The guidelines stress the significance of international cooperation. 

As the current Chair of the Counter-Terrorism Committee, the UAE played a critical role in facilitating this critical endeavor, demonstrating its commitment to advancing global peace and security. Her Excellency Ambassador Lana Nusseibeh, Permanent Representative of the UAE to the United Nations, commented on the historic adoption, saying, "In light of a changing technological landscape, the Abu Dhabi Guiding Principles are a decisive step taken by the United Nations towards combating terrorist possession and use of drones."

The principles, which are part of a comprehensive approach, are expected to considerably improve the capabilities of member states and stakeholders in detecting, identifying, deterring, and responding to risks presented by unmanned aircraft systems. The UAE looks forward to continuing its collaboration with the international community to implement and assist
