The United Arab Emirates has restricted funding for its citizens who want to study at British universities, the latest sign of tensions over the UK's decision not to proscribe the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood group. Abu Dhabi's decision to exclude UK institutions from a list of universities eligible for state scholarships comes as relations between the two historic allies have frayed in recent years. In June, the UAE higher education ministry published a list of global universities for which scholarships would be approved and qualifications certified, as part of reforms that limited funding to the best-performing institutions.
The UK is too radical for UAE .... Islam is collapsing in the ME, but the West is embracing it. LOL
