DUBAI
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has affirmed that the Emirates Group actively contributes to Dubai’s economic success and is central to its future growth and prosperity.
Sheikh Mohammed added that he is confident that the Group would continue its role as a world-leading organisation in shaping the future of global aviation, while also furthering the UAE’s vision and aspirations.
In his speech to the Emirates Group 2020/2021, Sheikh Mohammed said: “The COVID-19 pandemic represented one of the greatest challenges faced by humanity throughout history and caused an unprecedented state of confusion throughout the world and at all levels, but it was a cause of reaching a degree of unimaginable flexibility in dealing with the consequences.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has been one of the biggest challenges humanity has faced in its known history. Nevertheless, while it has caused unprecedented disruptions to our lives, it has also summoned extraordinary resilience across the world.
“The UAE’s fight against the pandemic has particularly been a story of strength, fortitude and endurance.
“We have been tested in our ability to deal with this unforeseen situation, but we have emerged out of it tougher. In many ways, the UAE has proved to be one of best-prepared countries to deal with this pandemic.
