The West Asian monarchy is crucial to the economic expansion of the largest democratic country in the world, as seen by the billions of dollars in remittances sent by the roughly four million Indian expatriates living in the United Arab Emirates.Furthermore, Quamar declared that "Asia today is the nerve center of the international economy," meaning that the economic collaboration between the UAE and India would only grow and expand into other areas as part of the BRICS.
