He said that the UAE will always lead the charge in promoting such principles and values, for which its residents can vouch.
Following the prayer, Sheikh Mansour exchanged greetings with worshippers on the occasion of Eid Al-Adha.
He then visited the tomb of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, and asked God to rest his soul in eternal peace.
