Sheikh Mohammed also praised the closing speech by Sheikh Saif bin Zayed, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior.

"He [Sheikh Said] played a great role behind the scenes in supporting the success of the Expo and supporting the success of the summit," said Sheikh Mohammed on Wednesday on social media.

"The summit will move to new heights next year."
