The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh welcomed the President of the United Arab Emirates , His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, at the beginning of his State Visit to the United Kingdom. The welcome was followed by a State Luncheon at Windsor Castle.

This state visit's a bummer: no state banquet, only a state luncheon. That means no tiaras. Le sigh.
