Respects to departed soul, Hon’ble President of United Arab Emirates His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.  He was the President of UAE, the emir of Abu Dhabi and the supreme commander of the United Arab Emirates Armed Forces between 2004 and 2022. He was also the chairman of the Supreme Petroleum Council from the late 1980s.

As the crown prince, Khalifa carried out some aspects of the presidency in a de facto capacity from the late 1990s when his father Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan faced health problems. He succeeded his father as the emir of Abu Dhabi on 2 November 2004 and the presidency of the United Arab Emirates the following day.

Whole world used to think of him while thinking of the world’s tallest structure Burj Khalifa, Dubai named after him. 

Surely the country and the world lost a great leader in him 🌷🙏🌷
