His Highness during his visit will go to the Great Hall of the People, where he will meet the Chinese president Xi Jinping.
It’s expected the two meeting will result in the formation of some new deals between China and the UAE. It’s hoped the two will sign at least 10 agreements in the areas of economy, oil and the environment.
The prince will then head to an economic summit, as well as various universities around China where he will greet Emirati students.
“China-UAE trade is expected to maintain the momentum of rapid growth throughout 2019 and beyond,” Ni Jian told the state news agency Wam.
During his stay also, Sheikh Mohammed visited the Great Wall of China, a world wonder. During this, a UAE folklore troupe preformed in celebration of the UAE ruler visiting.
