Donald Trump gets customary Al-Ayyala welcome in UAE

USA President Donald Trump is on his UAE visit. He was given a grand customary welcome at the Presidential palace, Qasr Al Watan. Women clad in the white gowns synonymous with the UAE dress stood on each side to give him the traditional Al-Ayyala welcome. It is a hair-flipping performance held usually in weddings and festive celebrations in the United Arab Emirates and Oman.

As a part of the ceremonial welcome, Trump was welcomed by women dancers who gave a hair-flipping performance on either side of the passage. It was accompanied by traditional drums and chants.

Trump walks in without any reaction but exchanging glances on each side of the path. The video has racked in 6.9 million views after being posted online. The video was posted by White House aide Margo Martin.
