HISTORIC ADDRESS BY UAE PRESIDENT: UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s address to the nation on Wednesday was historic. In his first public speech after taking over, he reassured citizens that their empowerment would remain top priority, even as he appreciated the “valued role” of expatriates in building the UAE. Every point that he touched upon, whether it was the protection of the sovereignty and security of the nation or the factoring of people’s comfort and happiness in all future plans, was not only reassuring, but also reinforced everyone’s deep faith in his exemplary vision and leadership.
