President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan conveyed his deepest sympathies to his Nepalese counterpart, Ramchandra Paudel, expressing hope for a swift recovery for all those injured in the natural disasters.\n\nNot to be outdone, his two fellow Vice Presidents, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum - the Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai - and Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan - the Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, and Chairman of the Presidential Court - also sent their condolences to President Paudel. These messages were extended to the Prime Minister of Nepal, Balendra Shah, emphasizing the UAE's unwavering support during this difficult time.\n\nWhile focused on Nepal, UAE leaders have also extended their sympathies to other nations in times of crisis.
