The enduring partnership between Seychelles and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) took centre stage as Seychelles' President Wavel Ramkalawan attended a reception celebrating the UAE's 53rd National Day at the Savoy Resort and Spa in Beau Vallon on Sunday. Hosted by UAE Chargé d’Affaires to Seychelles, Ahmed Alnayadi, the event was attended by dignitaries including former President Danny Faure, Vice President Ahmed Afif, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Roger Mancienne, members of the diplomatic corps, and other high-ranking officials. Highlighting the significance of the occasion, Alnayadi described the UAE’s National Day as a celebration of progress and ambition and “celebrates the UAE’s people’s journey towards a better future by honouring today’s pioneers and inspire tomorrow’s leaders, embracing the causes of sustainability and teamwork, carrying the spirit of connection, work and achievements that form the foundation of our forefathers.” UAE Chargé d’Affaires to Seychelles, Ahmed Alnayadi.

He also underscored the nation's commitment to fostering peace and preserving cultural heritage through collaborations with international organisations like UNESCO. The UAE's relationship with Seychelles, Alnayadi noted, is built on “a strong bond of friendship rooted in cooperation and mutual respect.” This sentiment was echoed by Seychelles’ Minister for Foreign Affairs and Tourism, Sylvestre Radegonde, who praised the UAE as “a global leader in innovation, economic diversification, and sustainable development.” Radegonde acknowledged the many recent benefits Seychelles has gained from the UAE’s support, highlighting contributions such as medical equipment for La Digue Hospital, scholarships for Seychellois students, and capacity-building initiatives.

Seychelles and the UAE established formal diplomatic ties in 1982, but connections between the two nations predate this, with Seychellois working in the Emirates, including roles within royal households, fostering deeper bonds. This year’s celebration in Seychelles served as a testament to the enduring friendship and dynamic collaboration between the two nations, united by shared values and aspirations for peace, prosperity, and progress.
