Britain's Prince William arrived in Abu Dhabi on Monday to meet the President, Sheikh Mohamed, and convey his condolences over the death of Sheikh Khalifa.

The Duke of Cambridge is the latest prominent global figure to travel to the UAE capital to pay respects to Sheikh Khalifa and congratulate Sheikh Mohamed on his election as president.

He paid his sincere condolences, a statement from the British Embassy read.

"His Royal Highness also offered his warmest congratulations to His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on his appointment as President of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Abu Dhabi."

He was pictured with Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Presidential Affairs and other members of the ruling family at Mushrif Palace.

Sheikh Mohammed met a number of international leaders and officials at the palace on Monday.

Among those offering condolences were Roman Golovchenko, Prime Minister of Belarus, Ali Asadov, Prime Minister of Azerbaijan and Ahmed Ali Abdullah Saleh, son of Yemen's late former president Ali Abdullah Saleh.

Prince Charles earlier expressed his condolences in a call with Sheikh Mohamed, in which he also conveyed his best wishes over his election as president.

Queen Elizabeth II also sent a message of support to Sheikh Mohamed, sharing her sadness over Sheikh Khalifa's death.

“He will be long remembered by all who work for regional stability, understanding between nations and between faiths, and for the conservation cause,” she said in the message.

The death of Sheikh Khalifa was announced on Friday.

Monday marked the third day of mourning in the Emirates.

Dozens of leaders and senior officials have travelled to Abu Dhabi in recent days to pay tribute to Sheikh Khalifa, who had served as president since 2004.
