US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, UAE Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, at the State Department on Tuesday.
Sheikh Abdullah was greeted by Mr Rubio in Washington a day after Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau welcomed UAE Assistant Foreign Minister Lana Nusseibeh to the State Department.
US President Donald Trump visited the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar last month for a major trip that saw major business and investment announcements and the US lifting sanctions on Syria.
Mr Rubio later said that he and Sheikh Abdullah worked to sustain momentum from Mr Trump's "historic visit" to Abu Dhabi.
"We discussed economic opportunities, regional security and humanitarian efforts to mark the growing partnership between the United States and the UAE," Mr Rubio said on X.
Mr Landau said in a statement that during Monday's meeting with Ms Nusseibeh, the two discussed security, stability and prosperity in the Middle East as well as a path to ending the conflict in Sudan.

Why your domicile status is important
Your UK residence status is assessed using the statutory residence test. While your residence status – ie where you live - is assessed every year, your domicile status is assessed over your lifetime.
Your domicile of origin generally comes from your parents and if your parents were not married, then it is decided by your father. Your domicile is generally the country your father considered his permanent home when you were born.
UK residents who have their permanent home ("domicile") outside the UK may not have to pay UK tax on foreign income. For example, they do not pay tax on foreign income or gains if they are less than £2,000 in the tax year and do not transfer that gain to a UK bank account.
A UK-domiciled person, however, is liable for UK tax on their worldwide income and gains when they are resident in the UK.
