    Chinese President Xi Jinping is scheduled to land in the UAE today for a three-day state visit, the first in nearly three decades, or since the public official was re-elected to office.

    President Xi is due to attend a series of high-level meetings, during which a number of bilateral agreements are expected to be signed.

    The Chinese ambassador to the UAE, Ni Jian, had said on Friday that the Chinese official’s visit is a milestone and is a reflection of the strong relationship between the two countries.

    “At present, the China-UAE relationship is at its best. It is an exemplary model of mutual respect, friendship and win-win cooperation,” Ni Jian said.

    The UAE is home to 200,000 Chinese expatriates and 4,000 trading companies. The bilateral trade between China and the UAE was estimated to be around $60 billion in 2015, up from $47.6 billion a year earlier.

    The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) had earlier noted a growing presence of Chinese firms in the emirate’s financial sector. It cited in a 2016 report that the Chinese banks in DIFC had doubled their balance sheet over an 18-month period.
