UAE Armed Forces are one of the best in the world

There is no doubt that only the visionary and patriotic leadership of the country can build a highly trained and influential Armed Forces. The United Arab Emirates Armed Forces are brave and highly professional. Only a powerful and strong army with full support of their leadership can assure security and sovereignty of the state (“Emiratis would not have enjoyed security and stability without Armed Forces, says Sheikh Mohammed,” May 5, Gulf Today website).

According to the report, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, has emphasised the significance of the decision to unify the UAE Armed Forces, stating that it is of equal importance to the Founding Fathers’ decision to establish the Union.

In his speech to “Nation Shield”, the UAE’s military journal, on the occasion of the 47th Armed Forces Unification Day, Sheikh Mohammed underscored that the decision to unify the Armed Forces fostered and enhanced the Union’s pillars, highlighting that “the Union would not have advanced, developed and maintained its sovereignty without defending the country’s borders.”

The United Arab Emirates armed forces are one of the best armed forces in the world. The way the United Arab Emirates leadership and its people care, love and respect their armed forces is highly laudable. Long Live UAE Armed Forces, Long Live United Arab Emirates.
