"International crime cooperation between Australia and the United Arab Emirates has been significantly strengthened, Minister for Justice and Customs, David Johnston said. “Australia welcomes today’s treaty signing with the United Arab Emirates,” Senator Johnston said. “These treaties represent a significant step in strengthening our cooperative ties to tackle transnational crime. “The signing of the extradition and mutual assistance treaties will enhance our ability to effectively combat transnational crime including terrorism, people trafficking, money laundering and corruption."
