Summary
The United Arab Emirates (UAE), a leadership transition now complete, undertook
its first major electoral process in December 2006, although with a small, hand-picked
electorate and for a body with limited powers. The UAE’s open economy and society
has won praise but has contributed to proliferation, terrorist transiting, and human
' open economy and society have won praise, but lax
enforcement of some laws is causing U.S. concern over proliferation of advanced
technology to Iran; terrorist transiting; and human trafficking, particularly in the emirate of Dubai. Since March 2005, the United States
and UAE have been negotiating a free trade agreement (FTA), although talks are making
only slow progress. This report will be updated. See also CRS Report RL31533, The
Persian Gulf States, Post-War Issues for U.S. Policy, 2006, by Kenneth Katzman.

Governance, Human Rights, and Reform1
The UAE is a federation of seven emirates (principalities): Abu Dhabi, the capital

capital of the federation; Dubai, its free-trading commercial hub; and the five smaller and less
less wealthy emirates of Sharjah; Ajman; Fujayrah; Umm al-Qawayn; and Ras al-Khaymah.

joined in 1972. The UAE federation has completed a major leadership transition
following the
death of its key founder, Shaykh Zayid bin Sultan Al Nuhayyan, long-time
ruler of Abu
Dhabi and UAE President, on November 2, 2004. His son, Crown Prince
Shaykh Khalifa
bin Zayid al-Nuhayyan, now about 60 years old, was immediately named ruler of Abu
Dhabi and, keeping with tradition, was subsequently selected by all seven emirates as
UAE president. The third son of Zayid, Shaykh Mohammad bin Zayid al-Nuhayyan, is
Abu Dhabi Crown Prince and heir apparent. The ruler of Dubai traditionally serves
concurrently as Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE; that position was held byhas been
held by Mohammad bin Rashid Al Maktum, architect of Dubai’s modernization drive,
since the death of his elder brother Maktum bin Rashid Al Maktum on January 5, 2006.

Shaykh Maktum bin Rashid Al Maktum (son of and successor to UAE co-founder Shaykh
Rashid bin Sa’id Al Maktum) from October 8, 1990, until his death on January 5, 2006.
He was succeeded in all his positions by his younger brother, Mohammad bin Rashid Al
Maktum, architect of Dubai’s modernization drive. Shaykh MohammadMohammad bin Rashid also retained his
position as UAE Defense Minister in the
cabinet named on February 9, 2006.
Each emirate has its own leadership (Sharjah and Ras al-Khaymah have a common
ruling family, the Al Qawasim tribe); all seven leaders sit on the Federal Supreme
Council, the UAE’s highest decision-making body. It meets four times per year to
establish general policy guidelines, although the leaders of the seven emirates consult
frequently with each other. The other leaders are Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qassimi
(Sharjah); Saqr bin Muhammad Al Qassimi (Ras al-Khaymah); Humaid bin Rashid Al
Nuaimi (Ajman); Hamad bin Muhammad Al Sharqi (Fujayrah); and Rashid bin Ahmad
Al-Mu’alla (Umm al-Qawayn).
TheIn part because of its small size — its population is about 4.4 million, of which only
about 900,000 are citizens — the UAE is one of the wealthiest of the Gulf states, with a
gross domestic product
(GDP) per capita of about $2255,000 per year, and it has seen almost no unrest (purchasing power
parity). Islamist
movements in UAE, including those linked to the Muslim Brotherhood,
are generally
non-violent and perform social and relief work. However, UAE is surrounded by several
powers that dwarf it in size and strategic capabilities, including Iran, Iraq, and Saudi
Arabia, which has a close relationship with the UAE but views itself as the leader of the
Gulf monarchies. The population of the UAE is about 3.8 million, of which only about
800,000 are citizens, reflecting the heavy reliance on foreign (mostly South Asian) labor.
The UAE has long lagged behind the other Persian Gulf states in political reform,
but the federation, and several individual emirates, are beginning to move forward. The
most significant reform, to date, was announced in November 2005, when the UAE
government decided to begin electing half of the 40-seat Federal National Council
(FNC); the other 20 seats will be appointed. Previously, members of the FNC were
non-violent and perform social and relief work. Despite or perhaps because
of the lack of significant opposition, the UAE has long lagged on political reform, but it
has now begun to move forward. The most significant reform, to date, took place in
December 2006, when limited elections were held for half of the 40-seat Federal National
Council (FNC); the other 20 seats continue to be appointed. Previously, all 40 members
of the FNC were appointed by all seven emirates, weighted in favor of Abu Dhabi and
Dubai (eight seats
each). Sharjah and Ras al-Khaymah have six each; and the others have
four seats each.
In three rounds of voting during December 2006 In the December 2006 voting, a 6,690-person “electorate” (100 persons
for each FNC seat each emirate has, withelectors
per FNC seat; each elector appointed by emirate leaderships)
chose among 438456 candidates for the 20 FNC elected seats. There were 65 female
candidates, but only one was elected. Because of the relatively controlled process, the
elected members are not assertively challenging established UAE leaders on major issues.
Another eight women were appointed to the remaining 20 seats, filling out the postelection FNC
for the 20 FNC elected seats. 1,200 of the electors were female, as were 65 candidates
were female, but only one woman won (from Abu Dhabi). Another eight women were
appointed to the remaining 20 seats. Plans are to expand the size of the FNC and then to
broaden its powers,
according to the Minister of State for FNC Affairs Anwar Gargash,
who was appointed
in early 2006 to manage the new FNC reforms. Currently, theThe FNC can review,
but not
enact or veto, federal legislation, and it can question, but not impeach, federal cabinet
ministers
cabinet ministers. Since the election, the FNC has questioned government ministers on
inflation and other mainly economic and social issues. Its sessions are open to the public.
In addition to the FNC, each emirate has
its own consultative councilscouncil.
Despite the reforms, citizens still do not have the right to form political parties.
Freedom of assembly is forbidden , but
there has been little unrest among the citizenry. UAE citizens are able to express their
concerns directly to the leadership through traditional consultative mechanisms, such as
the open majlis (council) held by many UAE leaders. Freedom of assembly is forbidden
by law, but in practice small demonstrations on
working conditions and some other issues
have been tolerated; in 2006 foreign laborers
on a major Dubai tower project conducted a strike protesting poor working conditions and
non-payment of wages. However, UAE citizens are able to express their concerns directly

construction projects in Dubai have conducted strikes to protest poor working conditions
and non-payment of wages. Some of these concerns have been or are being addressed by
the Labor Ministry’s recent penalizing of employers.
Progress on women’s political rights has been more rapidsteady. Since the November
2004 2004
death of Shaykh Zayid, two women have been appointed to the cabinet: Shayha
Lubna al-QassimialQassimi, Minister of Economy and Planning, and Mariam al-Roumi, Minister
of Social
Affairs. In Sharjah emirate, seven women now serve on its 40-seat consultative
council, up from five previously. council.

to accelerating to reform, including the appointment of the reform-mindedreformminded Shaykh Abdullah
bin Zayid al-Nuhayyan as Foreign Minister in 2007. His former
post of Information Minister was
abolished in 2006 in favor of allowing fullto allow media independence.
On other areas, the UAE record is less positive. The referenced State Department
reports point out numerous restrictions such as on free assembly, freedom of speech, and
workers’ rights, and flogging penalties imposed by some courts. On religious freedom,
non-Muslims in UAE are free to practice their religion; there are 24 Christian churches
built on land donated by the ruling families of the various emirates, but there are no
Jewish synagogues or Buddhist temples. The Shiite Muslim minority (about 15% of the
population) is free to worship and maintain its own mosques, but Shiite mosques receive
no government funds and there are no Shiites in top federal positions. In 2007, human
rights groups heavily criticized the justice system, still dominated by conservatives, for
allegedly threatening to prosecute a 15 year old French expatriate for homosexuality, a
crime in UAE, when he was raped by two UAE men; both UAE men were later sentenced
for kidnaping and sexual assault.
The Bush Administration says it is promoting democracy, rule of law, and civil
society in the Persian Gulf region. However, the 20062007 democracy promotion report does
not contain a section on the UAE, apparently reflecting official UAE reluctance to support
U.S. efforts to promote reform there. Some programs to promote student and women’s
political participation, entrepreneurship, legal reform, civil society, independent media,
and international trade law compliance, are funded by the State Department’s Middle East
Partnership Initiative (MEPI).
Other social problems might be a result of the relatively open economy of the UAE,
particularly in Dubai. The Trafficking in Persons report for 2007 again2008 placed the UAE
on “ in “Tier
2 (up from Tier 2/Watch List” (up in 2007 and from Tier 3 in 2005) because it does not comply
with the
minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking but is making significant
efforts to
do so. The UAE is considered a “destination country” for women trafficked
from Asia
and the former Soviet Union. However, in December 2006, Shaykh Khalifa issued a
comprehensiveThe higher rating appeared to be a recognition
of some UAE implementation of a December 2006 law prohibiting trafficking in persons.
The UAE also has made progress
in curbing trafficking of young boys as camel jockeys:
it has repatriated at least 1,050
children out of a suspected 5,000 trafficked for camel
racing, provided $3 million for their
care and repatriation, and it has begun using robot
jockeys at camel races.
Cooperation Against Terrorism and Proliferation
The UAE was one of only three countries (Pakistan and Saudi Arabia were the
others) to have recognized the Taliban during 1996-2001 as the government of
Afghanistan. During Taliban
rule (1996-2001) rule, the UAE allowed Ariana Afghan airlines to operate service to UAE,

Since then, the UAE has publicly acknowledged assisting in the 2002 arrest of senior
Al Qaeda operative in the Gulf, Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri.3 The Since then, the UAE has been credited in U.S. reports (State Department

In December 2004, the United
States and Dubai signed a Container Security Initiative
Statement of Principles, aimed at
screening U.S.-bound containerized cargo transiting
Dubai ports. Under the agreement,
five U.S. Customs officers are co-located with the Dubai
Customs Intelligence Unit at
Port Rashid in Dubai.
Possibly on the strength of UAE-U.S. cooperation, anAn inter-agency “Committee on
Foreign Investment in the United States” in
February 2006 approved the takeover by the Dubai-owned
“Dubai Ports World” company
of a British firm that manages port facilities in New York,
New Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami, and Philadelphia. Bi-partisan opposition
to the dealsix U.S. port facilities. Members, concerned that the

House Appropriations Committee (62-2) on a provision

. The provision was contained in P.L. 109-234,
causing the company to divest assets involved in U.S. port operations. That divestiture occurred (divestment
completed in late 2006 (to AIG Global
Investments). In September 2007, the Dubai stock exchange (Borse Dubai) announced
it plans to take a 20% stake in the Nasdaq stock market, although the announcement
appeared to generate less opposition than did the earlier ports deal.

a November 2007 investment of $7.5 billion in Citigroup by the Abu Dhabi Investment

In connection with revelations of illicit sales of nuclear technology to Iran, Libya,
and North Korea by
Pakistan’s nuclear scientist A.Q. Khan, Dubai was named as a key
transfer point for
Khan’s shipments of nuclear components. Two Dubai-based companies
were apparently
involved in trans-shipping such components: SMB Computers and Gulf Technical
Technical Industries.4 On April 7, 2004, the Administration sanctioned a UAE firm, Elmstone
Elmstone Service and Trading FZE, for allegedly selling weapons of mass destruction-related
destructionrelated technology to Iran, under the Iran-Syria Non-Proliferation Act (P.L. 106-178). Because
of these cases, in February 2007 the Administration threatened to include UAE in a new
designation of “countries of concern for diversion” of WMD-capable exports — with
unspecified penalties. In connection with the FNC approval of a law strengthening export
controls (April 2007), the Administration did not so designate the UAE. In September
2007, the UAE used the new law to shut down 40 foreign and UAE firms allegedly
involved in illegal dual use exports to Iran and other countries.
Defense and Foreign Policy Cooperation
More recently, in June 2006, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) released a general
order imposing a license requirement on Mayrow General Trading Company and related
enterprises in the UAE. This was done after Mayrow was implicated in the transhipment
of electronic components and devices capable of being used to construct improvised
explosive devices (IED) used in Iraq and Afghanistan.5 In February 2007 the
Administration threatened to form a new category of control called “Destinations of
Diversion Control” with UAE as the intended designee country. In connection with the
FNC approval of a law strengthening export controls (April 2007), the Administration did
not create that category. In September 2007, the UAE used the new law to shut down 40
foreign and UAE firms allegedly involved in dual use exports to Iran and other countries.
Defense and Foreign Policy
Following the 1991 Gulf war to oust Iraqi forces from Kuwait, the UAE, whose
armed forces number about 61,000, determined that it wanted a closer relationship with
the United States, in part to deter and balance out Iranian naval power. UAE fears
escalated in April 1992, when Iran asserted complete control of the largely uninhabited

Persian Gulf island of Abu Musa, which it and the UAE shared under a 1971 bilateral
agreement. (In 1971, Iran, then ruled by the U.S.-backed Shah, seized two other islands,
Greater and Lesser Tunb, from the emirate of Ras al-Khaymah, as well as part of Abu
Musa from the emirate of Sharjah.) The UAE wants to refer the dispute to the
International Court of Justice (ICJ), but Iran insists on resolving the issue bilaterally. The
United States is concerned about Iran’s military control over the islands and supports
UAE proposals, but the United States takes no position on sovereignty of the islands. The
UAE, particularly Abu Dhabi, has long feared that the large Iranian-origin community in
Dubai emirate (est. 400,000 persons) could pose a “fifth column” threat to UAE stability.
Illustrating the UAE’s
attempts to avoid antagonizing Iran, in May 2007, Iranian President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was
permitted to hold a rally for Iranian expatriates in Dubai
when he made the first high level
visit to UAE since UAE independence in 1971.
The framework for U.S.-UAE defense cooperation is a July 25, 1994, bilateral

Iraq (1991-2003), the
UAE allowed U.S. equipment pre-positioning and U.S. warship
visits at its large Jebel Ali
port, capable of handling aircraft carriers. The UAE allowed

In June 2008, it appointed an Ambassador to Iraq, the first Arab country to do so, and the
following month it wrote off $7 billion (including interest) in Iraqi debt. Small numbers
of UAE forces contribute to U.S. combat in Afghanistan. Suggesting it wants to broaden
its defense relations, in January 2008 the UAE signed an agreement with French President
Nicolas Sarkozy to allow a French air and naval base near Abu Dhabi, which will
reportedly be used by about 400 French military personnel. It also that month hosted the
first ever visit to the UAE by a NATO Secretary-General.

U.S. military aid, but the IMET requested for FY2008 is to enable UAE to receive
discount pricing to send its military contain Iran: they include refurbished
E-2C early warning aircraft ($437 million value) and advanced Patriot anti-missile
systems (PAC-3, up to $9 billion value), both notified December 4, 2007; and various
munitions including Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) kits ($326 million value),
notified January 3, 2008. UAE is too wealthy to receive U.S. military aid, but IMET
enables the UAE to receive a discount to send its officers to U.S. courses.
Economic Issues
The UAE, a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), has developed a free
market economy. Dubai’s Jebel Ali Free Trade Zone, begun in 1994, has become the fifth
largest such zone in the world, attracting over 900 international companies. On

begun negotiating a free
trade agreement (FTA) with the UAE. Several rounds of talks have been held, although

were held prior to the June 2007 expiration of Administration “trade promotion
authority,” but progress had been halting, mainly because UAE feels it does not need the pact to keep its
economy vibrant and it is not willing to make some reforms, such as labor reform. The
Dubai Ports World controversy further slowed the talks. Despite diversification, the
UAE’s federal budget continues to rely on oil exports, which account for one third of
GDP. Abu Dhabi has 80% needs the
FTA enough to warrant making major labor and other reforms. Despite diversification,
oil exports still account for one-third of the UAE’s federal budget. Abu Dhabi has 80%
of the federation’s proven oil reserves of about 100 billion
barrels, enough for over 100
years of exports at the current production rate of 2.2 million
barrels per day (mbd). Of that
amount, about 2.1 mbd are exported, but negligible
amounts go to the United States. The
UAE does not have ample supplies of natural gas,
and it has entered into a deal with
neighboring gas exporter Qatar to construct pipeline
that will bring Qatari gas to UAE
(Dolphin project).
