UAE people stand united behind wise leadership and historic decisions
UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Wednesday appointed Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Presidency Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan as his vice president, along with UAE Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai Sheikh Mohamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, as ruler of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, issued four Emiri decrees that included the appointment of Sheikh Khalid Bin Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan as crown prince in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and the reformation of the Executive Council of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi under his chairmanship.
Sheikh Hazza bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Sheikh Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan were appointed as Deputy Governors of Abu Dhabi.
Promoting stability and prosperity
These decisions are of particular significance as they coincide with the approaching of the first anniversary of the inauguration of Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan as President of the United Arab Emirates on May 14.
The appointments are clear steps that strengthen the country’s stability and prosperity in the UAE in general and Abu Dhabi in particular. It also lays the foundations for a future that the UAE leadership has already said will be better, brighter and more proud.
The UAE needs to strengthen its skills to help it achieve its goals and objectives for the next 50 years in order to achieve its goal of “Emirates 2071 Centennial” as the best country in the world and the most advanced in the world.
Wide Internal Welcome
The appointments were widely welcomed by the rulers of the other emirates, who congratulated Khalid bin Mohamed, as well as the brothers of President Sheikh Mansour, Sheikh Tahnoun, and Sheikh Hazza after they were appointed to other leadership positions in the same decree.
UAE citizens also said the appointments of President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan are historic and important, and contribute to strengthening the march of building and development and moving forward toward a future of leadership, excellence and development at a confident pace led by the country’s sheiks and leaders.
They expressed their pride in their wise leadership, extending congratulations to Sheik Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan on his appointment as Vice-President, Sheik Hazza bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Sheik Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan on their appointment as Deputy Ruler of Abu Dhabi, and Sheikh Khalid bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan for his appointment as Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi.
“The UAE, under its wise leadership and its sheiks, continues its march towards excellence and global leadership, proceeding from the visions that have defined its features and laid down its bases, which were forgiven to it by Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, may God rest his soul, the founder of the Federation,” said lawyer Shahd Al Mazemi.
“These appointments are part of a month of good and giving,” said Hamda al-Kaabi. “We ask God to make them the best support and assistance to our Head of State, and to help them in their mission of serving the country and upholding its status.”
“The UAE is living in great joy with the president’s decisions and the new appointments of the country’s Sheikh,” said Hameed al-Falasi. “All the people of the UAE listen and obey their leadership and stand united behind it in the process of building and development.”
A special relationship between the president and the people
UAE political analyst Mohammed Taqi said these appointments are a fundamental right of the president based on “Sheikh Mohamed’s view of individuals best suited for the national interest.” He added that they reflect the distinguished relationship between the president and the people of the UAE, which is “based on a tribal social contract,” that is, respect for customs and cultural heritage.
“The UAE is a state of solid constitutional institutions that work in accordance with firm, legally-rooted traditions, including the Supreme Council of the Union, the Council of Ministers, national councils and the judiciary, and these institutions work in harmony and harmony to continue the path of building and giving,” he said.
