In representation of the close ties between UAE and Bahrain, a member of the Bahraini royal family has posted on social media a set of pictures of the Kind of Bahrain with Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid and Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed.

Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad Al-Khalifa, commander of the Royal Guard of Bahrain, published the pictures of the Vice President and Ruler of Dubai and Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces with the caption “may God protect you”.

While the date of when the pictures were taken was not mentioned, it appeared that it was an informal meeting between the men.
