The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has urged Arab and African parliaments to present the moderate and tolerant approach of their religions to the other world cultures to dispel misunderstanding and extremism towards Arab, Islamic and African cultures.

In a working paper before the 13th Afro-Arab Parliamentary Conference in Rabat, Morocco, member of the UAE Federal National Council (FNC) Sultan Al Shamsi said Arab and African MPs were also asked to promote the culture of peace, tolerance and understanding for greater cross-cultural and religious interaction.
