Calling the team’s contributions “historic”, he added, “They have all our appreciation.”
The UAE has thousands of work teams in all sectors, whether economic, cultural, political, military or more, said the Dubai Ruler. “They are the secret of our country’s progress, because we have the best team in the region. They work in one spirit and refuse to see this country anywhere but in first rank.”
Echoing his sentiments, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, also took to social media to heap praise on the Mars Mission team.
