Selfies with residents, mall stroll: 5 moments of UAE President being a people's leader
In yet another familiar display of accessibility and humility, UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan continues to demonstrate his closeness to residents, reinforcing his reputation as a leader deeply connected to his people. From casual strolls through malls to taking selfies with residents, Sheikh Mohamed —often hailed as the people's leader— consistently displays a down-to-earth attitude that never goes unnoticed. Known to work up to 18 hours a day, with annual leave reportedly never exceeding a single week, Sheikh Mohamed has always found time to interact with residents despite his busy schedule. 1. Taking photos in Hungary During his recent trip to Hungary, Sheikh Mohamed used a camera to take pictures of beautiful scenery. Like a normal tourist, he is seen capturing scenes from nature after being handed a camera. View this post on Instagram A post shared by UAE Royal Family ð��¦ð��° (@emiratesroyalfamily) 2. Selfies with residents In another obvious instance of humility, Sheikh Mohamed stopped was seen in a previous video walking towards his car and stepping in, when he notices something and stops. The UAE royal is then seen calling someone over as he steps back out of the car. The camera pans to two men who were earlier at the sideline. They are seen wearing big smiles as the President notices them. Both expats then take a selfie with the President. Sheikh Mohamed is also seen indulging in a short conversation with them and greeting them with a smile. 3. Mall stroll The UAE President was also captured in a video casually strolling through a bustling mall in Abu Dhabi. The clip showed the royal t descending an escalator accompanied by a notably small entourage. It also showed him leisurely walking past cafes and shops.

Heartwarming gesture An Emirati girl called Aisha Mohammed Mushait Al Mazrouei was among the scores of children who were part of an official reception hosted for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz back in 2019.
