Burj Khalifa (C), the world's tallest tower, is seen engulfed with fog as it stands behind a traditional mosque in the early hours of the morning, in Dubai on November 25, 2013. The Emirati city is competing with Brazil's Sao Paulo, the Turkish city of Izmir and Ekaterinburg in Russia to host the Universal Exposition in 2020 according to the International Exhibitions Bureau (BIE), which oversees the organisation of these large-scale events. Dubai could present a “positive” image of tolerance in a region rocked by turmoil if it wins a bid to host the six months event, UAE Minister of State Reem al-Hashimy said.
