Official congratulations from UAE leadership

President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan has sent a message of congratulations to President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador on the occasion of his country’s Independence Day.

Similar messages were dispatched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, and His Highness Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Presidential Court.

Context and customary diplomacy

The messages were conveyed on 15 September, the date on which El Salvador marks its national independence. Such exchanges form part of regular diplomatic courtesies between heads of state, reaffirming formal ties and mutual respect between countries.

While the WAM release does not detail the contents of the messages beyond their congratulatory nature, the dispatch of official greetings from the UAE presidency and two senior federal figures underscores the normal etiquette of interstate relations carried out at the highest level.

The statement was published by the Emirates News Agency (WAM) from Abu Dhabi, reflecting the federal practice of issuing notifications when the President or other principal state officials send formal communications to foreign leaders.
