Turkey says the UAE is destabilising the Middle East through its interventions in Libya and Yemen along with its support of Al Shabab militants in Somalia
A man walks past the wreckage of government forces' vehicles destroyed by UAE air strikes near Aden, Yemen, August 30, 2019.
The United Arab Emirates, Egypt and some other countries including France back warlord Khalifa Haftar's militias, which are trying to topple the Libyan UN-backed government. "If you are asking who is destabilising this region, who is bringing chaos, then we would say Abu Dhabi without any hesitation," he said. "It is a reality that they are the force that unsettled Libya and destroyed Yemen."Ties between Turkey and the United Arab Emirates have been strained by Ankara's support for Qatar after four Arab countries including the UAE imposed sanctions on Doha in 2017 over its alleged support for militants, which Qatar denies.
The United Arab Emirates was also a leading power in an alliance which intervened in Yemen five years ago against the Iran-aligned Houthi movement. It reduced its presence in Yemen last year but remains a member of that alliance.
