President Sheikh Mohamed welcomed Guinea-Bissau's President Umaro Sissoco Embalo in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.
The two leaders discussed co-operation, particularly in the areas of development, economy, trade and investment, state news agency Wam reported.
During their meeting at Qasr Al Shati in Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Mohamed and Mr Embalo discussed issues of mutual interest, with both sides reaffirming their commitment to strengthening relations between the UAE and Guinea-Bissau.
The Order of Zayed, the UAE’s highest decoration awarded to heads of state, was presented to Mr Embalo by Sheikh Mohamed, in recognition of his efforts to enhance bilateral relations.
Mr Embalo, in turn, presented Sheikh Mohamed with the Amilcar Cabral Medal, the highest honour granted by Guinea-Bissau, in appreciation of his role in strengthening ties between the two countries.

Key recommendations
- Fewer criminals put behind bars and more to serve sentences in the community, with short sentences scrapped and many inmates released earlier.
- Greater use of curfews and exclusion zones to deliver tougher supervision than ever on criminals.
- Explore wider powers for judges to punish offenders by blocking them from attending football matches, banning them from driving or travelling abroad through an expansion of ‘ancillary orders’.
- More Intensive Supervision Courts to tackle the root causes of crime such as alcohol and drug abuse – forcing repeat offenders to take part in tough treatment programmes or face prison.
