Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum received here today, in presence of Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai Crown Prince, a delegation from the CNN International, led by its executive vice president and managing director Tony Maddox. Sheikh Mohammed reviewed with the delegation members issues related to regional and international media and economy, as well as the role of the visual media in bringing nations closer and highlighting the truth with great objectivity. Sheikh Mohammed welcomed CNN's move to open a station in Abu Dhabi, saying that the selection of UAE's capital as the fourth city to host the network's fourth centre after Atlanta, London and Hong Kong, was yet another proof of the UAE's respectable position in the world's political, economic and cultural map.
