They emphasize the necessity for the rulers of the Emirates to participate in formulating the country&#8217;s foreign policy without Mohammed bin Zayed monopolizing the decision-making process, the report stated.<\/p>\n<p>According to previous reports, throughout his years of rule, Mohammed bin Zayed has transformed the Supreme Council of the Union into merely a formal body in the UAE, called upon only when needed, without real powers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7013\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7013\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7013 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed.jpg\" alt=\"Opposition to Mohammed bin Zayed's foreign policies\" width=\"1600\" height=\"840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-1536x806.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-150x79.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-450x236.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Mohammed-bin-Zayed-1200x630.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7013\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mohammed bin Zayed and Mohammed bin Rached<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Emirati President, who holds exclusive authority concentrated in his hands, has contented himself with holding sporadic bilateral meetings with the Dubai ruler to centralize the state&#8217;s authority and control its foreign policies, while completely ignoring other rulers of the Emirates.<\/p>\n<p>According to Emirati opponents, complete paralysis prevails in the Supreme Council of the Union in the UAE, which represents the highest constitutional authority in the country.
