UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan affirmed on Wednesday his country's position rejecting any attempts aimed at displacing the Palestinian people from their land.

During his meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, he reiterated the necessity of linking the Gaza reconstruction process to a path leading to comprehensive and lasting peace based on the "two-state solution", as it is the way to achieve stability in the region.

The meeting also touched on a number of regional and international issues of common interest, developments in the Middle East, especially developments in the occupied Palestinian territories, and efforts made towards the crisis in the Gaza Strip and its repercussions on regional peace, stability and security.
