White House national security spokesperson John Kirby said the visit would be the first-ever by a president of the Gulf Arab country to Washington, adding that Vice President Kamala Harris would meet separately with the UAE leader.
Discussions would also focus on climate, clean energy, and UAE's role as a partner in the Group of Seven's global infrastructure partnership, Kirby told reporters.
Kirby also said on Wednesday that the US remains involved in intensive diplomatic efforts to prevent an escalation of the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, and said the US was not involved in the hand-held radio and pager device blasts.
