you get a glimpse of the past, present and future in the uae. and then you moved to the louvre abu dhabi, a beautiful universal museum. there, you basically see a part of you on an equal pedestal with the entire world. and then you leave to the guggenheim louvre, a contemporary art museum focusing on art from the late 1940's to today but looks at it from a truly global perspective. you will see art that will be side by artists from kenya and the philippines and all around the world. we wanted to make sure art inside the guggenheim abu dhabi is showcased in a south perspective. david: why not just build one? why do you have an affiliation with guggenheim? what can they do for you? mohamed: a mixture of things, similar to the louvre. working side-by-side with the team in the guggenheim new york and working on how we can detail this museum together. compounded by that you are taking years and blueprints of acquisition committees and other committees and taking them and evolving them to your wants and needs. david: museums are great. i am involved w

you get a glimpse of the past, present and future in the uae. from there you maneuver yourself to the louvre abu dhabi, a beautiful universal museum. it is universal in its thematic approach. there you see a part of you on equal pedestal with the entire world. and then you leave to the guggenheim louvre, a contemporary art museum focusing on art from the late 1940's to today. but it looks at it from a truly global perspective. yes, you will see art from pollock, but it is going to be side-by-side with artists -- side-by-side with artists from kenya and the philippines and all around the world. we wanted to make sure art inside the guggenheim abu dhabi is showcased from a truly global south perspective. david: if you are building a contemporary art museum, why did you have an affiliation with guggenheim? what can they do for you? mohamed: it is a mixture of things, similar to the louvre. first is transfer of knowledge, working side-by-side with that fantastic team in the guggenheim new york and working on how we can detail this museum together. c

in the uae with companies like g-42. they may also be cooperating with us on other important american priorities, but that is not a good reason to approve the sale of advanced weapons to the uae at a time that the uae is reportedly aiding and abetting ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity in the sudan. that's why i have filed what's known as a joint resolution of disapproval, known by its shorthand jrd, on the biden administration's requests to sell offensive weapons, including rockets and missiles worth $1.2 billion, to the united arab emirates. in the house of representatives, congresswoman sarah jacobs has filed a similar resolution, and both of us have introduced additional legislation on this issue. and i would submit that if any senator is serious about ending the suffering in sudan, we should not object sending weapons to any country -- in this case, the uae -- that is arming those engaged in eliminating nick cleansing -- ethnic cleansing there. a lot of as if in morning business have talked about the need

that is that makes the uae special. what is next for us?id: let's suppose you were to summarize what you would like the average person in the world to know about abu dhabi. what is the message you want to convey about this country? mohamed: seeing is believing. the fact of the matter is, we hear a lot of things, but in reality, take a step further. do your research and come. because once you see what is happening here, it is very special. it is a place that is really a place of belonging, a place of connectivity, a place of understanding. and everything we are doing is for the next generation, and the generation after that. i would love for everybody to be a part of that with us. ♪ ♪♪ ♪ three little birds ♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ something has changed within me ♪ ♪ it's time to try defying gravity ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ anna: welcome to bloomberg's "women, money and power" event in london. i'm anna edwards. for the first time ever, bloomberg is bringing together the most influential female voices in finance from around the world to debate and discuss the biggest

mohamed: slightly over 11 million people in uae. we are a little over 3.5 million people in the capital city. david: your position is to make sure people come here and not just understand the attractions but building a lot of things. how long have you been in this position? mohamed: i have been at the department of culture and tourism close to 10 years and i am humbled and lucky to be working for a government that has visionary ideas. the vision of investing in culture and institutions, not just set forth in recent times but from the inception of the country. enhancing with entertainment projects, projects at theme parks, public parks, beaches, etc., has involved -- evolved. david: when did abu dhabi become an independent country? mohamed: as a country, 1971, but the history of his people have dated back thousands of years. david: the founder of the country? mohamed: he was a visionary man and through his vision you see the country being created, it caters to the wants and needs of its people. it's can story is continued on by his s

david: so they uae is part of what is called the gulf cooperation council. a number of countries blessed with having some oil. they include saudi arabia, oman, kuwait, qatar and bahrain. are these other countries jealous saying don't bring all these tourists just to your country, because they don't have anything quite like you have. do they ever mention this to you? mohamed: on the contrary, we've heard outside press talk about competition between even abu dhabi and dubai but the fact of the matter is we all are complementary. similar to what we see in places like the u.s. or even europe, the bucket list is to go to new york, los angeles, chicago, new orleans, the list goes on. same thing in europe. paris, london, rome, milan. the list goes on. when it comes to this region, it is widely connected. it is in close proximity to each other. so the tourists in reality will go to dubai, abu dhabi, riyadh, so we are really all complementing each other with different experiences. david: let's talk about another side of your life, building or refurbishing hotels or a

, when asked if he was in the uae, said he's on his own.idn't deny that he's in the uae, but he did not say that he would be there as the protege of the uae government so again, we don't quite know where he is what we understand from the turkish government and the foreign minister is that we know that last night there was a big, long several hours long meeting between the turkish foreign minister, the iranian foreign minister, the russians are and and and others. clearly, the the qatar prime minister as well on how to take this forward. the saudi foreign minister as well. and i think what they all want to do is what they're saying is that they want to be in some kind of conversation in order to make sure that this proceeds in the most positive way possible. they said that they've also been in touch with u.s. officials now you know, let's not forget that this took everybody by surprise including the united states. just days ago or even hours ago, the u.s. and others were saying, bashar has won this war. and by the way, let's try to get him a

has, um, the senior advisor to the president of the uae, anwar gargash, has said that the uae wantso be supportive of the syrian people moving forward, but they've expressed concern over the islamist nature of the government and potential ties to the muslim brotherhood. past ties to al qaeda. so they're kind of putting the government on notice, saying that we're ready to help, but we're also going to be watching what you do and say because of the history and because of your past. and of course, we can't have a discussion about syria's regional uh, neighbors without talking about israel, because as we've discussed before, israel, um, very quickly after the fall of assad, went in and started taking an additional buffer zone in syria, trying to secure its own safety. but the way that they've been going about it has really upset people in syria, because they're seeing it as a sign, as basically the opposite of a sign of goodwill. on one hand, you can understand the israelis being concerned about their safety. given the nature of the new government. but the way that they've been going ab

the uae has been investing heavily in africa. there is an opportunity to lever age these partnerships, but there might be competitors that are more willing to take losses now. what is to be done? i want to leave you with some good news. coordination and prioritization both at home in each of the countries and collectively. there is positive developments that have materialized in things like the mineral security partnership with other like-minded countries, there is interaction between government and business about where the problem points are. i think this is important. there's several pieces of legislation in front of congress right now that are trying to coordinate efforts within the u.s. government in this space. the work -- and even just coming up with a common list of which minerals are prioritized. also, part of coordination and prioritization is saying that there are not only some that are more important, but some that the u.s. and canada should focus on less. permitting reform, a big one. we haven't explicitly talked a lo

he thought he would be talking to the leaders of the uae and saudi arabia about trade. now it certainly looks like he's going to be focused instead on geopolitical situation indeed. angela rayner in her interview did talk about the fact that we would be working with our international partners to discuss what would be best to support the future of syria in terms of what she described as a kind of political solution to the situation along the lines of the u.n. resolutions that have been passed. going on to talk about the importance of democracy and a government which represents the interests of the syrian people. obviously under the regime of president assad that hasn't been the case. priti patel going a little bit further, really, saying that the government should be working to ensure the right kind of government outcomes in syria going forward. but i think obviously there is a little bit of treading quite carefully around this because clearly everyone knows the history of the uk, attempts to get involved in the middle east in terms of the falls of dictators. in libya, f

. >> now we have to remember there has been tradition really, in saudi arabia and sometimes in the uaeictators will leave and it spares the country from more unrest and killing. and so doctor anwar gargash was responding to a question about that. and he said, where bashar al-assad ends up will be a footnote in history. and i think that's actually true many people care about it syrians care about it. but the reality is the regime as it was, is over and actually, what's really interesting. a week ago, nobody knew. i don't think most people knew the name of the syrian prime minister. the fact that he stayed put out a video and said, i'm here, i'm going to try to help with this transition period. he will become more significant for this moment than where bashar al assad ends up. >> it's been fantastic having you. thank you very much indeed. couldn't have done a better than having mina al arabi with me in this hour on cnn. as we continue to cover the breaking news in syria, which has such influence for syria, syrians and this wider region, we will be back right after this you only come acro

you are speaking to us from the uae on your way to syria for the first time in over a decade.ll that be like for you? thank you for hosting me. actually you cannot mix all of these emotions together. it is the joy, the happiness, the question mark of the future. the spirit of initiation, what we should do, and at the same time, what does it mean to start the process itself, the process of democracy and for a new syria. for me it has been 13 years that i have been out. and i cannot even imagine the emotion i will get once i am standing in damascus. katrina: just on that point you make about rebuilding syria, there is an awful lot of work for stabilization and so on. where does that need to begin? abir: conciliation. we need to put our focus into two main areas, conflict prevention, which might happen because of all of these years of isolation. syrians were isolated in different areas and authorities. and now we are all coming back together again. there is uncertainty of what will happen in the future. we do not know from where to start. we have been doing a lot of preparation,

there needs to be quick movement by moderate arabs, uae, saudi arabia, qatar, egypt, to move ward theted nations with a package for transition that gives u.n. stamp to what comes next. if that happens, then i would be fairly hopeful that we'll see a transition to a syria that begins to come back together and work as a country. >> admiral, the syrian army collapsed. how involved does the u.s. have to be? there were 75 air strikes yesterday against isis. do you also control the chemical weapons, russian bases, the ports, as well as the stockpiles of rockets and missiles that israeli are saying very concerned about. >> yeah. i think the united states has three interests at the moment. one is the chemical weapons and the israelis are in my view off to a good start, just evaporating those, but we need to make sure those don't end up in the hands of terrorists. er two, the islamic state still active in eastern syria. that's why we have several hundred troops there battling them. we don't want, as david said a moment ago, a power vacuum could emerge that could reignite the islamic state. we

turkey, the uae, saudi arabia don't necessarily see eye to eye on what comes next in syria, and that's an opportunity for the u.s. because part of why we ended up here is because the u.s. did not have a strategy over the last decade. you could say, and allowed a void to be filled by syria, by iran, hezbollah and russia when it decided to step back in 2013 and 2015. >> stay with us. this is all fascinating. when we come back, i want to ask our guests about the new superpower of the middle east, and i'll explain that when we come back from luther, never too much new years day at eight on cnn. >> for more than a decade, pozega has been trusted again and again and again. pozega. ask your doctor about pozega. >> i've got this. >> hey, susan. toothbrush. big interview, huh? nice new suit, new haircut, ancient bristle stick. make the sonicare switch. all right, now go knock em dead. boss, can i get the wi-fi? am i hang here? >> dear doctor kay, i used to think i was never meant to be beautiful. i was teased because of my teeth. i didn't like the person looking back at me in the mirror. i neve

. >> shortly after the ceasefire was announced the uae national outlet published what it said was a ceasefire agreement. was that i could? >> i'm not going to speak to the publicly. we often see outlets report on various documents sometimes her final drafts, sometimes that address along the way but i'm not going to convert. >> is it not in the public interest to make sure everybody is towing the line to see what is agreed -- >> we have mechanism in place to mature april and toes the line. we will. >> the corresponding bank agreement between israel and the palestinian authority, the minister said he got a guarantee from the u.s. they wouldn't take any further action secure a causa gets israel. whether any agreements, negotiations in place to get this correspondent bank banking agreement extended for your? >> so we had really intense discussions with the government of israel about extending this correspondent banking agreement. much more intense conversation that should've been necessary. there is, obviously the revocation of this agreement would have had disastrous effects for palestinians in

a lot of cash, billions have gone into the uae and the middle east is the rules are clear and a ton ofved over the critically unclear regulation, that means people will move their talent back to the u.s. i more important, crypto will play a big part and what were going to do next. the second is the crypto active be proposed this is a certain percentage of the u.s. reserve will be held in bitcoin and that's what's driving the price up anything else. then we seen quietly in the background, the institutional investors that have actually made large purchases in bitcoin and put those into their holdings already in anticipation of that. this run-up will continue past the 100,000 and maybe even $200,000 per coin. jack: let's turn to a.i. massive sums being spent on ships and data centers. sometimes i hear ordinary consumers will look at the latest a.i. features on the iphone and they say no big with. as long as a.i. money being wise and spent, what are the next types of companies to benefit from this. >> you are absolutely right, the money is being spent for chips in future will be spent to t
