On April 23, the United States is considering providing currency swap lines to the UAE and other Gulf and Asian allies, as these economies have been impacted by Trump's actions regarding the war with Iran. U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated on Wednesday that such financial instruments, which ensure access to dollars and help maintain financial stability, are intended to 'maintain order in the dollar financing market and prevent U.S. assets from being sold off in a disorderly manner.' Yellen made these remarks during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing. The day before, Trump confirmed reports that the U.S. is considering establishing swap lines with the UAE. Yellen noted that any such arrangement would benefit both the UAE and the U.S. She did not specify which other countries had made requests. UAE Ambassador to Washington Yousef Al Otaiba stated that any implication that the UAE needs external financial support misreads the facts. A person familiar with the UAE's perspective described the swap lines as an 'emergency measure.' This is about building confidence and indicating that the UAE is one of the most trusted economies, like Japan and Europe, and the U.S. is categorizing the UAE in this group.
