President Sheikh Mohamed spoke to King Charles III by telephone on Saturday to congratulate him on his accession to the British throne
Sheikh Mohamed wished him success in performing his duties as king, following in the footsteps of his mother Queen Elizabeth II.
He expressed his sincere wishes of continued wellness and happiness to the king, and for the further development and prosperity for the UK and its people.
King Charles thanked Sheikh Mohamed for his sincere feelings towards his country and people.
Earlier on Saturday, Sheikh Mohamed spoke to UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, who became the 15th prime minister of the queen's 70-year reign days before the monarch's death.

He wished Ms Truss success in her appointment and expressed his wishes of continued progress and prosperity for the UK and its people.
He spoke about the deep-rooted historical relations between the UAE and Britain, reaffirming his keenness to develop co-operation for the benefit of the two countries and to support regional and global peace and security.
The UAE enjoyed a warm relationship with Queen Elizabeth, a warmth reflected in its leaders' tributes upon her death on September 8.
President Sheikh Mohamed said on Twitter: “I extend my sincere condolences to the family of Queen Elizabeth II and the people of the UK.
“Her Majesty was a close friend of the UAE and a beloved and respected leader whose long reign was characterised by dignity, compassion and a tireless commitment to serving her country.”
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, who knew the queen for many years, said: “We join the world in mourning the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, a global icon who represented the finest qualities of her nation and people.
“Her incredible lifetime of service and duty to the United Kingdom is unparalleled in our modern world.”

What is a Ponzi scheme?
A fraudulent investment operation where the scammer provides fake reports and generates returns for old investors through money paid by new investors, rather than through ligitimate business activities.
TOUCH RULES
Touch is derived from rugby league. Teams consist of up to 14 players with a maximum of six on the field at any time.
Teams can make as many substitutions as they want during the 40 minute matches.
Similar to rugby league, the attacking team has six attempts - or touches - before possession changes over.
A touch is any contact between the player with the ball and a defender, and must be with minimum force.
After a touch the player performs a “roll-ball” - similar to the play-the-ball in league - stepping over or rolling the ball between the feet.
At the roll-ball, the defenders have to retreat a minimum of five metres.
A touchdown is scored when an attacking player places the ball on or over the score-line.

Mia Man’s tips for fermentation
- Start with a simple recipe such as yogurt or sauerkraut
- Keep your hands and kitchen tools clean. Sanitize knives, cutting boards, tongs and storage jars with boiling water before you start.
- Mold is bad: the colour pink is a sign of mold. If yogurt turns pink as it ferments, you need to discard it and start again. For kraut, if you remove the top leaves and see any sign of mold, you should discard the batch.
- Always use clean, closed, airtight lids and containers such as mason jars when fermenting yogurt and kraut. Keep the lid closed to prevent insects and contaminants from getting in.
