كان ملفت أن رئيس الوزراء أنثوني إزي تحدث مع المسؤولين في الإمارات، وحتى باني وغ وزيرة الخارجية ناشطة أيضا في هذا المجال.
spk_1
وحسب معلومات، يبدو صار اتفاق دبلوماسي سمح بفتح المجال الجوي الإماراتي جزئيا لإجلاء بعض العالقين. في خطوة جاءت نتيجة تواصل بقنوات يعني ربما غير معلنة مع إيران وبوساطة من قطر وأيضا من سلطنة عمان، وشفنا أيضا إرسال طائرتين عسكريتين.

فارس وزيرة الخارجية الأسترالية باني وانغ يعني وصفت الوضع بأنه أزمة قنصلية غير مسبوقة، أكدت أن الحكومة تعمل على وضع خيارات متعددة لإجلاء الأستراليين الراغبين بالمغادرة، رغم أن رحلات التجارية تبقى الخيار المتاح حاليا.

من بين 24000 أسترالي وأسترالية عايشين بالإمارات العربية المتحدة. كارين كارول وآدم مألوف انتقلوا للعيش بالإمارات مع أولادهم الثلاثة منذ حوالي
spk_0
عام. كارين وآدم لبنانيين الأصل طبول الحرب للأسف منا غريبة عن حياتهم، ولكن كيف يعيشوا اليوم كعائلة؟ كيف يرافقوا أولادهم بهذه اللحظات التي ما كانت على البال؟
spk_0
ولا على الخاطر أصروا يبقوا معنا مباشرة على الهواء ونعيش معهم اللحظات على توقيت الإمارات وعلى توقيت الحرب. مساء الخير آدم ومساء الخير كارين.

Good evening Petra. Hi,
spk_0
We are good. We are checking on you. Our hearts and thoughts are with you, Adam, Karen.
spk_0
انتقلت من سنة تقريبا لإعادة الاستقال.
spk_0
في الإمارات بعد ما حاولتم ترجعوا تعيشوا بأستراليا اليوم مع أولادكم عم تعيشوا لحظات أبدا ما كانت عم تخطر على بالكم.
spk_2
Petra, it's been surprising, to be honest.
spk_2
بتعرفي نحنا اللبنانية not very lucky with war يعني عيلتنا هربت من زمان من لبنان لأنه هربوا من الحرب.
spk_2
راحوا على أستراليا وتأقلموا بأستراليا ونحن قررنا من 20 سنة نرجع على دبي وما حدا كان بيفكر أبدا إنه نعيش حرب بدبي بس الحمد لله آه we are safe.
spk_2
The leadership here is beautiful. They're keeping us safe all the time. Luet has seen the Amin.
spk_2
Life is going on as usual.
spk_2
بس أكيد الأصوات ما بتريح آه they get a bit anxious بنطمنهم بنريحهم بنكون open معهم ومنكفي australians are very
spk_1
أكيد أكيد. دعنا نرى الأولاد كيف يتعاملون، بدأت حديث كارين عن هذا الموضوع، دعوا نسمع أن نرى الأولاد راين وريك وتريسي كيف يتعاملون مع هذه الظروف، ونرجع نكمل حديثنا.

Honestly, in my opinion, I feel safe knowing that the UAE government has our backs and is like always keeping us safe.
spk_4
And the amount of missiles that they intercepted is really impressive, and I hope this ends, and I hope that we're all safe in the end.
spk_5
I've been living in Dubai for several years, and not one time have I felt unsafe, especially now during the conflict with Iran, the UAE government has ensured us we've been taken care of and just to follow the protocols they have been giving us, and I'm hoping this will end soon.
spk_6
My opinion on the situation in the Middle East is Nick.
spk_6
85% of my brain is saying we're safe in the Middle East, we have a good government, and we're safe. And then 15% of my brain is saying, I want to leave. I feel unsafe. So my opinion is very mixed.
spk_1
Mixed, mixed feelings. Very good point.
spk_1
كيف تتعاملوا اليوم؟ دعنا نسمع من آدم، أكيد بلبنان الوضع أصعب يعني، ونرى mass displacement ونرى وضع يعني هناك uncertainty كثيرا، هل تحكموا مع الباقي العيلة في لبنان؟ كيف تتعاملوا مع هذا الموضوع؟ يعني كبير كبير
spk_3
Honest, the family, the men, they keep calling us and calling us even though they have their own issues.
spk_3
To deal with which honestly are far more uh significant than what we're dealing with here at the moment, of course the family in Australia is, is concerned as well, um but the interesting thing is that,
spk_3
Uh, because they're hearing from us on the ground what is going on, I think that gives them a, a, a greater level of comfort in terms of the way the situation is being, uh, dealt with here, uh, but,
spk_3
I think you know the the the the wonders of modern technology, the ability to see what's going on live in real time, I think is of great comfort to them.
spk_0
Adam, you're in an unpleasant situation. The family in Australia is so concerned, so is the family in Lebanon. How are you assuring yourself, the kids, loved ones in Australia?
spk_0
And loved ones living amidst unprecedented war in Lebanon.
spk_3
Look, when it comes to the kids, I mean we've always been very open and transparent with them about what goes on in the world. I mean, unfortunately there are realities in our
spk_3
Modern society which no amount of, uh let's say sugarcoating will help them deal with that, and so our our approach has been to explain to them what's going on in a, in an age appropriate manner, and to ensure that they have the facts and, you know, in in today's world where there are so many sources of information from so many different channels, it's hard to distinguish between what is real and what's not and,
spk_3
The our aim is to give them the facts, help them to understand the situation, but also to, to make them realise that, uh we we are in a place as Karen mentioned, where the, the leadership has gone beyond all,
spk_3
Boundaries or standards to, to at all costs
spk_0
to to protect safety,
spk_3
and I mean that's the, that's the goal of any modern government is to, is the safety and security of its people and the government here has done that, um, as they say in the French par excellence, it's, it's unbelievable what's happened here, um, so, and in terms of the family, I mean it's the same approach, um, you know, when things are a bit,
spk_3
Concerning, we tell them when they're not, we tell them as well. Um, I think it's, it's that transparency, which is critical, uh, and, and I would,
spk_3
I would commend that approach to anyone here and also to those around the world who want to know what's going on here is to very carefully fact check what you see and ensure that you're getting the right
spk_1
information, which is very important, getting the accurate information at this very sensitive time. Adam, you've spent more than 2 decades building a Korea, including like half of it, nearly 10 years in the United Arab Emirates.
spk_1
How do you see the situation unfolding? Would you ever consider going back to Australia, um, just for more stability, maybe more certainty? So
spk_3
shockingly, I've, I've been here 20 I've actually been here 20 years, um, and it feels like yesterday when I came here.
spk_3
How do I, how do I see what's happening? Look,
spk_3
I think that this is something which
spk_3
In many respects has been brewing for some time.
spk_3
Uh, it is something which, because of that, the, the governments, particularly of the Gulf region, have been preparing for. Um, I think it's a case of, um, you know, sort of for forewarned is forearmed, and,
spk_3
I don't see this playing out in the manner which many people do think that it will play out, which is I think a very alarmist, approach or a very alarmist er belief. I think that this will resolve,
spk_3
Uh, sooner rather than later, I think that the, the Gulf countries are united in their approach to this. Um, you know, there is a conflict going on between Israel and Iran, but frankly it's not our war. Um, it's, it's, it's, we're not part of this.
spk_3
Regional conflict will come to an end soon, uh, and it will produce, I think an opportunity for, for the Gulf and particularly the UAE and and that's the the country that we know best because we live here, um, it will produce an opportunity for the UAE to continue its spectacular growth.
spk_3
Um, and a lot of that, as I said, is due to the leadership here. I, I keep saying it and I keep reiterating it, but I, I, I can't underscore the importance, um, more. So I think that.
spk_3
It, it, there's always been tension in this region, whether it's, you know, in, in Iran, the Gulf, Syria, Lebanon, it's an unfortunate byproduct of history, but I think that,
spk_3
It will, it will have a positive outcome and um I think that for people who are here, I would dare say that's the opinion held by many at this point in time.

We've been listening to UAE President Sheikh Mohammad Zaid and his firm stance on your safety without any compromise. Back to you, Karen.
