Sheikh Abdullah met Catherine Colonna, Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs of France, Dr Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, Minister of External Affairs of India and Linda Thomas-Greenfield, United States ambassador to the United Nations.

The ministers reviewed bilateral relations and strategic partnerships in all sectors, including investment, finance, renewable energy, food security, culture, education and tourism.

During the meeting, Sheikh Abdullah said the UAE had good relations and a strategic partnership with India and France.

He said the three countries shared common visions and aspirations to achieve sustainable growth to achieve progress and prosperity for their people.

They also reviewed the role of the Abraham Accords in the region, while Sheikh Abdullah praised the work of the committee in promoting interfaith dialogue and spreading the values ​​of tolerance and coexistence.

Representatives of the American Jewish Committee said the UAE was advocating brotherhood across the world and the signing of the Abraham Accords was a historic step, which can enhance co-operation.

The meeting was attended by Yousef Al Otaiba, UAE's ambassador to the US.

Sheikh Abdullah also met Dr Comfort Ero, the president and chief executive of International Crisis Group, an independent organisation working to prevent war and shape policies to build a more peaceful world.

During their meeting, the UAE minister said the UAE was committed to supporting all global efforts to promote international peace and security.

Sheikh Abdullah said it was important to strengthen collective international action to promote solutions and strive for sustainable development.

He praised the work of the International Crisis Group and Dr Ero lauded the UAE's humanitarian initiatives and commitment to promoting international peace and security.

Dr Amal Khalid Alias revealed a recent case of a woman with daughters, who specifically wanted a boy.

A semen analysis of the father showed abnormal sperm so the couple required IVF.

Out of 21 eggs collected, six were unused leaving 15 suitable for IVF.

A specific procedure was used, called intracytoplasmic sperm injection where a single sperm cell is inserted into the egg.

On day three of the process, 14 embryos were biopsied for gender selection.

The next day, a pre-implantation genetic report revealed four normal male embryos, three female and seven abnormal samples.

Day five of the treatment saw two male embryos transferred to the patient.

The woman recorded a positive pregnancy test two weeks later.
