The death of Sheikh Zayed

The death of the president of the United Arab Emirates was announced on Tuesday. Sheikh Zayed, Emir of Abu Dhabi, has chaired the Federation since its creation in 1971.

We did not know his age, he probably did not know him either. In any case, he was over eighty. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahayan, Emir of Abu Dhabi since 1966, who presided over the country with the highest per capita income on the planet, went hungry in his youth, which he spent mainly in the oasis from Al Ain where we ate dates.

In the 1940s and 1950s, oil money was not yet flowing. And when in the sixties, the royalties begin to fall, they do not benefit anyone: the stinginess of the emir of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Shahbout, is legendary. It is said that he himself watched in his apartments the treasure chest of the emirate. Anyway, this greed that keeps the country in backwardness, irritates the family council that eventually filed in 1966. His brother Zayed, whose judgment skills are popular with Bedouins among whom he lived twenty years, replaces it.

Zayed, who has not received an education, is illiterate, but surely not a fool. He quickly shows real political qualities. When the British withdrew from the Gulf in 1971 and give independence to the emirates of the former Pirate Coast, a dull rivalry opposes Dubai in particular to Abu Dhabi. At the end of a delicate sharing, the capital of the United Arab Emirates that have just emerged is established in Abu Dhabi and Sheikh Zayed is, for five years, the first president of the brand new federation.

In the meantime, oil revenues are changing the face of emirates. Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi are embarking on a debacle of major infrastructure projects, developed by an army of mainly Asian immigrants. Soon, UAE citizens become ultra-minority at home, emigrants representing up to 85% of the population.

The struggle for influence between Dubai and Abu Dhabi results in the latter's political victory: Abu Dhabi has 100 years of oil reserves while those in Dubai are running out quickly. Whatever. While Dubai abandons - to a certain extent - politics in Abu Dhabi and goes into business, Sheikh Zayed can apply his political sense to diplomacy.

The "Fatimid clan"

He, the ignored Bedouin, quickly became a head of state listened to by other Arabs, but also by Europeans. Resolutely close to the Americans, he is not afraid to distinguish himself from them by maintaining links with Iran and Iraq at a time when Washington advocates the "double-containment" of these "rogue states"; The UAE is supporting the Palestinian cause without stumbling, whatever is said in Washington. On the oil front, Abu Dhabi generally sticks to Saudi policy aimed at keeping oil cheap. But Zayed is not the last to apply the embargo after the October 1973 war and above all, to stand out from Saudi politics in many areas.

In particular religious tolerance. A pious Muslim, Zayed also instituted the protection of Christians, Sikhs and Hindus living in his country when the inter-communal riots of 1992 broke out after the destruction of the Ayodhya mosque in India by Hindu extremists.

On the domestic front, Zayed leaves a country politically stable, particularly because of the wealth of nationals, where the issue of democratization does not pose as acutely as in the neighboring emirates, less richly endowed. But if the designated successor remains his son Khalifa, the latter is now surrounded by his half-brothers from the favorite wife of the late Emir Sheikha Fatima (the "Fatimid clan") who control the key positions of the Defense ( Chief of Staff), Foreign Affairs, and Information.
