Dubai (Jang News) UAE urged the incoming U.S. administration to use brains instead of brawn for solving world crises and should abolish the wrong measures taken by the Bush administration. While addressing a ceremony, Vice President and Minister Sheikh Mohammad bin Rashid al-Maktoum stated that he wants the U.S. to know that the “solution to current problems does not include war, force and arms. God gave us brains and brawn so we should make use of our wisdom in order to bring some positive changes.” He said “[the] situation has not changed in Afghanistan since the war because force was used. If we had helped the poor and provided education to the needy in war-torn places, we could have overcome many of those crises where huge amounts of money have been spent on armed forces.”
