Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Presidential Court, was among the delegation with Sheikh Mohamed.
Also present were Sheikh Sabah Al Khalid Al Sabah, Crown Prince of Kuwait, and Sheikh Ahmad Abdullah Al Sabah, Prime Minister of Kuwait.
Ties between the two countries are close. Last year, Sheikh Meshal highlighted the strength of bilateral relations with the UAE by affirming a commitment to expand them across various sectors.
