UAE President Sheikh Mohamed has received more messages from world leaders on the third day of official mourning in the Emirates.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said he hoped to continue the dialogue on both bilateral and international matters.
"I am certain that your leadership will further strengthen the friendly Russian-Emirati relations and mutually beneficial co-operation," he said, according to state news agency Wam.
Prince Charles, heir to the British throne, and US Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin both spoke to Sheikh Mohamed by phone on Monday in separate calls to offer their condolences on the death of Sheikh Khalifa.
They also congratulated Sheikh Mohamed on his election as President and wished him luck and prosperity for the UAE.
The Brazilian government sent a congratulatory message to the UAE on the election of Sheikh Mohamed as the new president.
In a statement on its official twitter account, the government said that Brazil and the UAE have maintained a strategic partnership since 2019, which has resulted in substantial growth in bilateral trade and investment between the two nations.
President Sheikh Mohamed received a number of international leaders and officials at Mushrif Palace on Monday.
The visiting leaders and delegates offered congratulations to Sheikh Mohamed on his presidency and shared their condolences on the death of Sheikh Khalifa, who had guided the country's interests on the global stage since 2004.

The more serious side of specialty coffee
While the taste of beans and freshness of roast is paramount to the specialty coffee scene, so is sustainability and workers’ rights.
The bulk of genuine specialty coffee companies aim to improve on these elements in every stage of production via direct relationships with farmers. For instance, Mokha 1450 on Al Wasl Road strives to work predominantly with women-owned and -operated coffee organisations, including female farmers in the Sabree mountains of Yemen.
Because, as the boutique’s owner, Garfield Kerr, points out: “women represent over 90 per cent of the coffee value chain, but are woefully underrepresented in less than 10 per cent of ownership and management throughout the global coffee industry.”
One of the UAE’s largest suppliers of green (meaning not-yet-roasted) beans, Raw Coffee, is a founding member of the Partnership of Gender Equity, which aims to empower female coffee farmers and harvesters.
Also, globally, many companies have found the perfect way to recycle old coffee grounds: they create the perfect fertile soil in which to grow mushrooms.
Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
