French President Nicolas Sarkozy has confirmed that he will sign a nuclear co-operation deal with the United Arab Emirates during his regional tour.
It will be the third such deal Mr Sarkozy has made with Muslim countries since taking office in May last year.
He said the Arab world should have the same rights to civilian nuclear programmes as enjoyed by others.
Mr Sarkozy has been working to ensure that France benefits from any such proliferation - just as he has helped sell French nuclear know-how to China.
