Ali Al Dhaheri, the United Arab Emirates Ambassador to China, recently shared his views with China Daily website and China Arab TV on China's development, the Belt and Road Initiative, mutual investment and Chinese culture.
Before coming to China, Dhaheri thought he knew China very well, but by the time he started working here, he saw how rapid the development was. Dhaheri said he "admire" China's technological development and that's what impresses him most.
