Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 State Department call explicitly stated the commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact on regional security and stability. Additional State Department releases from late January show active bilateral engagement on multiple fronts, indicating sustained interaction rather than a concluded milestone. Reliability note: State Department communications are primary sources for official bilateral engagements, though they reflect U.S. government framing and priorities.

Restated claim:
The United States and
United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan discussed ongoing coordination and the need to stay in close contact. Current status: The readout documents the intent to continue coordination, but publicly verifiable follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint initiatives, or formal statements) have not yet been identified in the record up to February 13, 2026. Dates and milestones: The key milestone cited is the January 30, 2026 readout; no further public milestones confirming concrete coordination actions have been published. Reliability note: The primary source is an official
U.S. government document, which reliably indicates the stated intent, though independent corroboration of subsequent actions is limited. Follow-up: Monitor State Department releases for any scheduled follow-up meetings, joint initiatives, or formal coordination documents between the U.S. and
UAE to establish verifiable ongoing coordination.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 01:51 PMin_progress
Summary of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, as stated in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout.
Evidence of progress: The readout confirms an explicit commitment to continued coordination and close contact. It also references ongoing discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen, and
Sudan, which implies continued bilateral engagement and coordination actions.
Status of completion: No verifiable milestones (such as scheduled follow-up meetings or joint statements) have been publicly documented. The completion condition requires observable, ongoing coordination actions that have not yet been publicly reported beyond the initial readout.
Dates and milestones: The key documented date is January 30, 2026. As of February 13, 2026, there are no public, concrete follow-up actions announced.
Source reliability note: The primary source is an official U.S. State Department readout, a high-reliability primary source for diplomatic communications. Corroboration from UAE official statements or independent outlets would strengthen verification, but has not been clearly public to date.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 12:14 PMin_progress
Summary of the claim: The
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, per the State Department readout of Secretary Rubio's January 30, 2026 call with
UAE officials.
Progress evidence and context: The official readout confirms a mutual commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact. There are no publicly disclosed follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or concrete initiatives) published by the State Department or UAE officials as of February 13, 2026.
Current status of the pledge: The agreement remains a bilateral policy stance rather than a completed set of verifiable actions. Without disclosed milestones, verification relies on future official statements or announcements.
Dates and milestones: The January 30, 2026 phone call is the only dated item. No subsequent public actions have been published to mark progress toward the completion condition.
Source reliability and notes: The primary source is the U.S. State Department Office of the Spokesperson, an official readout. UAE communications corroborate strong ties but do not yet establish concrete coordination milestones. Overall, the claim appears ongoing but not yet demonstrably completed.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 09:53 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence shows the January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirming ongoing coordination and close contact, and February 4, 2026 State Department materials documenting bilateral critical minerals cooperation including the UAE. The presence of MOUs and joint ministerial actions indicates concrete, verifiable coordination actions, though explicit scheduled follow-ups or joint statements beyond these items have not been publicly enumerated. Overall, the claim is currently in_progress given active engagements and no reported termination of coordination. Sources reflect primary U.S. government statements and corroborating ministerial material, which are reliable indicators of sustained engagement and policy alignment.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 06:53 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms this explicit commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact between Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The language used indicates a bilateral aim for persistent engagement rather than a one-off discussion.
Evidence of progress: The readout highlights substantive topics discussed, including the implementation of Phase Two of President Trump’s
Gaza peace plan, developments in
Yemen, the humanitarian ceasefire in
Sudan, and countering
Iran-backed threats. These items imply continued policy coordination on multiple flashpoints in the region, consistent with the stated goal of ongoing collaboration. The article explicitly says they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.”
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 04:37 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress includes a Jan 30, 2026 State Department call in which Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan affirmed continued coordination in support of regional security and stability and agreed to stay in close contact (State Dept, Jan 30, 2026). The same briefing cycle also notes engagement on
Sudan and the humanitarian ceasefire, signaling ongoing strategic dialogue between the two governments (State Dept, Jan 30, 2026). Separately, a Jan 27, 2026 State Department release highlights the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue and the UAE’s Pax
Silica integration, illustrating broad, multi-domain coordination between the two partners (State Dept, Jan 27, 2026).
Current status: There is public evidence of continued high-level engagement and a stated commitment to ongoing coordination, but no publicly verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or concrete initiatives) have been announced as of Feb 12, 2026. The absence of documented follow-up milestones leaves the completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions—unmet at this time (State Dept, Jan 30, 2026; State Dept, Jan 27, 2026).
Source reliability: The information derives from official U.S. State Department releases, which are primary sources for diplomatic actions and statements. These sources provide direct quotes and dates for engagements, making them the core basis for assessing progress (State Dept releases, Jan 27–Jan 30, 2026).
Incentives and context note: The U.S.-UAE partnership encompasses security, humanitarian, and economic dimensions. Publicly announced coordination efforts are often shaped by broader regional priorities (e.g., Sudan ceasefire diplomacy) and domestic political signaling; absence of public follow-ups may reflect strategic cadence rather than a failure, requiring continued monitoring for concrete milestones (State Dept releases, Jan 27–Jan 30, 2026).
Conclusion: The claim remains partially fulfilled in intent, with ongoing high-level dialogue pledged but no verifiable follow-up actions publicly documented as of early February 2026. The situation qualifies as in_progress pending further public milestones.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 03:01 AMin_progress
Restated claim. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout indicates that the Secretary of State and UAE Foreign Minister agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This frames the commitment as ongoing rather than a one-off statement.
Evidence of progress. The readout confirms a mutual intent to sustain coordination, but provides no specific, verifiable milestones (e.g., meetings, joint statements, or concrete initiatives) within the public record up to February 12, 2026. There are related public signals of ongoing U.S.–UAE security alignment in other contexts (e.g., high-level dialogues and joint statements in the broader regional security space), but none cited as direct follow-up to this particular pledge.
Assessment of completion status. There is no documented evidence by 2026-02-12 of scheduled follow-up meetings, joint initiatives, or formalized coordination actions tied explicitly to this claim. Without verifiable actions or dates, the completion condition—ongoing coordination actions and documented continued contact—has not been demonstrated in publicly available records.
Dates and milestones. The sole dated item is the January 30, 2026 readout. No subsequent public communications (as of 2026-02-12) confirm a concrete milestone or timeline for further coordination. The absence of identifiable milestones suggests the process is in the early, continuing phase.
Source reliability and caveats. The primary source is an official State Department readout, a high-reliability government communication. While it confirms intent, it provides limited detail on concrete actions. Given the lack of publicly verifiable follow-up, interpretations should remain cautious about the rate and scope of progress beyond stated intent.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 12:25 AMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to “continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a formal commitment to ongoing engagement (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Evidence of concrete, ongoing engagement appears in related U.S.-UAE channels around the same period. On January 27, 2026, the U.S. and
UAE held their Eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue, signaling continued bilateral policymaking collaboration and regular high-level contact. The parties described reviewing bilateral cooperation on sanctions coordination and illicit finance, with the expectation of implementing the UAE-U.S. Treasury Engagement Framework later in 2026 (State Dept/Office of the Spokesperson, 2026-01-27; UAE MOFA, 2026-01-26).
Taken together, these items illustrate formal, ongoing coordination efforts and scheduled follow-on activities rather than a completed milestone. The readout explicitly commits to continued coordination, and the policy dialogue and related statements imply a structured cadence of meetings and joint initiatives to support regional security and stability (State Dept readouts, 2026-01-27 and 2026-01-30).
Reliability: The sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department) and the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which are primary and authoritative for diplomatic engagements. While they reflect stated intentions and scheduled activities, they do not by themselves confirm every concrete action or its outcomes; the completion condition—verifiable ongoing coordination actions—remains contingent on future follow-ups (State Dept readouts, 2026-01-27; 2026-01-30).
In summary, progress toward ongoing coordination is evidenced by formal commitments and recent high-level dialogues, indicating the relationship remains active and engaged. The present status should be monitored for explicit follow-up meetings or joint statements that would demonstrate measurable coordination milestones (State Dept readouts, 2026-01-27; 2026-01-30).
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 08:27 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This was stated in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary of State visit with
UAE officials, confirming they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Evidence of progress includes ongoing bilateral engagement, such as public disclosures of formal discussions and policy dialogues between the two governments. For example, the United States and UAE released a joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue in January 2026, reflecting continued high-level coordination on shared security and economic interests (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Additional concrete steps signaling ongoing coordination appeared in early February 2026, when UAE and
U.S. officials signed a
Framework on Securing Supply in the Mining and Processing of Critical Minerals and Rare Earths, underscoring deepening bilateral cooperation on critical technologies and economic security (UAE Embassy, 2026-02-04).
Taken together, these items show verifiable actions and ongoing contact between
Washington and
Abu Dhabi, though no single milestone marks final completion of the claim. The pattern of readouts, dialogues, and joint initiatives indicates sustained coordination rather than a one-off pledge.
Source reliability is high for official statements from the U.S. State Department and the UAE Embassy, which are primary communications of government policy. While language can emphasize continued cooperation, the public record to date demonstrates measurable actions and formalized engagement rather than opaque rhetoric.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 05:19 PMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This reflects language from a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of a call between Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 03:34 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: An official U.S. Department of State readout confirms the agreement during Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on January 30, 2026.
Status of completion: There is no public record of verifiable follow-up actions (e.g., follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) as of February 12, 2026, beyond the initial agreement to stay in contact.
Dates and milestones: The January 30, 2026 readout is the primary dated milestone; no subsequent actions have been publicly announced to demonstrate ongoing coordination.
Source reliability: The primary source is an official State Department readout, which is authoritative for diplomatic commitments. Cross-checks with UAE government communications are not publicly available at this time.
Overall assessment: The claim remains in_progress pending verifiable, ongoing coordination actions documented publicly.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 01:54 PMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The primary public evidence is a January 30, 2026 readout from the State Department noting that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes intent but not a quantified outcome. No verifiable, ongoing coordination actions beyond this commitment have been publicly documented in the period since the readout.
Progress indicators: The January 2026 readout confirms bilateral intent to sustain coordination, and subsequent public materials from U.S. or
UAE channels have continued to emphasize broad security partnership between the two countries. However, concrete, independently verifiable milestones such as scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or formalized coordinated actions explicitly linked to this claim have not been publicly reported as of February 12, 2026. The absence of a concrete timetable or issued joint action makes assessment of progress limited to maintained dialogue rather than demonstrable, scheduled coordination actions.
Reliability notes: The primary source is the U.S. State Department readout, an official and reliable reference for bilateral diplomacy. Cross-checks with UAE official outlets or reputable defense/foreign policy reporting have not yet produced documented follow-up actions tied directly to the January 2026 pledge. Given the incentive structure, both parties have an interest in maintaining stability and regional influence, which supports continued coordination, but the lack of published milestones suggests the status remains early-stage or under informal implementation.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 12:03 PMin_progress
Restating the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The referenced State Department release confirms ongoing high-level engagement and a commitment to sustained coordination between the two countries.
Evidence of progress: A related public signal is the January 27, 2026 joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue, describing continued collaboration on regional stability through coordinated policy efforts and mechanisms like Pax Silica, indicating ongoing strategic dialogue and joint action planning across security-adjacent domains.
What this implies for the completion condition: There is verifiable activity showing ongoing contact and joint initiatives, but explicit, published milestones for sustained security coordination (e.g., regular follow-up meetings or joint security statements) beyond general diplomatic dialogue are not clearly documented yet.
Dates and milestones: State Department release (Jan 30, 2026) and the Jan 27, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue statement provide concrete timestamps. They show a continuing process rather than a single completed action, with no separate announced completion event.
Reliability and caveats: The sources are official U.S. government communications, authoritative for intent and next steps but limited in independent verification of on-the-ground actions. Monitor subsequent State Department or White House statements for explicit follow-up meetings or actions demonstrating progress.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 09:54 AMin_progress
The claim restates that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination on regional security and to remain in close contact, with discussions covering
Gaza-related matters,
Yemen,
Sudan, and broader stability concerns. This establishes an ongoing commitment rather than a one-off statement.
Evidence of progress includes formalized, ongoing engagement channels and concrete initiatives. Notably, on February 4, 2026, the
U.S. and
UAE signed frameworks related to critical minerals and secure supply chains, demonstrating bilateral collaboration that intersects with broader security and economic considerations. While focused on trade and resilience, such frameworks reflect sustained high-level coordination between the two governments.
Additional time-bound actions suggesting continued coordination have appeared since the January readout. The February 2026 critical minerals ministerial announcements explicitly include the UAE among partner signatories, indicating a functioning mechanism for joint work and follow-up on shared interests that complements security and stability aims. These steps imply ongoing contact and coordination beyond symbolic statements.
Milestones identified include the January 30 readout affirming continued contact and the February 4, 2026 MOU/Framework signing, which provides verifiable, incremental actions that require regular follow-up and reporting. While these do not map to a single, explicit security peg, they represent structured, ongoing cooperation that supports the stated coordination goal across multiple domains.
Source reliability is high for the principal claim, as the State Department readout is an official government statement. Cross-checks with subsequent State Department material on bilateral cooperation and UAE-related frameworks further corroborate that coordination and contact persist, though the scope and immediacy of “regional security and stability” actions will depend on evolving regional dynamics.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 05:17 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of ongoing engagement exists in official U.S. state-to-state communications. On January 30, 2026, the State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan stated that they agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This explicitly confirms an intention to maintain regular contact and coordinated actions going forward (State Department readout, 2026-01-30).
Additional context for sustained cooperation comes from the January 27, 2026 Joint Statement on the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue. While focused on economic policy, the document underscores ongoing bilateral engagement across security-relevant domains, including counter illicit finance, sanctions coordination, and broader alignment on regional and multilateral matters, signaling a framework of continuous coordination between the two governments (State Department, 2026-01-27).
Taken together, these sources indicate verifiable, ongoing coordination efforts and regular contact at high levels, but there is no single published milestone (e.g., a scheduled follow-up meeting or joint public statement specifically on regional security) that conclusively marks completion of the coordination promise. The available records show a pattern of sustained engagement rather than a completed, discrete action.
Source reliability: The statements come from the U.S. Department of State’s official press releases and readouts, which are primary, authoritative sources for diplomatic coordination, and thus highly reliable for assessing the status of stated commitments (State Department, 2026-01-30; State Department, 2026-01-27).
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 03:49 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout states that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This follows a January 27, 2026 U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue statement that underscored ongoing bilateral engagement across security- and region-focused topics (State Dept readouts). The two sides have publicly described ongoing engagement across multiple forums, including meetings and joint statements, in the weeks around mid-January 2026. Reliability: The sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department releases), which directly reflect the policy stance and reported actions of the two governments. Completion status: There is clear evidence of ongoing contact and coordinated actions, but no fixed milestone or end date is identified; thus the claim remains in_progress rather than complete or failed. Context: The readouts address a broad spectrum of regional issues (
Gaza,
Sudan,
Yemen,
Iran-backed actions) and show a pattern of continued high-level coordination rather than a discrete completed action.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 02:11 AMin_progress
Claim restated: the
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence: a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan states they agreed to continue coordination and to stay in close contact, with discussion on
Gaza,
Sudan,
Yemen, and broader regional stability. Assessment: this confirms an agreed-intent to ongoing coordination but provides no documented, verifiable milestones (e.g., follow-up meetings or joint actions) to mark completion. Given the lack of concrete coordination actions to date in public records, the status remains in_progress; a future update with follow-up meetings or joint initiatives would signal completion. Reliability note: the source is an official U.S. government press release, which provides authoritative confirmation of the stated commitment.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 11:59 PMin_progress
Restating the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan confirms they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This signals an intent to sustain ongoing executive-level engagement.
Additional related progress: On January 27, 2026 the State Department released a joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue, with officials discussing operationalizing shared initiatives such as the Pax Silica framework to bolster supply chains and regional connectivity. This reflects expanding coordination across security-adjacent topics and strategic cooperation.
What remains unclear: There is no publicly documented, verifiable cadence of follow-up meetings or a formal completion milestone specific to the exact phrase of “continue coordination and remain in close contact.” Without scheduled follow-ups or joint actions tied to this exact promise, the status remains in_progress rather than complete.
Reliability notes: The sources are official U.S. government statements (State Department readouts and releases), which provide direct attribution to the ministries involved and explicit language about continued coordination. Cross-checks with independent outlets show corroborating coverage of the broader U.S.–UAE security partnership, but do not supersede the primary official statements.
Follow-up note: To assess completion, monitor for concrete follow-up engagements (e.g., new joint statements, scheduled meetings, or formal memoranda) within the next 1–2 months.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 09:21 PMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout on January 30, 2026 confirms this specific commitment, noting that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” (State Department Readout, 2026-01-30)
Evidence of progress so far is limited publicly to the stated intent of ongoing coordination and ongoing contact. There is no publicly documented schedule of follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives announced in the immediate aftermath of the January 30 readout. The absence of verifiable, concrete coordination actions makes the status difficult to confirm beyond the commitment to stay in touch.
The reliability of the source is high, as it is an official U.S. government readout from the State Department. Independent corroboration of specific subsequent coordination actions (e.g., a named follow-up meeting or joint initiative) is not evident in major,
non-State outlets as of February 11, 2026. Given the nature of diplomatic arrangements, the claim is best characterized as in_progress pending further public milestones.
Contextual notes on incentives suggest that both
Washington and Abu Dhabi have an interest in maintaining stable regional security arrangements and deterring threats, which aligns with the stated aim of ongoing coordination. If public follow-up actions appear (e.g., a scheduled meeting or joint statement), they would constitute verifiable progress toward the completion condition. Until such milestones are publicly announced, the claim remains in_progress with a need for additional verifiable actions.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 08:12 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination to support regional security and stability and to stay in close contact. The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan discussed ongoing engagement and “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a clear intent for sustained high-level coordination, but does not itself enumerate specific follow-up actions.
Evidence of progress toward this promise is limited in public records to the readout and related communications highlighting bilateral cooperation across security and regional issues. There is no publicly documented schedule of follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives tied directly to this coordination pledge as of February 11, 2026. Related U.S.-UAE communications emphasize ongoing partnership in broader security dialogues, but concrete, verifiable actions are not publicly enumerated.
The completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions such as scheduled follow-up meetings or coordinated initiatives—has not yet been publicly demonstrated. The January 30 readout notes continued coordination and close contact, but no specific milestones or dates are publicly published to verify ongoing actions. Absence of documented follow-ups does not negate the intent, but it means the claim remains in progress rather than completed.
Notable context from credible sources includes the State Department and related official releases describing bilateral security cooperation and leadership-level engagement. The UAE side has also publicly framed the partnership as enduring and strategic, with joint leaders’ statements reinforcing bilateral alignment on regional issues. Taken together, these sources support the interpretation that coordination is ongoing, with the understanding that public, verifiable milestones are not yet cataloged.
Reliability notes: the principal source is an official
U.S. government readout (State Department), which directly reiterates the pledge to maintain coordination. Cross-checks with related official statements from the UAE side (e.g., joint leaders’ statements) corroborate continued partnership rhetoric but do not add new verifiable milestones. Given the official nature of the source and the absence of contradictory reporting from reputable outlets, the assessment favors cautious optimism about continued coordination, pending publicly verifiable actions.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 05:33 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms Secretary Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed and they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” The call addressed
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and
Iran-backed threats, indicating ongoing bilateral coordination. A January 27, 2026 State Department release also highlights continued bilateral cooperation under the U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue, including sanctions coordination and related security frameworks.
Current status and milestones: There is no fixed completion date; the relationship shows ongoing engagement across multiple security tracks and regular high-level discussions. Evidence points to a durable, long-term partnership rather than a finite project, with no publicly announced end-point.
Source reliability note: The materials are official U.S. government communications (State Department readouts and press releases), which are primary sources for bilateral policy statements. They establish intent and actions but may not capture every initiative or provide exhaustive detail on future developments.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 03:24 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms this commitment (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Evidence of progress: The readout explicitly states intent to maintain coordination and close contact, establishing a formal bilateral aim (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Additional concrete steps: On February 4, 2026, the U.S. and
UAE signed a
Framework on Securing Supply in the Mining and Processing of Critical Minerals and Rare Earths, signaling ongoing coordination in a security-adjacent domain (UAE Embassy, 2026-02-04; State Dept, 2026-02-04).
Status of completion: There is no documented final completion milestone; available records show ongoing coordination actions and continued contact, consistent with the stated aim (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30; UAE Embassy, 2026-02-04).
Reliability note: The sources include official U.S. government communications and a coordinated UAE embassy release, making them primary references for the claimed coordination, though they do not imply universal or uninterrupted follow-through beyond cited milestones (State Dept, 2026-01-30; UAE Embassy, 2026-02-04).
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 01:57 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The State Department readout of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s January 30, 2026 call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan states they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a stated intent at the highest level and dates the commitment.
Current status: As of February 11, 2026, there are no publicly documented follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or announced initiatives) that concretely demonstrate ongoing coordination beyond the January 30 readout. Publicly available sources thus show the agreement to stay in contact but not verifiable, ongoing coordination actions.
Dates and milestones: The only explicit milestone is the January 30, 2026 telephone discussion and the attributed pledge to maintain coordination. No later joint statements or follow-up meetings have been published in the accessible record up to the present date.
Reliability note: The primary source is an official State Department readout, which is a highly reliable, primary source for this claim. Secondary coverage appears limited; no corroborating public statements from
UAE officials or other U.S. government channels have been located to document concrete follow-up by mid-February 2026. The assessment remains cautious due to lack of verifiable actions since the initial readout.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 11:59 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Public
U.S. government statements around January 2026 show ongoing bilateral engagement, including the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue held in
Abu Dhabi on January 15, 2026, co-chaired by
UAE and U.S. officials, and a State Department press note released January 27, 2026 outlining the dialogue’s outcomes. These documents confirm regular high-level contact and coordinated discussions, but they do not publish a distinct, verifiable record of ongoing security-specific coordination actions beyond broad cooperation.
There is no public, independently verifiable milestone that demonstrates concrete security-focused coordination actions (such as scheduled follow-up security meetings, a joint security statement, or a defined security initiative) as of February 11, 2026.
Key dates and milestones visible publicly include the January 15, 2026 Abu Dhabi Economic Policy Dialogue and the January 27, 2026 State Department media note summarizing that dialogue’s outcomes. These sources confirm continued contact and aligned objectives at a high level but not a discrete, verifiable security-coordination action with a set schedule.
Reliability of sources is high, as the materials are official U.S. government communications (State Department and embassy materials). Cross-checks with independent outlets provide context but do not substitute for explicit, verifiable security-focused actions. Based on current public records, progress toward the completion condition remains unverified and is best characterized as in_progress.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 09:45 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout on January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan discussed ongoing efforts and “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact,” indicating a mutual commitment to sustained engagement.
Progress evidence: The readout references topics under discussion that imply ongoing coordination, including Phase Two of the
Gaza peace plan, developments in
Yemen, the
Sudan humanitarian ceasefire, and efforts to counter
Iranian-backed threats. This suggests continued diplomatic contact and alignment on regional security challenges, with public records showing sustained engagement between the two governments.
Current status: The claim is not contradicted by public records, and both sides express intent to maintain coordination and contact. However, there is no publicly documented schedule of verifiable follow-up actions (e.g., upcoming joint meetings or coordinated initiatives) as of now, so the completion condition of demonstrable ongoing actions remains unverified beyond the readout.
Dates and milestones: The January 30, 2026 readout is the primary milestone signaling intent to persist coordination. Related bilateral engagements (e.g., the January 27, 2026 economic dialogue) illustrate a pattern of diplomacy, but explicit follow-up actions have not been publicly announced.
Reliability note: The core sourcing is a U.S. State Department readout, an official account of the call and its conclusions. This is a high-reliability source for statements of policy intent, and cross-cutting coverage from reputable outlets aligns with this framing. Monitor for any scheduled follow-up statements or meetings as concrete verification of ongoing coordination.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 05:40 AMin_progress
What the claim states: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, following a January 30, 2026 U.S.–U.A.E. discussion. The publicly stated commitment is for ongoing coordination and close contact rather than a fixed milestone.
Progress evidence: The U.S. State Department readout confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The related UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs press release echoes a bilateral discussion of strategic relations and regional developments on January 30, 2026. These sources establish a formal intent to sustain engagement, but do not yet document concrete follow-up actions.
Current status and completion assessment: As of February 10, 2026, there are no publicly announced follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives listed in the official releases. The available communications indicate ongoing intent to coordinate, but a verifiable, ongoing cadence of actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements) has not been publicly demonstrated yet.
Dates, milestones, and reliability: The primary evidence comes from the official State Department readout (Jan 30, 2026) and the UAE MOFA note (Jan 30, 2026). Both are authoritative; however, neither shows a completed milestone beyond the stated commitment to stay in touch. Given the lack of observable follow-up actions by Feb 10, 2026, the status remains in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Source reliability note: The claim rests on official government communications (State Department readout and UAE MOFA press release), which are appropriate for this assessment. No partisan or biased framing is evident; both sources reflect formal diplomacy communications and provide limited detail beyond the commitment to continued coordination.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 03:24 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, as stated in the January 30, 2026 State Department readout.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout confirms an agreement to maintain ongoing coordination and contact between the two governments. The document indicates this intent but does not provide detailed, verifiable actions (e.g., scheduled meetings or joint initiatives) as of late January 2026.
Completion status: There is no public record of specific, verifiable coordination actions having occurred since the readout (such as documented follow-up meetings or joint statements) beyond the general commitment to stay in touch. The completion condition—visible, ongoing coordination actions—has not been independently corroborated.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 02:36 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. and
UAE held their Eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue in January 2026, and the accompanying joint statement notes ongoing bilateral coordination across security-adjacent areas, including discussions on illicit finance, sanctions coordination, and broader economic-security cooperation. The State Department press release (Jan 27, 2026) confirms continued high-level engagement and “cooperation… in advancing regional security and stability” within a broader framework of bilateral collaboration. Separate U.S. government releases emphasize continued engagement through regular forums (e.g., Joint Military Dialogue) that review shared security interests and coordinate actions in the region.
Progress toward the completion condition: There is no single completion event but a pattern of ongoing, verifiable coordination actions (scheduled dialogues, joint statements, and coordinated initiatives) since at least January 2026. The presence of multiple bilateral tracks (economic dialogue, security cooperation, and defense forums) and public confirmations of continued contact suggest that the coordination is ongoing rather than concluded.
Reliability and context of sources: The primary corroboration comes from official U.S. government sources (State Department statements and related press notes) published in January 2026, which articulate a policy trajectory of continued coordination. Additional corroboration from subsequent defense and regional-security briefings (e.g., Joint Military Dialogue and CENTCOM updates) supports the interpretation of sustained contact and aligned security objectives. These sources are official and policy-focused, though they reflect the governments’ framing of ongoing coordination rather than independent investigative reporting.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 12:12 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE pledged to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: Public State Department readouts confirm ongoing high-level engagement, including Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister and the January 30, 2026 readout noting continued coordination and close contact. The January 27, 2026 State Department joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue details sustained bilateral cooperation across security-relevant areas, including sanctions coordination and illicit finance frameworks.
Ongoing or completed actions: The Economic Policy Dialogue, held in mid-January 2026, and related engagements demonstrate scheduled and substantive coordination activities. There is explicit language about continuing coordination and contact, but no single, final milestone declaring complete coordination; instead, multiple ongoing initiatives and planned follow-ups (e.g., dialogues, joint initiatives) are described, indicating progress rather than finalization.
Dates and milestones: Key events include the January 15–27, 2026 dialogue cycle, with subsequent readouts on January 27 and January 30, 2026. The joint policy statement notes anticipated implementation steps (e.g., inauguration of the UAE–U.S. Treasury Engagement Framework) in 2026, reflecting concrete but evolving progress rather than a closed conclusion.
Source reliability and caveats: The primary sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department readouts and press statements), which are authoritative for diplomatic coordination claims. Given the ongoing nature of bilateral security and regional stability work, the absence of a final completion date and the presence of repeated follow-up engagements support an inference of continued, in-progress coordination rather than final completion.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 10:13 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms the commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact after a January 30, 2026 call between Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. This establishes an official intent, but no public, verifiable milestone yet proves ongoing actions beyond the stated commitment.
Progress evidence: The primary public evidence is the January 30, 2026 State Department readout noting continued coordination and close contact, with discussions on
Gaza,
Sudan,
Yemen, and
Iran-backed threats. There are no publicly documented follow-up meetings, joint statements, or specific coordinated initiatives published in major, reliable outlets since that date.
Completion status: There is no announced completion or concrete, verifiable action set demonstrating sustained coordination beyond the initial commitment. While the readout states ongoing coordination, verifiable milestones (e.g., scheduled follow-ups, joint statements, or joint initiatives) have not been publicly published as of the current date.
Dates and milestones: The key date is January 30, 2026 (Secretary Rubio–UAE Foreign Minister call). No subsequent, independently verifiable milestones have been publicly reported to confirm progression toward “continued coordination” beyond that initial statement.
Source reliability note: The principal source is an official State Department readout, which is primary and reliable for stated diplomatic commitments. No corroborating public actions from the UAE side have been surfaced in high-quality outlets or official UAE communications to date. The absence of public milestones does not imply the claim is false, but it does suggest the status remains at the commitment stage pending verifiable actions.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 08:30 PMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Publicly available statements on the bilateral relationship since late January 2026 indicate ongoing high-level engagement and coordination on regional security issues.
Evidence of progress: A U.S. State Department readout from January 30, 2026 notes that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Separately, a January 27, 2026 joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue highlights continued bilateral collaboration on regional security-relevant issues such as sanctions coordination and illicit finance frameworks, reflecting ongoing coordination activities between the two nations.
Context on ongoing engagements: The broader U.S.-UAE partnership has a history of regular high-level dialogues (e.g., Joint Military Dialogue, policy dialogues) and coordinated initiatives (e.g., counter ransomware, sanctions regimes). Recent statements reiterate a persistent pattern of consultation across security and strategic matters, suggesting continuity beyond a single meeting.
Reliability and interpretation: The principal sources are official U.S. government statements (State Department readouts and embassy/agency pages), which are authoritative for diplomatic engagements. While the articles do not quantify milestones beyond “continue coordination” and “remain in close contact,” they are consistent with a pattern of ongoing coordination observed in prior administrations and corroborated by related joint statements and forums.
Notes on completion prospects: Based on the available official readouts, the claim appears to be in progress rather than completed. There is no formal end date or fixed milestone announced, but the presence of repeatable coordination actions (meetings, joint statements, and coordinated initiatives) would advance toward completion if continued going forward.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 05:25 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence shows the pair have maintained ongoing communications, beginning with a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, which stated they would “continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.”
Progress indicators: In early February 2026, the State Department issued a 2026 Critical Minerals Ministerial fact sheet noting that
the United States signed eleven new bilateral critical minerals frameworks or MOUs with various countries, including
the United Arab Emirates, signaling formal, concrete coordination beyond high-level dialogue. The UAE is explicitly named among the signatories, reflecting formalized collaboration within a broader shared effort on security of supply chains and regional stability.
Completion status: There is no evidence yet of a final completion milestone or a single, discrete closing action. The available items point to ongoing, structured coordination (readouts, ministerial engagement, MOUs) rather than a completed end state. The claim remains in_progress as of 2026-02-10, with multiple verifiable actions demonstrating continued contact and coordinated activity.
Dates and milestones: January 30, 2026 — State Department readout confirming intent to stay in close contact and continue coordination. February 4, 2026 — State Department ministerial materials noting UAE among countries signing new critical minerals MOUs, indicating ongoing collaboration.
Source reliability note: The primary sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department readouts and ministerial fact sheets), which are authoritative for statements about bilateral coordination and policy milestones. These reflect demonstrated incentives to maintain allied security cooperation and align on regional and supply-chain issues.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 03:26 PMin_progress
Brief restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms this commitment but provides no published milestones or completion date. It notes ongoing discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats, with an explicit pledge to maintain close contact and coordination.
Evidence of progress: The primary public record is the January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The readout highlights ongoing engagement on multiple regional issues and an agreement to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability. No additional, publicly verifiable milestones (e.g., follow-up meetings or joint statements) are documented in readily accessible sources.
Current status of completion: There is no public documentation of a completed, formalized milestone (e.g., a joint statement, scheduled follow-up meeting, or coordinated initiative) as of February 10, 2026. The language of the readout indicates intent to stay in contact and coordinate, but it does not specify a timeline or measurable actions completed.
Dates and milestones: The only dated item available is the January 30, 2026 readout. Without subsequent public records of follow-on actions, no concrete milestones can be verified beyond the stated commitment to ongoing coordination. The absence of published follow-up events or statements suggests the effort remains in the early or ongoing phase rather than completed.
Source reliability and caveats: The key source is an official State Department readout, which is a high-quality, primary document for this claim. It provides verifiable, direct evidence of the pledge to coordinate but does not reveal any quantified progress or completion. Given the absence of additional public follow-ups, the assessment relies on the available official record and notes the potential that further coordination could occur outside public channels.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 01:44 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress exists in official statements. On January 30, 2026, the U.S. State Department readout of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan stated that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This provides direct acknowledgment of ongoing coordination and contact (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Subsequent developments show continued high-level engagement, including a February 4, 2026 framework signing on secure supply in minerals and rare earths, signaling deepened bilateral cooperation on strategic issues related to security (UAE Embassy announcement, 2026-02-04).
State and embassy communications in early 2026 indicate sustained bilateral engagement and multiple coordinated initiatives aligning with the stated goal of continued coordination, rather than a single completed milestone (State Dept and related releases, 2026).
Reliability note: The January 2026 State Department readout is the primary confirmation of the explicit coordination language; corroborating communications and frameworks in early 2026 support ongoing engagement, though they are not a single, consolidated completion action.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 12:15 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States and
United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The public record shows this commitment was stated by
U.S. officials in a January 30, 2026 readout from the State Department. This aligns with the claim that the two governments would stay in ongoing contact and coordinate on regional security issues.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout confirms the parties “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This indicates a formal, ongoing commitment at the executive level, rather than a one-off discussion. The readout also notes the topics of ongoing engagement (e.g.,
Gaza-related issues,
Yemen, and
Sudan humanitarian considerations) as context for continued coordination.
Status of completion: There is no publicly announced, verifiable milestone indicating the coordination has produced specific follow-up actions (e.g., a scheduled meeting, joint statement, or concrete initiative) as of 2026-02-10. The available sources confirm intent to stay in touch but do not document a completed or ongoing set of coordinated actions beyond the stated commitment.
Reliability and context: The principal source is the U.S. Department of State, which provides an official, direct account of the conversation and stated commitments. While other outlets have reported on related bilateral dynamics in the region, they do not provide verifiable evidence of a concrete follow-up action tied to this exact pledge to coordinate. Given the policy and geopolitics landscape, the stated incentives for both sides center on maintaining stability and managing competition in the region, with no contradictory signals from the State Department readout.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 09:44 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates planned to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, as stated in the State Department readout.
Progress evidence: On January 30, 2026, the State Department readout confirmed Secretary Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and that they agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Separately, a January 27, 2026 State Department joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue shows ongoing high-level engagement and a formal forum for sustained coordination (State Dept, 2026-01-27; 2026-01-30).
Status assessment: The public records indicate formal commitments to ongoing coordination and frequent contact, with concrete mechanisms (economic policy dialogue, readouts of calls) that demonstrate continuing collaboration. There is no public completion date or final milestone announced; the process appears to be ongoing rather than concluded (State Dept, 2026-01-27; 2026-01-30).
Reliability and caveats: The sources are official
U.S. government communications, which provide direct statements of coordination and contact. While they verify continued engagement, they do not disclose private or informal channels, and the exact scope of future actions remains to be seen in subsequent official statements or meetings (State Dept, 2026-01-27; 2026-01-30).
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 05:36 AMin_progress
The claim concerns a commitment by the
U.S. and
UAE to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary of State Rubio spoke with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and that they agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact.
This establishes an official verbal commitment to ongoing engagement, but the readout provides no concrete follow-up actions, scheduled meetings, or joint initiatives as of the current date. There is no public record of specific milestones or verifiable actions yet.
As of February 9, 2026, available reporting does not show measurable progress beyond the stated intention. The guidance for completion requires verifiable ongoing coordination actions, which are not documented in the sources reviewed.
The primary reliability comes from the State Department readout, an authoritative source for diplomatic statements. However, without independent corroboration of follow-up actions, the claim remains a stated commitment rather than proven progress.
A concrete update would be needed—such as a scheduled meeting, joint statement, or announced coordinated initiative—to move this from in_progress to complete. Monitoring subsequent State Department or UAE communications would provide that verification.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 04:54 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. They formalized this commitment in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Evidence of progress: The readout confirms ongoing coordination discussions between Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, indicating continued engagement at high levels (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30). A contemporaneous joint statement following the Eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue shows sustained bilateral coordination across security-adjacent issues and public framing of ongoing contact (State Dept joint statement, 2026-01-27).
Current status: Public records describe ongoing dialogue and multiple mechanisms for collaboration, but no final milestone or closure date is published. The sources depict a pattern of regular contact rather than a completed action, consistent with an in_progress assessment (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30; 2026-01-27).
Reliability note: Official
U.S. government communications are the basis for this assessment; independent corroboration of specific follow-up actions would strengthen the verification of ongoing coordination (State Dept readouts and statements, 2026-01-27 and 2026-01-30).
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 11:34 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence from the State Department readout confirms this ongoing coordination commitment, stated on January 30, 2026. No specific completion date or verifiable milestones are provided; the engagement is framed as an ongoing, under-development coordination effort.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 09:40 PMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and to stay in close contact, but it does not document specific, verifiable follow-up actions as of early February 2026. The readout also notes discussions on ongoing regional issues, including
Gaza,
Yemen, and humanitarian ceasefire needs, which indicates some level of coordination ongoing between the two sides. Public reporting thus far shows a continued high-level commitment to cooperation, but concrete, verifiable coordination milestones (such as scheduled meetings or joint statements) have not been publicly published by early February 2026.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 08:03 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence for progress: A Jan 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and to remain in close contact, tying it to ongoing regional security discussions (Phase Two
Gaza peace plan,
Yemen,
Sudan, and
Iran-backed threats). Additional context from the period shows related U.S.-UAE engagement, including a January 2026 joint statement framework and ongoing bilateral diplomacy described by U.S. and
UAE officials. A concrete milestone cited publicly is the commitment to continue coordination, rather than a discrete completed action.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 05:22 PMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The completion condition is verifiable ongoing coordination actions such as follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives.
Evidence of progress to date shows the commitment was publicly acknowledged in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The readout states they would continue coordination and stay in close contact.
As of 2026-02-09, public records do not disclose specific scheduled follow-up actions or milestones beyond the stated intent. No publicly verifiable follow-up meetings or coordinated initiatives have been documented in readily accessible official releases.
The primary documented milestone is the Jan 30, 2026 phone discussion. Regional outlets corroborate ongoing high-level engagement, but do not provide concrete, verifiable actions to confirm completion.
Source reliability is high for the State Department readout as a primary source. Corroboration from reputable regional outlets supports ongoing diplomatic engagement but remains limited on concrete action dates.
Follow-up note: to assess progress toward verifiable actions, monitor State Department and UAE official communications over the next several months, with a targeted check by 2026-06-30.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 03:18 PMin_progress
Claim restated: The State Department readout says the
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: Public records show the January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirming ongoing coordination, and a separate January 2026 CRS briefing detailing the Defense Cooperation Framework and ongoing bilateral defense engagement, indicating continuity of formal channels rather than a discrete completion of actions.
Completion status: No public record yet of verifiable post-January 2026 milestones (e.g., scheduled follow-up meetings or joint statements) being completed; the claim remains in_progress pending identifiable concrete actions.
Dates and milestones: Key dates are January 30, 2026 (State Dept readout) and January 20, 2026 (CRS UAE policy briefing). No additional milestones publicly documented as of now.
Source reliability note: The statement relies on official State Department readouts and CRS analyses, which are credible, nonpartisan sources for tracking bilateral coordination and policy milestones.
Follow-up: Reassess after a defined window (e.g., 2–3 months) for any new joint statements, meetings, or initiatives between the U.S. and
UAE.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 01:44 PMin_progress
The claim: the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
The State Department readout confirms this exact phrasing, indicating an agreed path to ongoing coordination and close contact as part of their discussions on security and regional issues (State Dept readout, Jan 30, 2026).
Evidence of progress is limited to continued high-level engagement and reiterations of coordination in official statements around late January 2026, with emphasis on sustaining bilateral channels rather than announcing a discrete milestone.
There is no publicly posted completion event or finalized milestone that would mark the coordination as completed, so the completion condition—concrete, verifiable ongoing coordination actions—has not yet been demonstrated in the public record.
Key dates include the January 30, 2026 readout and related January 2026 diplomacy coverage; these signal intent to maintain coordination, but public documentation of scheduled follow-up meetings or joint initiatives remains absent.
Source reliability is strong, since the claim originates from U.S. official statements. While independent corroboration is sparse, the State Department readout provides the authoritative basis for the stated commitment to ongoing coordination.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 11:56 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: A State Department readout on January 30, 2026 confirms Secretary of State Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister and that they agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact. A separate State Department release on January 27, 2026 highlights ongoing bilateral engagement, including mechanisms like the UAE–U.S. Economic Policy Dialogue and anticipated Framework engagements, signaling structured and continuing dialogue between the two governments. The combination of these official readouts indicates formal intent to sustain coordination across security and stability issues, though concrete follow-up actions are not detailed in the public briefings.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 09:26 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms this understanding from a January 30, 2026 call between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan (readout, Jan 30, 2026).
Evidence of progress: The primary public trace is the January 30 readout, which notes continued engagement on regional security issues such as
Yemen,
Sudan, and the
Gaza-related peace process, and states they would “continue coordination” and “remain in close contact.” There is no public itemized schedule of follow-up meetings or joint actions published in the immediate aftermath to date (Feb 8, 2026).
Current status and milestones: As of now, there is no verifiable public record of scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives between the U.S. and
UAE that demonstrate concrete ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment in the readout. The absence of documented actions does not necessarily indicate failure, but it does place the completion condition in the in_progress category.
Reliability and context: Primary sourcing comes from the U.S. Department of State, which is an official government outlet. Reporting on subsequent public disclosures appears limited; multiple outlets replicated the gist of the readout, but independently verifiable milestones (dates, titles, or joint actions) remain scarce. Given the incentives of state actors to frame diplomacy positively, the readout should be weighed against any later corroborating actions.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 04:53 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 notes that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Available evidence confirms the assertion at the time of the call and publicizing the commitment to ongoing dialogue. Evidence of progress: as of February 8, 2026, the primary public record shows the agreement to stay in close contact, but contains no public, verifiable transaction (such as scheduled follow-up meetings or joint initiatives) that demonstrates ongoing coordination beyond the stated intent. No concrete completion milestone is publicly documented in the sources reviewed beyond the stated intention to remain in contact.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 02:47 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Public
U.S. government statements confirm such an agreement was made in late January 2026. A Secretary of State readout notes the commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact on regional security matters.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 01:06 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The State Department readout stated that Secretary Rubio and the UAE Foreign Minister agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress to date: The January 30, 2026 State Department release confirms the commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact, noting discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen, and
Sudan as context for that coordination.
Assessment of completion status: There is no public evidence of scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives that demonstrate verifiable ongoing coordination beyond the stated agreement to stay in touch as of 2026-02-08.
Dates, milestones, and reliability: The primary milestone is the January 30 readout; while it signals engagement, it does not establish concrete, date-stamped follow-up actions. State Department materials are primary sources; independent corroboration of specific actions remains lacking.
Notes on incentives and neutrality: The claim originates from
U.S. government communications emphasizing regional stability and allied coordination. Given the absence of verifiable follow-up actions, skepticism is appropriate until concrete events are publicly announced.

Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination to support regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms the two sides agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact. Subsequently, credible reporting shows a concrete bilateral framework event in early February 2026: the UAE and
the United States signed a
Framework on Securing Supply in the Mining and Processing of Critical Minerals and Rare Earths on the sidelines of the US Critical Minerals Ministerial in
Washington, DC. This framework signals ongoing, structured cooperation beyond verbal commitments and supports coordinated actions across defense-relevant and strategic supply-chain domains.
Status of completion: There is clear evidence of ongoing, verifiable coordination actions (e.g., scheduled follow-up discussions and a formal bilateral framework), but no discrete end-date milestone is defined as finished. The January readout is a baseline commitment, while the February 2026 framework demonstrates tangible, implemented coordination in a specific sector and signals continued contact and collaboration. The claim remains in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Dates and milestones: January 30, 2026 – State Department readout of Secretary Rubio's call; February 2026 –
UAE-
US framework on securing critical minerals and rare earths signed during the US Critical Minerals Ministerial, with corroborating coverage from Gulf News and Gulf Today. These milestones reflect progress toward more structured, ongoing coordination.
Reliability of sources: The State Department readout is a primary official source. Independent regional outlets provided corroborating reporting on the February framework, supporting the interpretation of ongoing coordination without evident bias. The compilation suggests credible progress while awaiting further follow-up actions to mark formal completion.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 08:55 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The primary public record supporting this is a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, which explicitly states that they agreed to continue coordination and to remain in close contact. This establishes a commitment to ongoing engagement but does not itself document specific actions taken since then.
Progress evidence is limited to the readout, which confirms intent but not verifiable follow-up actions. There are no publicly announced scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives documented in widely accessible official sources as of 2026-02-08. The reliability rests on an official
U.S. government source; absence of subsequent milestones in public channels should be noted as a gap in verifiable progress reporting.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 07:27 PMin_progress
The claim is that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Public state department readouts confirm ongoing coordination and close contact between the two governments (State Dept readout, Jan 30, 2026). A closely related joint statement confirms continued bilateral engagement through the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue (State Dept, Jan 27, 2026). Taken together, these indicate sustained coordination, not a completed milestone.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 04:55 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. A State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact,” indicating an intent to maintain ongoing engagement rather than a completed action.
No specific, verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings or joint initiatives) are documented in that release beyond the stated commitment to continued coordination, as of the current date. Progress indicators thus remain at the level of stated intent rather than concrete, ongoing actions.
Public records show related discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats, but they do not list dates for next steps or implemented coordination measures. Without documented follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives, the claim cannot be deemed completed.
Overall, the reliability of the official source is high (a
U.S. government release), but the evidence available publicly up to 2026-02-08 does not demonstrate verifiable ongoing coordination actions beyond the commitment to stay in contact.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 03:05 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This framing implies an ongoing, multi-level commitment rather than a one-off statement. The available public record reflects formal commitments to sustained coordination, but not a completed set of tangible, verifiable actions on a fixed timetable.
Evidence of progress appears in the U.S. State Department’s documentation of bilateral discussions in January 2026. The Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue took place in mid-January 2026 in
Abu Dhabi, with high-level officials co-chairing and reaffirming deepening cooperation on economic, regulatory, and security-related topics. The joint statement notes ongoing coordination across economic policy channels and related security-enforcement dimensions, including illicit finance and sanctions coordination, and anticipates further institutional engagement (e.g., the UAE-U.S. Treasury Engagement Framework) in 2026. These items demonstrate continued contact and structured engagement between the two governments.
Several concrete milestones linked to the claim are of a procedural or ongoing-relationship nature rather than completed actions. The January 27, 2026 State Department media note formalizes the continuation of bilateral dialogue and coordination but does not catalog a fixed end date or a completed set of follow-up meetings. The anticipated inauguration of the Treasury Engagement Framework in 2026 represents a planned milestone rather than a completed action, indicating ongoing progress rather than finality. No conflicting or contradicting evidence has surfaced in reputable sources to date.
Reliability and sources: the central reference is a Jan 27, 2026 State Department page detailing the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue and its outcomes. State Department releases are primary, official sources for U.S.-UAE coordination, making them the strongest available evidence here. Supplementary framing comes from contemporaneous State Department materials describing bilateral security and economic cooperation, which supports the interpretation of ongoing contact and coordinated work rather than a completed, final milestone.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 01:18 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, per a January 30, 2026 State Department release.
Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 phone call between
U.S. Secretary of State and the UAE Foreign Minister reaffirmed ongoing coordination and close contact, with discussions noted on regional security and the
Sudan humanitarian ceasefire. The same period also saw the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi (January 15, 2026) signaling sustained high-level engagement on shared priorities.
Current status: Public records document explicit commitment to ongoing coordination and sustained contact, but do not yet publicly document a concrete follow-up action (such as a scheduled meeting or joint initiative) as of early February 2026.
Milestones and dates: January 30, 2026 (phone call reaffirming coordination); January 27, 2026 (Economic Policy Dialogue) establish channels for continued dialogue. No further milestones are publicly reported to date.
Reliability note: The sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department releases), which are primary and authoritative for diplomatic statements and are suitable for assessing progress on this claim.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 11:55 AMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. A State Department readout confirms this exact pledge after Secretary Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on January 30, 2026, noting they would “continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.”
The readout also documents substantive discussion on ongoing efforts in the
Gaza peace process,
Yemen, and the humanitarian ceasefire, alongside continued engagement on
Sudan. These topics illustrate the areas where verifiable coordination actions could occur, such as future meetings or joint initiatives, but the readout provides no public record of a scheduled follow-up meeting at that moment.
As of February 8, 2026, there is no independently verified public announcement of a concrete follow-up meeting, joint statement, or formal initiative completed since the January 30 readout. The completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions and documented ongoing contact—remains contingent on subsequent public actions or statements.
Reliability-wise, the primary source is the U.S. State Department’s own readout of Secretary Rubio’s call, which is a direct and official account of the discussion. Independent corroboration appears limited so far, and no conflicting sources have emerged to contradict the stated commitment.
Overall, the claim is plausible and supported by the January 30 readout, but progress beyond the commitment to stay in contact requires future, verifiable actions (e.g., follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) to move from stated intent to demonstrated coordination. The current status is best characterized as in_progress.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 09:39 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio's call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan stated that they agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, with discussions centered on
Gaza,
Sudan, and humanitarian ceasefire considerations.
Current status: While the readout confirms an intent to maintain ongoing coordination, there is limited public evidence of verifiable follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or concrete initiatives) as of February 7, 2026. No subsequent State Department releases detailing a formal follow-up meeting or coordinated initiative have been publicly published in the interim.
Dates and milestones: The key milestone is the January 30, 2026 readout confirming continued coordination. The absence of publicly documented follow-up actions within the subsequent days to early February 2026 means the completion condition (verifiable ongoing coordination actions) has not yet been demonstrated publicly.
Source reliability note: The claim rests on an official U.S. Government source (State Department readout), which is a reliable primary reference for diplomatic communications. While such releases are authoritative for statements of intent, they do not by themselves confirm execution of concrete actions beyond the stated commitment. Cross-checks with follow-on State Department releases would strengthen verification.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 05:05 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: A State Department readout on January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary of State Rubio and the UAE Foreign Minister “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact,” signaling ongoing diplomatic engagement between the two countries. Additional State Department releases around the same period describe related high-level discussions and cooperative frameworks, including engagement on
Sudan and broader security issues.
Progress status: The claim has seen explicit acknowledgment of continued coordination and contact at the senior diplomatic level. There is no public, verifiable record of a completed milestone (e.g., a scheduled follow-up meeting or joint initiative) by the current date, but the stated intent is to maintain ongoing coordination, which remains in progress.
Evidence and milestones: Key dates include the January 30, 2026 call and related January 2026 diplomacy notes from the State Department describing bilateral security cooperation and regional stability efforts. While these establish intent and ongoing dialogue, concrete, verifiable coordination actions (such as a scheduled follow-up meeting or joint initiative) have not been publicly documented as completed in the cited sources.
Source reliability and notes: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State, a official government channel, which provides direct confirmation of the diplomatic stance and intentions. Cross-referencing around the same period with related State Department releases strengthens the picture of sustained engagement, though independent corroboration of specific actions remains limited to official statements.
Overall assessment: Based on the available official statements, the U.S. and
UAE are maintaining ongoing coordination and contact, satisfying the reasonable interpretation of the stated request without evidence of a final, completed milestone. The situation remains in_progress pending additional verifiable actions.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 02:48 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department publicly documented this commitment in a January 30, 2026 readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, stating they agreed to continue coordination and remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The primary verifiable signal is the January 30, 2026 readout, which explicitly affirms ongoing coordination and close contact. Multiple corroborating summaries from other outlets echoed the same phrasing, reinforcing that no end date or completion condition was announced at that time.
Completion status: There is no published completion condition or milestone indicating the coordination effort has been completed. The readout frames the arrangement as an ongoing, managed relationship with continued engagement, rather than a defined, finite task.
Dates and milestones: The key date is January 30, 2026, the date of the readout. No subsequent, verifiable milestones (e.g., scheduled follow-up meetings or joint statements) have been publicly documented as of February 7, 2026 in the sources consulted.

The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This was stated in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s discussion with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, where they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.”
The claim rests on a verifiable statement from the U.S. Department of State that the two governments would continue coordinating efforts and maintain close contact.
The readout names topics such as
Gaza-related developments,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering
Iranian-supported threats, framed as ongoing engagement rather than a one-off agreement.
As of 2026-02-07, there is no publicly surfaced record of scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or concrete coordinated initiatives explicitly demonstrating ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment to stay in contact.
Contextual references show related bilateral discussions and dialogues (e.g., Economic Policy Dialogue results and joint leaders’ statements around January 2026), but these are separate tracks rather than explicit follow-up on the stated coordination commitment.
The primary source is the U.S. State Department readout, a formal government communication; other reputable outlets have reported on related U.S.-UAE cooperation, but have not yet provided independent verification of follow-up actions tied to this specific pledge.
Reliability note: official State Department communications are authoritative for policy positions and commitments, though they may reflect the administration’s framing and priorities. The absence of public follow-up actions does not necessarily indicate a lapse, but it does mean the completion criterion remains unverified.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 11:13 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The State Department readout on January 30, 2026 states that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The period includes the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue (January 15, 2026) and a January 27, 2026 joint statement, indicating sustained high-level engagement across security-related and economic tracks, consistent with ongoing coordination channels.
Current status vs. completion condition: No publicly disclosed, verifiable follow-up meeting or joint security initiative has been identified as of early February 2026. The readout confirms intent to stay in close contact, but concrete ongoing coordination actions have not yet been publicly demonstrated.
Reliability and incentives: The sources are official
U.S. government communications, which are typically reliable for stated intents and timelines. Given shared regional priorities, continued engagement is plausible, but independent verification of specific security actions remains limited at this time.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 09:00 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms Secretary Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes an explicit bilateral commitment to ongoing coordination, at least at the executive-branch level, as of that date.
Evidence of concrete milestones: There is no publicly documented follow-up action (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or specific initiatives) cited between late January and February 7, 2026 that demonstrates verifiable ongoing coordination beyond the readout itself. Additional public statements in the period emphasize the broader U.S.–UAE strategic relationship but do not provide new, codified coordination milestones related to this specific pledge.
Context and milestones, when they occur: The January 2026 period also included other U.S.–UAE material exchanges (e.g., joint statements on economic dialogue and broader defense talks) that signal close engagement, but none cited so far as a direct, verifiable continuation of the exact coordination pledge tied to regional security and stability with explicit follow-up actions.
Source reliability note: The primary source is an official State Department readout, which is the authoritative record of the conversation and commitments. Secondary coverage from reputable outlets corroborates the broad trajectory of a strengthened U.S.–UAE partnership, though it does not add concrete milestones for this specific coordination pledge.
Overall assessment: The claim is currently best characterized as in_progress. The parties publicly committed to ongoing coordination, but verifiable, ongoing coordination actions or milestones have not yet been publicly documented as of 2026-02-07.

Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact. Related ongoing engagement: The U.S.-UAE relationship includes regular bilateral engagement, such as the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue in January 2026, with subsequent statements and engagements announced around that period. Status and milestones: As of February 7, 2026, there is no public record of specific follow-up coordination actions (e.g., meetings, joint statements) tied directly to the quoted phrasing beyond the stated intention to stay in contact; engagement appears ongoing but not yet documented as concrete actions. Reliability and limits: The primary source is the U.S. State Department’s official readout, which confirms intent to coordinate and maintain contact but does not specify a published timetable or concrete actions, so the status is best described as in_progress. Follow-up note: Future State Department releases or UAE government communications documenting scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives would help verify progress toward verifiable coordination actions.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 04:52 PMin_progress
The claim is that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This reflects language from a State Department readout of a January 30, 2026 call between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The stated aim emphasizes ongoing cooperation rather than a specific milestone completion.
The readout notes that they discussed multiple regional issues, including Phase Two of President Trump’s
Gaza peace plan, developments in
Yemen, the threat from
Iranian-backed Houthis, and
Sudan with a humanitarian ceasefire as a priority. Crucially, it includes the line that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This confirms an intent to maintain regular engagement rather than announcing concrete follow-up actions.
As of 2026-02-07, there are no publicly disclosed follow-up milestones (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) tied to this specific agreement in major, verifiable outlets beyond the initial readout. No subsequent State Department press release or UAE statement has been published about a measurable coordination action arising from this call in the immediate weeks after.
The primary evidence comes from the State Department’s official readout, which is a primary source for U.S. government communications. While it reliably records the parties’ stated intent, it does not itself verify subsequent actions unless corroborated by later, independently verifiable statements or documents. Given the lack of public follow-up milestones to date, the status appears to be in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Overall, the available public record confirms an intention for continued coordination, but it does not document verifiable, ongoing coordination actions as of the current date. If new meetings, joint statements, or initiatives are announced, they would be the key indicators of progression toward the stated completion of sustained coordination.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 03:02 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The Jan 30, 2026 State Department readout directly confirms the two governments’ commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact on regional security issues. This establishes an explicit bilateral intention, but provides limited detail on concrete actions to date.
Progress evidence: The readout from Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan notes continued coordination and close contact, indicating a formalized, ongoing communication channel. There is no public, verifiable record of scheduled follow-up meetings or joint initiatives linked specifically to this pledge within the days immediately following the statement.
Additional context: Other publicly available U.S.-UAE materials in early 2026 show ongoing bilateral engagement on broader security and regional issues (e.g., Economic Policy Dialogue statements and defense partnership engagements from 2025–2026), which align with a patterns of collaboration but do not independently verify the exact coordination mechanism cited in the readout.
Milestones and dates: The primary milestone is the January 30, 2026 readout asserting continued coordination and contact. A related but separate milestone is the January 15, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi and related statements; these illustrate active high-level engagement but are not a direct follow-up on the specific security-coordination pledge.
Source reliability note: The principal source is the U.S. Department of State readout, a primary official record. Additional sources include official
UAE and U.S. statements on defense partnership and diplomacy. While these sources are official, they provide limited detail on verifiable actions beyond stated commitments; ongoing contact remains at the level of stated intent rather than documented, scheduled actions.

U.S. and UAE statements since January 2026 show ongoing bilateral engagement, including a high-level Economic Policy Dialogue and related joint statements that emphasize continued cooperation across security- and policy-related domains. These activities indicate structured, ongoing coordination rather than a completed, final outcome.

The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Publicly available U.S. State Department briefings confirm an ongoing bilateral discussion framework rather than a final, completed pact. In particular, the January 30, 2026 readout notes that Secretary Rubio and the UAE Foreign Minister agreed to continue coordination and to stay in close contact (State Department readout). A preceding January 27 joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue likewise evidences sustained bilateral engagement across security-, defense-, and economic-policy dimensions (State Department press release).

Update · Feb 07, 2026, 05:45 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The article states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout dated January 30, 2026 confirms a phone discussion between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The readout notes that they discussed regional security,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats, and that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” No public follow-up actions or milestones are listed in that release itself (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or published initiatives) as of February 6, 2026.
Current status: Based on public records up to 2026-02-06, there are no verifiable, publicized follow-up coordination actions or documented ongoing contact beyond the initial agreement to stay in touch. While private or back-channel coordination could be ongoing, it has not been publicly verifiable through official statements or schedules.
Reliability of sources: The primary source is an official State Department press readout (readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with the UAE foreign minister), which is a credible, authoritative account of the discussed topics and stated commitment. Absence of additional public milestones in the interim means the claim remains plausible but not conclusively demonstrated in publicly verifiable, ongoing actions.
Conclusion: The claim is currently best characterized as in_progress. The parties committed to continued coordination, but public, verifiable coordination actions or ongoing contact have not been publicly documented since the January 30, 2026 readout.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 03:46 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Publicly available U.S. State Department readouts confirm that, on January 30, 2026, Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This establishes an official commitment to ongoing dialogue between the two governments.
Evidence of progress so far is limited to the mutual agreement in the readout and any subsequent public statements; there are no clearly documented follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or concrete bilateral initiatives) publicly disclosed as of February 6, 2026. The State Department readout emphasizes intent and continuity but does not specify dates or outcomes of verifiable coordination actions.
No completion milestone is publicly reported. The completion condition requires verifiable ongoing coordination actions (such as follow-up meetings or joint initiatives) and documented ongoing contact; as of now, these are not publicly evidenced beyond the initial readout. The absence of concrete milestones in the public record keeps the status at “in progress.”
Reliability note: the primary source is an official State Department readout, which is a high-quality, primary source for
U.S. government statements. Cross-referencing other reputable outlets yields context on bilateral ties but does not provide independent verification of subsequent coordination actions. Given the official nature of the claim, the lack of public milestones suggests ongoing, but not yet publicly verifiable, coordination actions.
Incentive perspective: the pledge to maintain close coordination aligns with both governments’ interests in regional stability and counterterrorism, humanitarian concerns, and diplomatic signaling. Any future milestones (e.g., joint statements or formal coordination frameworks) would reflect a measurable shift in bilateral engagement toward structured, ongoing cooperation.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 01:45 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This was stated in a January 30, 2026 readout following Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
Evidence of progress: Official readouts describe ongoing engagement on
Gaza,
Sudan,
Yemen, and broader regional security, with explicit language that the two sides will “continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” Both the U.S. State Department and the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs publicly corroborate the discussion and shared objectives.
Current status of the promise: There is no public disclosure of a concrete follow-up meeting, joint statement, or specific coordinated initiative beyond the stated intent to maintain coordination and contact. The January 30 communications establish the commitment, but do not document completed or scheduled follow-up actions.
Dates and milestones: The key dated artifact is the January 30, 2026 readouts from the U.S. Department of State and the UAE MOFA. The readouts reference ongoing coordination but do not list a timeline, milestone, or next meeting date.
Source reliability and neutrality: The principal sources are official government channels (State Department readout and UAE MOFA press release), which provide primary, if terse, accounts of the exchange. These sources are appropriate for assessing official statements of intent, though they do not independently verify subsequent actions. The exchange aligns with publicly stated U.S.–UAE security collaboration and regional diplomacy objectives.
Follow-up assessment: Given the stated commitment to ongoing coordination, monitor for follow-up actions such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives in the next several months. Absence of documented actions would keep the status as in_progress rather than complete.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 12:06 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This was reported in a State Department readout after Secretary of State Rubio spoke with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on January 30, 2026.
Evidence of progress includes subsequent high-level engagements and related statements reinforcing security and defense cooperation, including bilateral policy dialogues and ongoing initiatives cited by
U.S. and
UAE sources in early 2026. These indicate continued collaboration within the broader U.S.–UAE security partnership.
However, there are no publicly disclosed, verifiable milestones tied specifically to this exact pledge (such as scheduled follow-up meetings or joint statements with explicit dates) beyond the general commitment to stay in contact. The completion condition—documented, ongoing coordination actions—has not been publicly confirmed as of February 6, 2026.
Reliability notes: the State Department readout is an official source that directly supports the claim. Related statements and defense cooperation materials from U.S. and UAE channels corroborate ongoing engagement, though precise actions and timelines remain limited in public records.
Overall, the claim appears plausible and supported by official communication, but explicit, verifiable milestones have not yet been publicly published.

Summary of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, as stated in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout.
Evidence of progress: The readout confirms the commitment to ongoing coordination and close contact, establishing a verifiable record of intent between Secretary Rubio and the UAE Foreign Minister.
Current status and milestones: No publicly announced, independently verifiable follow-up meetings or joint initiatives tied to this pledge have been documented in accessible sources as of early February 2026; however, subsequent coverage notes continued high-level engagement on regional security matters.
Reliability and caveats: The primary source is an official government readout, which is a reliable record of stated intent. Diplomacy-related progress often depends on subsequent verifiable actions (e.g., follow-up meetings or joint statements) that may appear in later releases or statements.

U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This commitment was stated in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with
UAE officials. Evidence of progress: Subsequent official statements show ongoing bilateral engagement, including a January 27, 2026 joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue and coverage of the January 15, 2026 dialogue in
Abu Dhabi that publicize scheduled high-level engagements. Status of the promise: The readout explicitly commits to continued coordination and close contact, and the following statements reference continuing cooperation on
Yemen,
Sudan,
Gaza-related issues, and regional security, indicating ongoing coordination rather than a concluded action. Dates and milestones: Key timestamps include January 15, 2026 (Economic Policy Dialogue), January 27, 2026 (joint statement), and January 30, 2026 (readout of the call). Sources and reliability: Primary sources are U.S. State Department releases and White House archival materials, which align with official policy communications and reflect incumbent incentives to publicly demonstrate sustained partnership and regional stability efforts.

Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The official readout frames this as an ongoing intent to stay in regular contact and to coordinate on regional security efforts. This reflects a continuing bilateral emphasis on strategic alignment in
the Middle East.
Progress evidence: The State Department’s January 30, 2026 readout explicitly states that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This confirms the commitment at the highest level, with no contradictions reported in subsequent official statements up to early February 2026. Prior related signals include a 2024 UAE–U.S. joint statements and a 2025 designation of the UAE as a Major Defense Partner, underscoring a trajectory of intensified coordination.
Current status: There are no publicly announced verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) as of early February 2026 that demonstrate ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment. The language in the readout indicates intent, but concrete, public milestones have not been documented in accessible official disclosures yet. This keeps the claim within an ongoing, not-yet-completed category.
Reliability and context: The primary source is the U.S. State Department readout, a high-reliability official briefing. Related context comes from subsequent U.S.–UAE cooperation developments (e.g., defense partnership, regional diplomacy efforts) that align with a continuing cooperative trajectory, though not all are direct verifications of the stated coordination cadence. In evaluating incentives, the bilateral relationship reflects mutual strategic interests in
Middle East stability and countering regional threats, with public communications focusing on ongoing dialogue rather than a fixed schedule of actions.
Follow-up note: If public updates disclose scheduled follow-up meetings or joint initiatives, these should be captured to reassess completion. Follow-up date: 2026-12-31.

Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 notes that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan discussed ongoing issues and “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a formal commitment to sustained dialogue, but provides no concrete actions or dates for follow-up.
Current status vs. completion: There is no documented completion of verifiable coordination actions (e.g., scheduled follow-up meetings or joint statements) in the provided record. The completion condition requires ongoing, observable coordination activities; as of the cited readout, those actions have not yet been publicly enumerated.
Dates and milestones: The only dated item is the January 30, 2026 readout. A later, verifiable milestone (e.g., a joint statement, a named follow-up meeting, or a coordinated initiative) has not been identified in publicly available sources up to now. The absence of such milestones suggests the arrangement remains in a preliminary or ongoing coordination phase.
Source reliability and notes: The primary source is an official State Department press readout (January 30, 2026), which is a high-quality, primary document for this claim. Cross-checks with additional U.S.-UAE policy discussions (e.g., subsequent State Department releases or U.S. government statements) did not reveal a concrete follow-up action at the time of this report. Given the incentives of state actors, expect future announcements to hinge on concrete security or humanitarian developments in the region.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 01:34 PMin_progress
Brief restatement of the claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The claim is grounded in a readout from the U.S. Department of State dated January 30, 2026, where Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact. This aligns with the bilateral trend of ongoing high-level engagement between the two countries, including related diplomacy around
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and regional security matters.
Evidence of progress to date: The Jan. 30 readout confirms an intention to maintain ongoing coordination, which constitutes an immediate, verifiable action in the form of official communication and affirmed intent. In addition, a separate Jan. 27 State Department release highlights the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue, signaling structured, scheduled bilateral engagement across multiple issues, including security and sanctions coordination. Together, these provide publicly verifiable indicators of ongoing, multi-track coordination between
Washington and
Abu Dhabi.
Assessment of completion status: There is no public record of a specific follow-up meeting, joint statement, or coordinated initiative tied to the exact phrasing of the claim beyond the general commitment to stay in contact. Therefore, the completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions with documented ongoing contact—has not yet been demonstrably fulfilled in a concrete, traceable form as of 2026-02-06. The situation remains at the level of formal agreement to continue coordination, not a completed, recurrent action plan.
Dates and milestones: January 30, 2026: State readout confirming continued coordination and close contact. January 27, 2026: Joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue signaling ongoing bilateral engagement on security, sanctions coordination, and related topics. No publicly announced follow-up meeting or joint initiative has been published to date.
Reliability and sourcing: The analysis relies on official
U.S. government sources (State Department readouts), which are primary, direct records of the stated commitments. These sources are currently the most authoritative public documentation of the claim and its status. While they confirm the intent to continue cooperation, they do not yet confirm a concrete, repeated coordination action beyond the stated commitment.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 12:14 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence from State Department readouts shows Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE leadership concluding that the two sides would maintain ongoing coordination on regional security and stay in close contact. This indicates progress in maintaining bilateral coordination, though no independent verification of concrete follow-up actions was found in the sources reviewed.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 09:50 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress exists in official statements detailing ongoing bilateral engagement across security, technology, economics, and governance, including post-dialogue communications. A January 27, 2026 State Department media note confirms the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue and outlines sustained collaboration and forthcoming frameworks (e.g., sanctions coordination and illicit finance efforts). UAE government materials corroborate continued partnership and multi-domain cooperation, indicating sustained contact rather than a completed action.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 05:16 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms the agreement to stay in close contact, reflecting ongoing bilateral engagement. A January 27, 2026 joint statement on the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue shows sustained coordination across security-related and economic areas, indicating institutionalized engagement. The January 15, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue demonstrates regular, formal discussions between the two governments.
Completion status: There is a clear commitment to ongoing coordination and contact, but no public record of a finalized, verifiable follow-up action (such as scheduled meetings or joint initiatives) published by early February 2026; the claim remains in_progress.
Reliability: The sources are official U.S. government statements, making them the most authoritative records for this bilateral commitment.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 04:23 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The claim derives from a State Department release dated January 30, 2026, asserting ongoing coordination and close contact between
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates. Public visibility of the full release is currently limited due to technical access issues on the host site, hindering independent verification of specific follow-up actions.
Current status and milestones: As of February 5, 2026, there are no publicly verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) publicly documented to demonstrate concrete ongoing coordination.
Reliability and caveats: The central assertion rests on an official U.S. government statement. Pending accessible corroboration from other reputable outlets or official communications, the status remains uncertain. The absence of documented actions in open sources suggests the claim could be plausible but not yet demonstrably completed.
Follow-up note: A targeted check for upcoming official announcements or joint initiatives from the State Department or UAE mission within the next several months could yield verifiable progress. Proposed follow-up date: 2026-06-01.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 01:56 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms ongoing discussion of regional security initiatives and a commitment to stay in close contact. A January 2025 State Department fact sheet outlines sustained security cooperation with the UAE, providing context for the broader framework of coordination.
Current status: No publicly available documentation shows a concrete coordination milestone (e.g., scheduled follow-up meeting or joint statement) as of February 5, 2026; the materials describe intent and ongoing engagement rather than a completed action.
Dates and milestones: Key dated item is the January 30, 2026 readout; January 2025 fact sheet reinforces ongoing security cooperation but does not specify post-readout milestones.
Source reliability: The primary source is an official State Department readout, complemented by a 2025 PM Bureau fact sheet; both are authoritative for diplomatic coordination, though they do not show a discrete completion event.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 11:37 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms the agreement to ongoing coordination and close contact, without detailing specific milestones.
Evidence of progress: The January 30, 2026 readout documents Secretary Rubio and the UAE Foreign Minister agreeing to continued coordination on regional security and stability, and to stay in close contact. It signals ongoing high-level engagement but does not cite verifiable follow-up actions yet.
Current status: There are no publicly documented follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives as of early February 2026. The completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions—has not been publicly demonstrated.
Dates and milestones: The relevant date for the commitment is January 30, 2026, with references to ongoing discussions on
Sudan,
Yemen, and broader regional issues in the readout. No further milestones are publicly recorded at this time.
Source reliability: The primary source is a U.S. State Department readout, which is an authoritative, official account. While credible, it provides a status update rather than independent corroboration of concrete actions.
Incentives context: The dialogue aligns with continuing security cooperation in a volatile region, likely reflecting strategic incentives for both countries to maintain alignment against shared threats and to manage regional stability; however, without published follow-up actions, the incentive structure remains exploratory rather than decisively progressed.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 10:00 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and they 'agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.' Related context includes January 27, 2026 discussions on bilateral issues such as the
Gaza peace process and illicit finance cooperation (e.g., the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue).
Assessment of current status: While the readout confirms a commitment to ongoing coordination, there are no publicly documented, verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or formal coordination initiatives) specifically cited as proof of ongoing coordination beyond the stated agreement. The available public record through early February 2026 therefore supports an in-progress status rather than a completed milestone.
Reliability note: The primary source is an official State Department readout (State.gov), which is a direct government statement of the parties' discussions and commitments. Secondary signals of heavy bilateral engagement exist (e.g., defense cooperation statements and policy dialogues reported elsewhere), but explicit, verifiable follow-up coordination actions tied to the January 30 pledge have not been publicly published as of February 5, 2026.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 08:12 PMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordinating in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Public records show ongoing bilateral dialogue and formal commitments reflecting sustained coordination, but no final completion date. A January 2026 State Department release confirms an eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue and emphasizes continued cooperation across trade, security, and regional stability, alongside plans for further collaboration (State Dept, Jan 2026). The same period also highlights UAE participation in Pax
Silica and related initiatives, indicating aligned actions to strengthen resilient, secure supply chains and regional connectivity (State Dept, Jan 27, 2026).
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 05:45 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Public government briefings confirm a formal agreement to maintain coordination and contact between the two governments. The current status appears to be ongoing rather than final or complete.
Progress evidence includes multiple high-level engagements in late January 2026. The United States and
UAE held their Eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi (announced January 27, 2026), underscoring ongoing bilateral policy coordination across security-linked and economic dimensions. These fora illustrate structured, verifiable channels for continued coordination beyond a one-off exchange.
Additional corroborating items include a joint Leaders’ Statement on the bilateral relationship and ongoing discussions on regional security issues. The joint statements emphasize a sustained strategic partnership and ongoing collaboration in defense, technology, and regional security matters, signaling that the coordination framework remains active and multidimensional.
The intensity and breadth of follow-on topics—
Gaza peace process phases,
Yemen, humanitarian ceasefires,
Sudan, countering extremist threats, and security-focused economic collaboration—suggest that coordination is not only continuing but expanding into concrete initiatives and dialogues. The public record from State Department releases and allied official communications provides a credible, neutral trail of verifiable coordination actions rather than a single, completed milestone.
Source reliability is high, anchored in official
U.S. government statements (Office of the Spokesperson readsouts and joint statements). While other outlets mention the relationship, the core claim’s verification rests on these primary sources, which consistently describe ongoing contact and coordination efforts rather than a completed end-state.
Given the ongoing nature of the engagements and the absence of a stated completion date, the status should be read as in_progress. The available official communications indicate continued coordination actions and persistent contact between U.S. and UAE officials, rather than a completed, end-state.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 03:34 PMin_progress
Restating the claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates committed to continued coordination in support of regional security and stability, and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The
U.S. and
UAE held their Eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue in January 2026, with joint statements emphasizing coordinated efforts across economic security, supply chains, and regional stability, and explicitly noting ongoing coordination and regular contact (e.g., scheduled dialogues and follow-on discussions). Separately, the UAE joined the Pax Silica Declaration in January 2026, signaling a shared framework for security-minded economic integration and continued joint work on supply chain resilience and trusted technology ecosystems.
Current status and milestones: Public communications around these events confirm ongoing high-level engagement and coordination across security-relevant domains, as well as formal mechanisms demonstrating continued contact (dialogues, joint statements, and multilateral initiatives). There is no evidence of a formal termination or a completed milestone that would constitute finalization of the coordination promise; rather, these recent verifiable engagements indicate that coordination remains active and evolving.
Source reliability note: State Department releases are primary, official sources describing bilateral diplomacy, and were corroborated by the Pax Silica press note from the same period. While coverage from other outlets is limited in this specific thread, the referenced State Department documents provide direct evidence of ongoing coordination and contact between the two governments.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 02:42 PMin_progress
Restating the claim: The
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, as stated in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio's call with UAE leadership. The brief note emphasizes ongoing coordination and close contact between the two governments.
Evidence of progress so far: The readout confirms an intention to maintain coordination, and a subsequent State Department release reiterates a continuing bilateral engagement on security matters and humanitarian concerns (e.g.,
Sudan) via official communications. The public record shows no publicly documented follow-up actions (scheduled meetings, statements, or initiatives) between late January and early February 2026 beyond these high-level commitments.
Current status against the completion condition: There are verifiable statements of intent to coordinate, but no independently verifiable follow-up meetings or joint initiatives publicly reported as of February 5, 2026. The completion condition—evidence of ongoing coordination actions—remains unmet in publicly accessible records, though the relationship continues to be actively engaged in related regional security dialogues.
Key dates and milestones: January 30, 2026 — Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister spoke and agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact. January 15, 2026 — UAE-U.S. Economic Policy Dialogue occurred (contextual ancillary activity cited in related State Department material), indicating ongoing bilateral engagement in multiple domains, though not a direct security coordination milestone. No later, publicly verifiable security-focused meetings or statements have been published by early February 2026.
Reliability and notes on sources: The primary sourcing is official U.S. government communications (State Department readouts), which are authoritative for stated commitments, but they do not by themselves prove implementation. Additional related materials from U.S. or UAE official channels corroborate ongoing bilateral engagement, though independent verification of concrete coordination actions remains limited at this time.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 12:00 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability, and to remain in close contact. This frames ongoing bilateral alignment as a continuing, verifiable effort rather than a one-off statement of intent.
Evidence of progress includes the United States and UAE publicly detailing ongoing, high-level engagement across multiple domains in January 2026. A State Department joint statement notes participation in the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue (Jan 15, 2026) and descriptions of continued cooperation on economic security, sanctions coordination, and regional stability considerations (reported Jan 27–30, 2026) (State Department release). This signals structured, repeating contact and coordination mechanisms between the two governments.
The completion condition would be satisfied by verifiable, ongoing coordination actions such as scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives demonstrating continued coordination in support of regional security, plus documented ongoing contact. The January 2026 communications show ongoing dialogue and multiple channels of coordination, but do not, by themselves, document a specific, completed coordination action with a distinct security milestone. As such, the claim appears to be in_progress rather than completed.
Key dates and milestones include the January 15, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi, a public joint statement in late January 2026, and references to ongoing discussions on illicit finance, sanctions coordination, critical minerals, and regional stability within that framework (State Department notes). These items demonstrate repeated engagement and a pattern of contact, aligning with the stated promise of continued coordination. Whether these channels translate into tangible, outward-facing security initiatives remains to be seen in future announcements.
Source reliability: the primary sourcing is official
U.S. government communications (State Department press releases), which are primary, authoritative records of dialogue and policy coordination. Coverage from the releases themselves provides a solid basis for assessing stated commitments and progress, though they may emphasize positive framing of ongoing talks. No independently verified counter-evidence has emerged to contradict the existence of ongoing contact or to suggest a halt in coordination.
Overall assessment: while there is clear evidence of ongoing—and publicly articulated—coordination and contact between the U.S. and
UAE, a discrete, completed security coordination milestone has not yet been publicly documented. The situation aligns with an in_progress status pending a concrete, verifiable security-focused action or follow-up that demonstrates sustained coordination over time.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 09:39 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms this commitment, noting they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” The readout accompanies mentions of ongoing discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats from
Iran-backed groups, indicating a broad framework for sustained engagement (State Dept readout, Jan 30, 2026). Progress evidence: The same State Department release followed the call between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and
UAE officials, signaling continued diplomatic engagement and coordination at high level (State Dept readout, Jan 30, 2026). Related and corroborating activity: In mid-January 2026, the U.S. and UAE held their eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi, with joint statements that underscore ongoing bilateral coordination on economic and strategic issues (State Dept release on Jan 27, 2026). Additional context: Publicly reported activities around this period include discussions on Gaza, Yemen, and humanitarian concerns, as well as broader security considerations in the region, suggesting that coordination is being translated into concrete policy conversations and potential joint initiatives (State Dept readout, Jan 30, 2026). Source reliability and limits: The primary verifiable evidence comes from official U.S. government sources (State Department readouts and statements). No independent, publicly verifiable follow-up actions (e.g., joint statements or scheduled meetings) beyond these early 2026 disclosures have been widely published by other high-quality outlets as of early February 2026.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 05:32 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Current status: A State Department readout on January 30, 2026 confirms Secretary Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a verbal commitment to ongoing engagement (State Dept readout, Jan 30, 2026).
Evidence of progress: Separate State Department statements around late January 2026 reference an ongoing bilateral agenda, including preparation for Phase Two of a
Gaza peace plan and discussions on
Yemen,
Sudan, and
Iran-backed threats, alongside continuing coordination structures (e.g., the Jan 30 readout and Jan 27, 2026 economic dialogue press materials). These show documented, multi-track diplomatic activity and formal channels for coordination (State Dept releases, Jan 27–30, 2026).
Completion status: The promise is not yet shown as fully completed, since no public, verifiable joint action (such as a scheduled follow-up meeting or joint statement focused solely on regional security coordination) has been published by Feb 4, 2026. The evidence to date demonstrates ongoing contact and planned coordination, not a final, concrete, publicly verifiable set of joint actions.
Reliability and context: The sources are official State Department releases, which align with the U.S. administration’s public communications and policy direction. Given the stated intent to sustain contact and coordinate on multiple regional issues, the status is best characterized as in_progress with credible, ongoing engagement rather than concluded coordination.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 04:00 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of stated coordination: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Deputy PM/Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This follows broader bilateral engagements in late January 2026, including a U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue that highlighted ongoing bilateral cooperation on security-related issues (sanctions coordination and illicit financing frameworks) [State Dept releases, Jan 27–30, 2026].
Progress to date: As of February 4, 2026, there are no publicly announced follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or formal initiatives) explicitly tied to the stated coordination commitment. The State Department readout emphasizes continued contact, but does not list concrete milestones or dates for additional coordination steps.
Completion status assessment: The completion condition requires verifiable, ongoing coordination actions and documented contact. Public records through Feb 4, 2026 show the commitment to remain in close contact, but not a documented sequence of follow-up actions. Therefore, the status is best characterized as in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Source reliability and caveats: The primary sourcing is official U.S. government communications (State Department readouts), which are directly attributable to the involved parties. Supplementary context from State Department releases on the same period corroborates ongoing bilateral discussions but does not introduce externally verifiable milestones beyond the stated commitment to stay in contact.
Follow-up plan: Monitor for subsequent State Department readouts or UAE government statements that announce follow-up meetings, joint initiatives, or formal coordination mechanisms. Proposed follow-up date: 2026-06-01.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 02:25 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The public record shows a Jan 30, 2026 readout confirming ongoing coordination and close contact as part of their discussions.
Progress evidence: A State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan (Jan 30, 2026) states that they agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The readout also notes continued engagement on
Sudan and the humanitarian ceasefire, signaling concrete, ongoing diplomacy on multiple regional issues.
Current status: As of Feb 4, 2026, there are no widely publicized follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings or joint statements) beyond the initial readout. No additional verifiable milestones have been published in major, high-quality sources indicating a formal implementation cadence.
Reliability note: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State’s official readout, a direct account of the conversation. Absent subsequent State Department or UAE communications confirming specific coordination actions, the claim reflects stated intent rather than a documented, ongoing program with verifiable milestones.
Follow-up: If future State Department statements or UAE official communications publish scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives, those would constitute verifiable progress toward completion. A check around late March 2026 is recommended.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 11:54 PMin_progress
The claim is that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms this commitment, stating that the Secretary of State and UAE Foreign Minister “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” The source is an official
U.S. government document, lending it high credibility.
Progress evidence shows the stated intention to stay in touch, and there is accompanying evidence of ongoing bilateral engagement in related areas. A January 27, 2026 State Department release details the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue, illustrating active high-level interaction across security, economic, and strategic domains.
However, there is no publicly verifiable record of concrete follow-up actions that demonstrate ongoing coordination in the security sphere, such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or jointly announced initiatives specifically tied to regional security. The available materials primarily reflect commitments and broader dialogues rather than discrete, documented actions.
Reliability of sources is high, given they are official State Department communications. Public signaling (readouts and dialogue statements) is a standard indicator of continued coordination, even if it does not by itself prove tangible security actions.
Overall, the claim remains in_progress: the parties have committed to ongoing coordination and contact, but verifiable, ongoing security-coordination actions have not yet been publicly documented as of 2026-02-04.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 09:33 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The State Department readout states that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: Public State Department materials confirm ongoing bilateral engagement, including the January 30, 2026 readout noting continued coordination and close contact. Related releases point to ongoing high-level discussions, such as the eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue in January 2026, which touched on sanctions coordination and security frameworks (State Dept readouts, 2026; State Dept release, 2026-01-27).
Assessment of completion status: No verifiable, published milestones demonstrate final completion of the coordination promise. The available records indicate continued coordination and contact, but no scheduled follow-up meeting or joint statement has been publicly documented as completed as of 2026-02-04.
Reliability and context: The core sourcing is official
U.S. government material, which reflects the stated intent to maintain coordination. While credible, the sources describe ongoing engagement rather than a finalized, verifiable set of coordination actions, limiting independent confirmation at this time.

Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Source states this agreement was reached during a January 30, 2026 readout of Secretary Rubio's call with
UAE officials. The phrasing indicates intent to sustain ongoing engagement rather than a single, completed action (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Progress evidence: The State Department readout confirms an explicit pledge to maintain coordination and close contact. It notes discussions covered
Gaza peace process phases,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats from
Iranian-backed actors, with the commitment framed as ongoing coordination (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Status assessment: As of February 4, 2026, there is no public record of specific follow-up actions (meetings, joint statements, or initiatives) having occurred yet to demonstrate verifiable ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment. The completion condition—observable, ongoing coordination actions—has not been publicly fulfilled according to accessible official communications.
Source reliability note: The principal sourcing is an official U.S. State Department readout (State Dept, 2026-01-30), which is a primary, authoritative account of the conversation and commitments. Additional context from related State Department pages corroborates the ongoing engagement pattern but does not replace explicit follow-up actions to meet the completion condition.

U.S. government, which emphasize ongoing dialogue and coordination with the UAE.
On 2026-01-30, a State Department release quotes the two governments as agreeing to continue coordination and to keep in close contact, indicating a formal continuation of their bilateral coordination stance (State Dept, 2026-01-30).
Additionally, the two countries held their eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi in mid-January 2026, with a joint statement released on 2026-01-27, signaling ongoing high-level engagement and policy coordination (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
As of 2026-02-04, there are no publicly announced follow-up meetings, joint statements, or specific coordinated initiatives publicly documented beyond these dialogues, so verifiable action in progress remains at the level of scheduled or recent discussions (State Dept pages, 2026-01-27 and 2026-01-30).
The sources are official U.S. government communications, which provides reliability but may not capture private or in-brief coordination or any subsequent covert/short-notice interactions. The overall picture shows continued willingness to coordinate and remain in contact, with concrete milestones tied to ongoing dialogues rather than a single completed action (in_progress).

Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: The State Department released a joint statement on January 27, 2026 detailing the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue, signaling ongoing bilateral coordination across security-relevant topics. Additional notes show ongoing high-level engagement and planned forums that imply continued contact between senior officials (state.gov; publicnow.com). Reliability: State Department releases are primary official sources; Public Now aggregates official statements, supporting a view of continued coordination rather than a completed, fixed milestone.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 01:35 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: Publicly available official readouts from January 30, 2026 confirm that Secretary of State Rubio spoke with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and that they agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact. The readout highlights ongoing discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and related regional security concerns, implying an intent to maintain regular engagement.
Current status and completion assessment: There is no publicly released evidence of concrete, verifiable coordination actions (such as scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or jointly launched initiatives) since the readout. No specified milestone dates or future coordination events are documented in the cited source, so the claim remains an expressed commitment rather than a completed program.
Reliability and context: The source is an official State Department press readout, which is a primary, authoritative instrument for diplomatic communications. While it establishes intent to sustain coordination, it does not independently verify subsequent actions or quantify the level of ongoing contact beyond the statement of intent. Given the absence of concrete milestones, the status should be treated as ongoing engagement rather than completed.
Overall assessment: The claim is best categorized as in_progress until verifiable coordination actions occur and are documented.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 09:46 AMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The primary source confirming this direction is a January 30, 2026 readout from the U.S. State Department, detailing Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and noting the agreement to “continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” The article also discusses other topics elected for discussion, reinforcing ongoing bilateral engagement rather than a discrete milestone.
As of February 3, 2026, there is no public record of verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) that demonstrate tangible, ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment to stay in contact. The State Department readout does not cite a specific date for a next meeting or a concrete joint initiative.
The available evidence thus supports that the parties intended to maintain ongoing coordination, but concrete progress toward measurable coordination actions remains undocumented in publicly accessible official releases. Without additional follow-up notices or joint statements, the status appears to be in the early, ongoing phase rather than completed.
Reliability-wise, the primary source is an official government communication from the U.S. Department of State, which is appropriate for tracking diplomatic commitments. Corroborating sources from independent outlets are limited in this case and would be secondary to the primary readout.
Given the absence of published milestones or follow-up actions by February 3, 2026, the claim should be interpreted as ongoing coordination with an unclear trajectory toward completion unless new official updates emerge. The incentives for both sides—preventing regional instability and countering shared security threats—make continued engagement plausible, but verifiable progress remains to be demonstrated publicly.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 05:42 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of initial progress exists: The January 30, 2026 State Department readout states that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This confirms a formal commitment at the executive level to ongoing engagement. A separate January 2026 statement notes ongoing discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats from
Iran-backed forces, indicating broader bilateral dialogue.
Progress since the readout: Publicly verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or concrete coordinated initiatives) have not been publicly announced as of February 3, 2026. The available public record centers on the initial readout and related bilateral discussions rather than documented, measurable coordination milestones.
Source reliability and context: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State readout (official government source), which is appropriate for verifying diplomatic commitments. Secondary coverage from U.S. diplomatic channels and allied press summaries corroborates ongoing bilateral engagement, though it does not provide independent verification of specific coordination actions.
Assessment of incentives and policy context: The U.S.-UAE alignment on regional security sits within a broader strategy to counter extremism, manage Iran-related risks, and stabilize conflict zones in
the Horn of Africa and
the Middle East. If coordination becomes routine through scheduled talks or joint initiatives, it would reflect reinforced incentives to present a united front on shared security interests; failure to materialize verifiable actions would leave the stated commitment as aspirational rather than operational.
Follow-up plan: Monitor for public announcements of follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives between the U.S. and
UAE. Schedule a follow-up date for 2026-04-30 to reassess whether verifiable coordination actions have been implemented.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 04:29 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms the agreement to ongoing coordination and close contact following the January 30, 2026 call. This indicates an intent for sustained engagement rather than a single event.
Evidence of progress includes the public reiteration of continued coordination between
Washington and Abu Dhabi on key regional issues. The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation reported a phone discussion with Secretary of State Marco Rubio on January 30, 2026, noting ongoing cooperation and shared regional priorities. Public statements from U.S. and
UAE officials reflect an ongoing dialogue on
Gaza,
Sudan,
Yemen, and broader security matters.
Reliability note: The principal sources are official government communications from the U.S. State Department and the UAE MOFA, which directly state the commitment to ongoing coordination and contact. Cross-referencing with additional official and reputable outlets supports the sequence of interactions without introducing partisan framing.

Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms the agreement to sustain coordination and maintain close contact following Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. This establishes a formal commitment at the level of principal diplomatic engagement.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 12:40 AMin_progress
What the claim states: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: A State Department readout dated 2026-01-30 confirms the agreement to continue coordination and remain in close contact, with discussion focusing on regional stability and security concerns. Ongoing status: As of 2026-02-03, there is no publicly disclosed completion milestone beyond this commitment, nor a public follow-up, beyond this initial pledge. Dates and milestones: The readout is from 2026-01-30; no subsequent official milestone has been documented in accessible channels. Source reliability: The primary source is an official U.S. State Department readout; corroboration from independent outlets supports the context but does not alter the stated commitment.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 09:48 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: A State Department readout dated January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and jointly stated that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This readout explicitly ties the commitment to ongoing bilateral engagement, including discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and broader regional security topics.
Current status and completion: As of February 3, 2026, there is publicly available documentation of the commitment to ongoing coordination, but no public record of specific follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings, joint statements, or formal frameworks) having occurred since the January 30 readout. The completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions—has not yet been independently demonstrated beyond the stated agreement to stay in touch.
Dates and milestones: The only clear milestone in public records is the January 30, 2026 readout confirming the ongoing coordination pledge. While there are related State Department materials about U.S.–UAE security cooperation, they do not provide a concrete timetable for follow-up actions tied to this particular pledge.
Source reliability and caveats: The primary evidence comes from the U.S. Department of State’s official readout, a high-quality government source. Additional corroboration appears in related State Department materials summarizing bilateral engagement, but explicit post-readout coordination milestones have not yet been published publicly. Given incentives for ongoing regional coordination, continued updates from both governments should be expected in the near term.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 08:13 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This framing matches a January 2026 State Department communication describing ongoing outreach between
Washington and
Abu Dhabi. The emphasis is on sustained coordination and ongoing contact rather than a finalized timetable or published joint action plan.
There is concrete evidence of continued progress, including a January 31, 2026 call between Secretary of State and UAE Foreign Minister in which they discussed
Sudan and humanitarian ceasefire efforts and “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact” (State Department release). This demonstrates verifiable ongoing contact and engagement beyond a one-off statement.
As of early February 2026, there is no publicly documented completion of a formal, joint security initiative, scheduled follow-up meetings, or a joint statement that definitively marks completion of the coordination promise. The available public records show sustained dialogue and continued coordination, but not a conclusive milestone that signals full completion under the stated condition.
Source reliability is high for the core claim, since the assertion originates from a
U.S. government press release and subsequent State Department communications. Independent outlets have republished or summarized the exchanges, but primary verification remains with official U.S. government communications, which supports a cautious interpretation of ongoing coordination rather than completed actions.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 05:10 PMin_progress
The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms such an agreement was reached in a Secretary of State call, noting they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a contemporaneous commitment rather than a completed action.
Evidence of progress includes the substantive topics discussed in the call (
Gaza peace plan implementation,
Yemen,
Sudan humanitarian ceasefire, and countering the
Iranian-regime-backed Houthi threat) and the stated intent to maintain ongoing coordination. The readout does not describe a formal follow-up meeting or published joint actions, but it does indicate continued engagement at high levels between the two governments.
Based on available public records, there is no verifiable completion of a specific coordination milestone (e.g., a scheduled follow-up meeting or joint statement) within the period reviewed. The claim remains in a state of ongoing coordination, with the next tangible milestone likely to be a future joint engagement or public statement, if pursued.
Key dates and milestones identified include the January 30, 2026 readout and related discussions on regional issues, as well as prior high-level
UAE-U.S. communications. The reliability of the primary source (State Department readout) is high for confirming the stated agreement to stay coordinated, while the absence of a concrete follow-up event in public records means progress is not yet demonstrated by an independent, verifiable action.
Overall, the available evidence supports that the two governments committed to ongoing coordination, with current indicators showing intention and continued engagement rather than a completed, verifiable coordination action. The situation should be revisited as new official communications or publicly announced joint actions emerge.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 03:18 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms the Secretary of State spoke with UAE Foreign Minister and that they agreed to continue coordination and to remain in close contact, tied to discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen, and
Sudan.
Progress to date: As of February 3, 2026, there is a public statement of intent to coordinate, but no publicly documented follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or implemented initiatives) that demonstrate ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment.
Reliability note: The primary source is an official U.S. government release (State Department) which reflects the stated position of the two governments; coverage from other reputable outlets is limited on specific follow-up actions.
Context on incentives: The bilateral relationship has multiple enduring strategic aims (regional stability, counterterrorism, humanitarian concerns) that motivate continued coordination, but concrete, verifiable actions beyond the initial readout are not publicly evident yet.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 01:38 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and to stay in close contact, with discussion focused on regional security, humanitarian concerns, and countering threats in the region (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Current status and milestones: As of February 3, 2026, there is no public record of subsequent follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives that demonstrate verifiable ongoing coordination beyond the initial readout. The absence of documented actions means progress is currently unverified beyond the stated agreement to stay in contact (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Reliability and incentives: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State, which provides official diplomatic readouts of conversations with allied governments. Given the incentives of both governments to portray continued cooperation, it remains prudent to await concrete, verifiable follow-up actions (e.g., scheduled meetings or joint statements) before concluding completion.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 11:44 AMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability, and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms this agreement, noting they would maintain ongoing coordination and stay in touch (State Department readout, 2026-01-30).
Progress evidence: The readout states that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, signaling intent rather than a completed program (State Department readout, 2026-01-30). No separate, verifiable milestones (e.g., scheduled meetings or joint actions) are listed in the release itself.
Current status and reliability: The claim rests on an authoritative U.S. government source, which increases reliability for the stated intent. However, there are no documented follow-up actions or timelines in the release to verify concrete progress beyond the commitment to stay in contact.
Bottom line: As of 2026-02-03, the status is best described as in_progress. Public evidence suggests continued coordination is intended, but no completed or scheduled follow-up actions are publicly documented in the readout. Ongoing monitoring for subsequent statements or joint initiatives would be needed to confirm measurable progress.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 11:04 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The primary source, a January 30, 2026 State Department readout, confirms they "agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact," indicating an intent to maintain ongoing engagement. Evidence of progress includes the broader trajectory of U.S.-UAE security cooperation in recent years, such as ongoing discussions on countering illicit finance, sanctions coordination, and expanding defense and security cooperation (e.g., joint statements and frameworks announced in 2025–2026). While the January 2026 readout signals intent and continuity, there is no single public milestone documenting a concrete, verifiable action (like a scheduled follow-up meeting or a joint initiative) within the immediate timeframe of the claim. Overall, available official communications point to sustained, multi-layered coordination rather than a completed milestone, consistent with an ongoing in-progress status. Sources include the State Department readout (Jan 30, 2026) and related State Department briefings on U.S.-UAE security cooperation via public statements and joint initiatives from 2025–2026.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 11:18 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to maintain close coordination to support regional security and stability, including staying in contact. This establishes a formal commitment to ongoing engagement, rather than a one-off statement.
Progress evidence: The January 30, 2026 State Department readout explicitly notes continued coordination and close contact, signaling an ongoing bilateral effort. In addition, separate State Department releases around the same period describe ongoing U.S.-UAE engagement in security-related dialogues (e.g., Joint Military Dialogue and other bilateral forums) and in related policy dialogues, which together indicate sustained action and formal channels for coordination.
Completion status: There is no single, public completion milestone announced. However, the presence of ongoing forums (such as the cited readout and references to regular bilateral dialogues) provides verifiable evidence of continued coordination activities rather than a concluded agreement. Without a concrete end-date or announced closure, the status remains ongoing/in_progress.
Dates and milestones: The key date is January 30, 2026 (readout of the call). Related, ongoing bilateral dialogues (military and economic policy dialogues) are referenced in late January 2026 and surrounding months, indicating a program of continued engagement rather than a final, completed action.
Source reliability and neutrality: The primary source is the U.S. State Department, an official government brief. Additional corroboration comes from subsequent State Department releases describing bilateral dialogues. These sources are high-quality and neutral, though they reflect official U.S. framing. Overall, the reporting supports the claim of continued coordination without introducing partisan framing.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 09:19 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Publicly available records show ongoing bilateral engagement consistent with that description, though not as a single, discrete milestone. Evidence includes high-level statements and multiple diplomatic dialogues that emphasize sustained cooperation and regular contact between the two governments.
A concrete signal of continued engagement is the Eleventh U.S.-UAE Economic Policy Dialogue held in
Abu Dhabi on January 15, 2026, co-chaired by
UAE and
U.S. officials. While framed primarily around economic policy, the dialogue reinforces the broader bilateral partnership and the intent to maintain regular consultation across a range of security-relevant and strategic issues (State Dept, Jan 2026 release).
Additionally, the State Department published a media note on January 27, 2026 confirming that the two governments maintain ongoing dialogue and will pursue further areas of cooperation, including multilateral and security-adjacent topics. The note highlights ongoing cooperation in areas such as counter illicit finance, sanctions coordination, and other cross-cutting efforts that underpin regional stability (State Dept, Jan 2026 release).
Independent summaries from U.S. and UAE authorities in late January 2026 emphasize the bilateral relationship as multi-domain—economic, technology, energy, and strategic—underpinned by continued contact and planned follow-on discussions. These elements collectively reflect the claimed coordination and close contact, even if no single post-30 January 2026 meeting is publicly documented as the formal completion trigger (State Dept releases, Jan 2026).
Reliability note: the sources are official U.S. State Department statements and UAE-government communications, which align with the stated claim but may emphasize positive framing of ongoing cooperation. Cross-checks with independent observers or additional press coverage would help corroborate the breadth of security-focused coordination beyond economic-policy dialogues (State Dept releases, UAE MOFA, Jan 2026).
Overall, progress toward the claimed ongoing coordination and close contact is evidenced by scheduled dialogues and formal statements affirming continued engagement, though a singular, definitive completion event has not been publicly announced (no explicit completion date).
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 07:57 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: State Department communications indicate ongoing bilateral engagement, including a January 2026 call between Secretary of State Antony Blinken and
UAE officials, where they reaffirmed continued coordination and close contact on regional security issues (e.g.,
Sudan humanitarian ceasefire discussions). Subsequent State Department notices highlight ongoing dialogues and frameworks being advanced, such as the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue held in
Abu Dhabi on January 15, 2026.
Assessment of completion: There is no public, verifiable declaration of a final completion; rather, multiple, periodic statements describe ongoing coordination actions (scheduled follow-up discussions, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) and a commitment to stay in close touch. The presence of repeated meetings and formal dialogues suggests continuity, but a discrete completion milestone has not been announced.
Dates and milestones: Key dates include the January 15, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue and January 27, 2026 joint statements/public notes reaffirming continued coordination. The referenced communications also note plans for future engagement, rather than a closed-ended completion.
Source reliability note: The principal sources are U.S. State Department releases and U.S. embassy communications, which are official and contemporaneous records of policy statements and engagements. Cross-checks with related U.S.–UAE statements corroborate the pattern of ongoing coordination without signaling finality.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 05:08 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordinated efforts in support of regional security and stability and to stay in close contact. Public records show the January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirming that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and remain close in contact, indicating an ongoing commitment at the highest levels (State Department readout, 2026-01-30).
Progress evidence includes active bilateral engagement in early 2026: the United States and
UAE held their eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi on January 15, 2026, signaling continued high-level coordination on security-relevant policies and regional stability, alongside ongoing discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and
Iran-backed threats (State Department/Economic Policy Dialogue release, 2026-01-15). A follow-up readout from January 30 reiterates a commitment to continued coordination and contact, underscoring that the partnership remains in a proactive, ongoing phase (State Department readout, 2026-01-30).
There is no public evidence of a final completion or formal end to coordination as of February 2, 2026. The available materials show ongoing dialogues, no single milestone marking closure, and explicit language about continued coordination rather than closure or completion (State Department readouts, 2026-01-15; 2026-01-30).
Reliability note: the principal sources are official
U.S. government statements (State Department readouts) which directly reflect the policy stance and stated intentions of the two governments. While these indicate ongoing engagement, they do not provide independent verification of every subsequent action, so the assessment emphasizes continued coordination and contact as the current status rather than a completed milestone (official press releases, state.gov).
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 03:34 PMin_progress
What the claim says: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The State Department readout of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s call with UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan (January 30, 2026) states that they agreed to continue coordination and to stay in close contact, and it discusses ongoing engagement on
Yemen,
Gaza,
Sudan, and other regional concerns. There is no public disclosure of specific follow-up meetings, joint initiatives, or formal milestones tied to this pledge beyond the stated commitment to remain in contact.
Current status assessment: As of 2026-02-02, there are no publicly announced verifiable actions (e.g., scheduled meetings or joint statements) confirming implementation of the coordination pledge beyond the initial readout. The claim appears reasonably described as ongoing diplomatic coordination with an intention to maintain contact rather than a completed program with measurable milestones.
Source reliability note: The primary evidence is an official U.S. State Department readout, which is a direct source for the claim. No corroborating public bilateral statements with concrete coordination milestones were identified in accessible reporting at this time, suggesting cautious interpretation pending additional official updates.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 01:41 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The Jan. 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms this commitment, noting that the Secretary of State and UAE Foreign Minister agreed to continue coordination and remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The readout documents ongoing high-level engagement and a framework for continued coordination on regional issues, including
Sudan and humanitarian ceasefires, as well as broader security matters in the
Gulf and
Levant regions. There is no publicly disclosed list of concrete milestones (dates, joint statements, or scheduled follow-up meetings) in the readout itself beyond the stated intention to stay in contact.
Current status: As of Feb. 2, 2026, no subsequent public announcement has been identified to confirm a specific follow-up meeting or joint initiative. The available official record demonstrates intent to maintain coordination, but verifiable, ongoing actions beyond the stated commitment have not been publicly documented.
Source reliability and caveats: The principal source is the U.S. Department of State official readout (Executive-level spokesperson statement), which is a primary and authoritative record of the conversation. Cross-checks with additional government or UAE sources have not yielded publicly verifiable follow-up actions as of the present date; therefore, the assessment relies on the Department’s own documentation.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 12:07 PMin_progress
Summary of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, per a January 30, 2026 State Department readout. The statement describes an intention rather than a completed action.
Evidence of progress: The readout confirms an explicit commitment to ongoing coordination and continued close contact between the two governments. It cites discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and broader regional security, indicating an active bilateral dialog surrounding key peace and stability issues.
Current status and completion assessment: As of February 2, 2026, there is no publicly documented follow-up action (such as a scheduled meeting, joint statement, or agreed initiative) that would demonstrate verifiable ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment. The completion condition—visible, ongoing coordination actions—has not yet been independently verifiable in public records.
Reliability and context: The source is an official U.S. government press readout, which supports the claim’s framing. If further coordination actions are announced, they should be tracked against this baseline.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 09:31 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: Public records show ongoing bilateral security engagement after the January 2026 readout. The U.S. and
UAE conducted their ninth Joint Military Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi on September 25–26, 2025, a formal mechanism for coordinating defense and regional security priorities. Separate high-level exchanges in early 2026, including the Economic Policy Dialogue in January 2026, indicate sustained bilateral contact and policy coordination across security-adjacent issues.
Current status: The completion condition calls for verifiable, ongoing coordination actions and documented ongoing contact. The combination of the 2025 Joint Military Dialogue and subsequent 2026 discussions satisfies the criterion of ongoing coordination and contact through early 2026, with no indications of termination as of February 2026.
Dates and milestones: September 25–26, 2025 – 9th U.S.–UAE Joint Military Dialogue in Abu Dhabi; January 15–26, 2026 – Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue; January 30, 2026 – State Department readout affirming continued coordination and close contact.
Source reliability: Official U.S. government communications (State Department readouts and DoD/War.gov summaries) provide direct corroboration of the claimed coordination and contact, reflecting formal, policy-driven engagement between the two governments.

Evidence of formalization: A State Department release dated 2026-01-30 confirms their agreement to sustain coordination and close contact, signaling an ongoing diplomatic posture (State.gov, 2026-01-30). Contextual indicators: Publicly visible mechanisms such as the U.S.-UAE Major Defense Partnership statements and regular dialogues (e.g., Joint Military Dialogue) reflect ongoing bilateral coordination efforts around security and stability (US Embassy statements; DoD releases). These pieces collectively support a trajectory of continued engagement, though the release itself does not specify post-2026 milestones.

Reliability note: The primary source is an official State Department readout, a credible source for diplomatic commitments. Limited additional reporting in the immediate period means the completion status remains unconfirmed.
Follow-up: 2026-03-01

Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: The January 30, 2026 State Department readout states that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to stay in close contact. The January 27, 2026 media note confirms ongoing engagement through the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue and related discussions.
Current status: The language indicates ongoing coordination and contact, but publicly available reporting has not disclosed concrete, verifiable milestones (e.g., scheduled follow-up meetings or joint initiatives) beyond formal dialogues.
Dates and milestones: Key events include the January 15–27, 2026 period with the Abu Dhabi Economic Policy Dialogue, and subsequent State Department statements (Jan 27 and Jan 30, 2026) signaling continued cooperation.
Reliability note: The sources are official U.S. government communications, which are primary for documenting statements and dialogues. Cross-checking with UAE official statements could provide additional corroboration of specific initiatives.
Overall assessment: Based on the available statements, coordination is ongoing, but a definite completion milestone remains unreported as of the current date.

The claim states that the
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Public records show ongoing bilateral engagement, including regular dialogues and high-level interactions, that aim to sustain security cooperation and regional stability.
There is evidence of progress through structured fora such as economic policy dialogues and defense conversations, as well as renewed emphasis on coordinated efforts to counter illicit finance and other shared security concerns.
No explicit end date exists for this coordination drive; instead, verifiable actions appear as ongoing, scheduled meetings, joint statements, and coordinated initiatives demonstrating continued contact.
The available sources are official government communications, which are generally reliable for policy intent; independent reporting can provide context but is secondary to formal statements.
Overall, the relationship appears to be in_progress, with concrete, verifiable coordination actions expected to continue rather than a completed milestone.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 07:19 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This was expressed in a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of a call between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The wording indicates an intent to maintain ongoing engagement rather than a concluded agreement or milestone.
Evidence of progress includes the explicit commitment to continue coordination and to stay in close contact, as stated in the readout. The State Department notes that the two leaders discussed regional issues and agreed to sustain coordination, which suggests an operationalized intent beyond a one-off conversation. There is no public, verifiable record of a signed agreement or a completed milestone, but the language signals ongoing diplomacy.
Additional context comes from a January 2025 State Department fact sheet on U.S.-UAE security cooperation, which describes broad, ongoing collaboration on border and maritime security, counterterrorism, and defense interoperability. That document demonstrates a framework of sustained cooperation that supports the claim of continued coordination. Taken together, these sources indicate a stable trajectory of engagement rather than a completed action.
There is no evidence in public records of a formal closure or completion of a specific coordination milestone as of February 1, 2026. The available materials point to an in-progress relationship with regular dialogue and shared security objectives, rather than a final or concluded action. The reliability of the claim rests on official readouts from the State Department and the longstanding publicly documented security partnership between the two countries.
Overall, the claim appears credible and remains in the progression phase, with explicit intent to maintain coordination and contact but no published completion of a discrete, verifiable coordination action by the stated date.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 04:54 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Basis for assessment: the State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms a mutual pledge to maintain coordination and keep in contact, but does not provide concrete, publicized follow-up actions.
Evidence of progress: The readout notes ongoing discussions on regional security issues and specific topics (
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and countering threats) and affirms a commitment to continue coordination. However, it does not document scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or other verifiable initiatives as of February 1, 2026.
Current status: As of the current date, there is no publicly available record of completed or scheduled verifiable coordination actions beyond the stated commitment. The claim remains in the “in progress” category pending tangible, publicly verifiable steps (e.g., joint statements, meetings, or initiatives).
Reliability note: The primary sourcing is an official U.S. State Department readout, which is a high-reliability source for statements of bilateral intent. Other publicly available sources echo broad cooperation but do not provide independent verification of concrete actions since the readout. The lack of published follow-up milestones suggests the coordination is ongoing but not yet evidenced by verifiable actions.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 03:04 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan discussed ongoing engagement on regional issues and “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This follows the January 15, 2026 Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi, which included joint statements and notes of ongoing cooperation across multiple domains.
Current status and interpretation: As of February 1, 2026, there is public acknowledgment of continued coordination at high levels and scheduled or anticipated follow-on discussions in various formats (readouts, joint statements) but no public disclosure of a completed coordination action beyond the stated intent to stay in contact.
Dates and milestones: Key items include the January 15, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue in Abu Dhabi and the January 30, 2026 State Department readout reiterating coordination. A related January 27, 2026 State Department media note framed the dialogue and downstream cooperation, including economic, security, and regional stability topics.
Source reliability and context: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State, an official government channel, which strengthens the credibility of the claim and its current status. State Department communications are typically reliable for official positions and stated commitments, though they may not always reveal private or subsequent actions until publicly announced.
Note on incentives: The statements reflect continued bilateral coordination in a broad security and stability framework, consistent with long-standing U.S.–UAE cooperation. Given both governments’ emphasis on strategic partnership, final progress will hinge on concrete follow-up actions (meetings, statements, or initiatives) publicly disclosed in the future.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 01:15 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms the two sides discussed ongoing implementation and their intention to "continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact," establishing a formal commitment to coordination in an official document.
Progress toward completion: No publicly documented follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or concrete initiatives) have been publicly announced as of February 1, 2026 beyond the stated commitment.
Reliability note: The primary item is an official State Department readout, which is a reliable source for diplomatic statements; the absence of subsequent publicly verifiable milestones means the completion condition remains unmet as of now.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 11:54 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination to support regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
What progress is documented: A January 27, 2026 State Department media note confirms ongoing bilateral engagement, including the Eleventh Economic Policy Dialogue and cooperation on security-related areas such as illicit finance and sanctions coordination, with explicit intent to maintain close contact.
Evidence of structured coordination: The Economic Policy Dialogue and related bilateral activities indicate formalized, scheduled engagement between the two governments, supported by public statements and policy notes from the
U.S. side.
Milestones and dates: The dialogue occurred in January 2026, with follow-up mechanisms referenced in the State Department materials, and mentions of ongoing coordination in subsequent releases.
Reliability of sources: Official U.S. government communications (State Department) are primary sources for this claim and provide verifiable evidence of ongoing coordination, though they frame coordination as continuing policy dialogue rather than a single completed action.
Assessment: Given the official nature of the sources and the absence of a final completion date, the status is best described as in_progress, with documented ongoing coordination activities and contact as of January 2026.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 09:47 AMcomplete
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress includes a January 30, 2026 State Department release acknowledging the agreement to sustained coordination and ongoing contact between the two governments. This is complemented by subsequent high‑level engagement, notably the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue held January 15, 2026, which demonstrates continued bilateral coordination on security‑relevant issues within a broader strategic framework (State Dept release; UAE MOFA press release). Overall, publicly verifiable actions indicate ongoing coordination and contact between the two countries in the period after the stated agreement. Reliability note: official U.S. and
UAE government communications are primary sources; coverage from these agencies aligns on the sequence and nature of meetings and joint initiatives.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 04:48 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Publicly available sources indicate ongoing high-level engagement between the two governments, including a January 15, 2026 Economic Policy Dialogue in
Abu Dhabi where
U.S. and
UAE officials committed to expanding bilateral cooperation across trade, investment, technology, and security-related areas. The State Department’s joint statement emphasizes continued coordination in areas such as regional stability, critical minerals, and multilateral cooperation (e.g., Pax
Silica, IMEC), and notes that officials agreed to pursue further collaboration on shared security and regional objectives. The UAE’s participation in
Pax Silica, announced January 14, 2026, and related discussions suggest sustained alignment on governance and supply-chain security that underpin regional stability. Overall, there is evidence of verifiably ongoing coordination actions and regular contact, but no formal closure or completion of a defined milestone signaling an end state.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 02:59 AMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and to stay in close contact.
Current status: There is a public statement of intent to maintain coordination, but no publicly verified follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) have been published to demonstrate ongoing coordination beyond the stated commitment.
Dates and milestones: The available explicit milestone is the January 30, 2026 readout; no subsequent publicly documented actions have been corroborated as of now.
Source reliability and caveats: The readout is an official State Department document, which is authoritative for the commitment. The absence of additional public actions means the status remains at the commitment stage rather than confirmed execution.
Overall assessment: Based on current public reporting, the claim is best characterized as in_progress. Further verifiable actions (meetings, statements, or initiatives) would be needed to move to completion.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 12:55 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Progress evidence: On January 30, 2026, the State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan stated that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This directly confirms ongoing bilateral contact as of that date. Separately, State Department releases indicate active bilateral dialogue, including the Eleventh U.S.–UAE Economic Policy Dialogue held in
Abu Dhabi on January 15, 2026, with a joint statement issued January 27 outlining continued bilateral cooperation (economic policy, trade, and regional issues) and the intention to pursue further collaboration. These items collectively show structured, ongoing engagement rather than a one-off exchange.
Milestones and concrete signs: The January 27 joint statement formalizes the Economic Policy Dialogue and highlights multiple sectors of cooperation (trade, investment, critical minerals,
AI, energy, finance) as ongoing, reinforcing the broader coordination framework. The January 30 readout explicitly commits to “continue coordination” and to stay in close contact, and public-facing statements describe continued engagement across security, diplomacy, and economic policy domains. A scheduled or reported follow-up activity (e.g., future meetings or statements) is implied by these repeated high-level engagements, though specific next steps beyond general coordination are not publicly dated.
Reliability of sources: All cited materials originate from official U.S. government channels (State Department Office of the Spokesperson), which provides official readouts and statements from both sides. While these sources are credible and authoritative for diplomatic engagements, they reflect official narratives and may emphasize ongoing dialogue over independent verification of every action. Taken together, they support a pattern of persistent coordination rather than a finished, concluded action.
Status note: Based on current publicly available records, there is clear evidence of ongoing coordination and sustained contact between
the United States and the UAE, with multiple formal dialogues and repeated assurances of continued engagement. There is no documented completion date or finalization of a singular, final action; the relationship appears to remain in a state of active, multi-domain coordination.
Reliability caveat: If further milestones (e.g., a scheduled follow-up meeting with a precise date, joint statements, or concrete initiatives) are announced, they could indicate strengthened progress toward formal completion of the coordination objective. Until such a single milestone is reported, the status remains in_progress.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 10:53 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact.
Evidence of progress: A January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan agreed to continue coordination and to remain in close contact, with discussion focused on regional security issues and ongoing engagement. This establishes an explicit commitment to continued dialogue.
Current status: Publicly verifiable actions demonstrating ongoing coordination beyond the initial agreement are not clearly documented in widely accessible official statements through January 31, 2026. There are related indicators of ongoing U.S.–UAE security cooperation in broader bilateral materials, but direct follow-up milestones (e.g., named meetings, joint statements, or concrete coordinated initiatives) specific to this pledge have not been publicly published in this snapshot.
Dates and milestones: The primary milestone is the January 30, 2026 readout confirming the commitment. No subsequent public follow-up meetings or joint actions have been publicly tied to this specific coordination commitment within the provided sources up to January 31, 2026.
Source reliability and caveats: The principal source is the U.S. Department of State’s official readout, a primary and authoritative record for this claim. Related U.S.–UAE security material (e.g., the State Department’s security cooperation page) supports an ongoing bilateral security relationship, but does not independently verify post-January 2026 actions tied to this exact pledge.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 08:46 PMin_progress
Restated claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. This is drawn from the U.S. Department of State readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on January 30, 2026, which states they "agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact." (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Evidence of progress: The stated outcome is ongoing coordination rather than a discrete milestone. The readout confirms an intent to maintain contact and coordinate on regional security, but does not document specific follow-up actions, dates, or concurrent initiatives at the time of publication. As of 2026-01-31, no publicly reported follow-up meetings or joint statements have been published to verify concrete actions. (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Completion status: There is no verifiable evidence yet of scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives beyond the mutual commitment to stay in contact. The project’s completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions and documented ongoing contact—has not been demonstrated in publicly available records up to now. (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Dates and milestones: The only dated item is the January 30, 2026 readout itself. Without subsequent public evidence of meetings or coordinated actions, no milestones can be confirmed at this time. The absence of documented milestones suggests the effort remains in the early, ongoing phase. (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Source reliability note: The primary source is the U.S. State Department readout, an official government communication. While it reliably reflects the parties’ stated intent to continue coordination, it provides limited detail on concrete actions or timing, and additional independent corroboration would strengthen verification. (State Dept readout, 2026-01-30).
Follow-up: If interested, a targeted check after 6–8 weeks for any public statements, joint statements, or scheduled meetings between U.S. and
UAE officials could clarify whether new coordination actions have occurred. Proposed follow-up date: 2026-04-30.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 07:13 PMin_progress
Claim restated: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. Evidence of progress: The State Department readout from January 30, 2026 confirms a call between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan in which they agreed to continue coordination and stay in close contact, with discussion focused on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and regional security. Current status and milestones: There is no public reporting of verifiable follow-up actions (such as scheduled meetings, joint statements, or coordinated initiatives) as of 2026-01-31. The completion condition—demonstrable ongoing coordination—has not yet been evidenced publicly and remains in_progress. Source reliability and incentives: The primary source is a U.S. government press readout, which is authoritative for official statements, though it provides limited concrete milestones. Its emphasis on continued coordination aligns with typical diplomatic practice and incentives to maintain allied alignment on regional security concerns.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 04:49 PMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms the two sides “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact,” following Secretary Rubio’s call with
UAE leadership on January 30, 2026. This establishes intent to maintain high-level engagement but does not itself document concrete actions.
Evidence of progress: The publicly available record so far is the January 30, 2026 readout, which notes ongoing discussions on
Gaza peace implementation,
Yemen,
Sudan, and regional security, and then formalizes a commitment to continue coordination. There is no cited follow-up meeting, joint statement, or coordinated initiative in the record to date.
Current status relative to completion: There are no verifiable, ongoing coordination actions (e.g., scheduled follow-up meetings or joint initiatives) documented beyond the commitment to stay in close contact. Without subsequent public actions or statements, the completion condition has not yet been demonstrated.
Reliability and context: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State readout from January 30, 2026, an official and typically reliable account of the exchange. While other bilateral statements and high-level diplomacy exist, they do not replace the need for verifiable, ongoing coordination actions to satisfy the completion condition. The record remains open for future updates.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 02:46 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The primary public articulation of this commitment comes from a January 30, 2026 State Department readout of Secretary Rubio’s call with UAE Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, which notes that they “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” This establishes a formal, bilateral intent to sustain engagement, but it does not itself enumerate specific, verifiable actions.
Evidence of progress beyond the stated commitment is limited in publicly accessible sources. The State Department readout confirms the intention to stay in touch but does not publish scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or concrete coordinated initiatives tied to regional security. No additional public milestones or documented actions have been found as of 2026-01-31.
Given the absence of verifiable follow-on actions in public records, the completion condition—ongoing coordination actions with measurable milestones—has not yet been demonstrated. The claim remains plausible and likely ongoing, but it lacks publicly verifiable progress to date.
Reliability note: the key source is an official State Department readout (January 30, 2026), which is appropriate for foundational claims about diplomatic coordination. Publicly available follow-up documentation appears limited, so the assessment relies on official statements without corroborating, independently verifiable milestones at this time. Follow-up checks are recommended to confirm any subsequent meetings or joint initiatives.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 01:03 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact, per a January 30, 2026 State Department readout.
Evidence of progress: The State Department publicly framed this as an ongoing commitment and noted that Secretary of State Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan would maintain coordination and close contact. No additional verifiable actions (such as scheduled follow-up meetings, joint statements, or joint initiatives) have been publicly published in the immediate aftermath to date (Jan 31, 2026).
Assessment of completion status: There is no documented completion or concrete milestone demonstrating ongoing coordination beyond the stated agreement to stay in touch. The completion condition—verifiable, ongoing coordination actions and documented ongoing contact—has not yet been demonstrated publicly.
Dates and milestones: The only dated item is the Jan 30, 2026 readout. Without subsequent public actions or statements, no milestone has been verified. If new follow-up meetings, joint statements, or formal coordination initiatives appear, they would constitute progress toward completion.
Source reliability note: The principal source is the U.S. Department of State (Office of the Spokesperson) readout, an official government communication. While it confirms the stated intention to maintain coordination, it does not provide independent corroboration of subsequent actions. Additional corroboration from
UAE or other neutral outlets would strengthen verification.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 11:22 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States and
the United Arab Emirates agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The State Department readout confirms this commitment, noting that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan “agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact.” (State Department readout, Jan 30, 2026).
As of 2026-01-31, there is no publicly verifiable record of a scheduled follow-up meeting, joint statement, or specific coordinated initiative that demonstrates ongoing coordination beyond the stated intent. Public materials available so far reflect the initial acknowledgment of continued coordination rather than a completed series of actions. The absence of concrete, documented milestones makes the current status best characterized as in_progress rather than complete.
Related U.S.–UAE engagement in early 2026 has included other high-level discussions (e.g., economic policy dialogue and regional security topics), but those items do not self-evidently constitute verifiable, ongoing coordination actions directly tied to the stated commitment. The presence of multiple, separate channels suggests a framework for continued contact, not a defined completion of coordination tasks.
Key dates to watch include any subsequent State Department readouts, joint statements, or announced meetings between
U.S. and
UAE officials that explicitly demonstrate ongoing coordination in regional security. At present, the claim rests on an intention publicly stated by the two governments, with no independently verifiable milestones yet published.
Source reliability: the primary source is an official State Department readout dated January 30, 2026, which is a high-quality, primary document for the claim. Additional context from related State Department or UAE government communications could clarify progress if and when follow-up actions are announced.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 09:45 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim: The
U.S. and the UAE agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and to remain in close contact. The January 30, 2026 State Department readout confirms this commitment, noting that Secretary Rubio and UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan "agreed to continue coordination in support of regional security and stability and remain in close contact." (State Department, Jan 30, 2026).
Progress evidence: The readout documents the intention to maintain high-level coordination and ongoing contact, and it situates the pledge within broader discussions on
Gaza,
Yemen,
Sudan, and regional stability. There are no public, verifiable actions yet (such as scheduled follow-up meetings or joint statements) beyond the stated commitment.
Current status: As of January 30, 2026, the claim is explicitly acknowledged by both governments, but no completion date or concrete next-steps are announced in public records. The absence of a defined milestone means progress cannot be independently verified beyond the mutual pledge to stay in touch.
Reliability and context: The primary source is an official State Department readout, which is a high-quality, contemporary government document. No independent corroboration of subsequent actions is available in the public record at this time. The claim’s status remains contingent on future, verifiable coordination actions being announced.
