The world celebrates International Women's Day, which is an opportunity to reflect on progress and pay tribute to the achievements of Emirati women, and the military women in particular, thanks to the interest of the wise leadership, which laid the groundwork for success, progress and active participation in the renaissance of the nation alongside with her brothers, men .

The daughter of our homeland will be as His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, may God protect him, wanted her to be when His Highness said: “Nothing would make me happy more than seeing Emirati women take their role in society and gain their rightful place .. Nothing should stand in the way of her progress march .. Women have the right, like men, to occupy the highest positions in proportion to their capabilities and qualifications.”

As we celebrate Women's Day, I am pleased to first celebrate the Mother of the Emirates, Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, President of the General Women's Union, Supreme Chair of the Family Development Foundation, President of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood, may God bless her with health and wellness .. We celebrate her great role in the march of our country and the world .. Her Highness is a high example for Emirati women in giving and achievement.
