I am surprised. Maxima is usually very well and appropriately dressed but to wear such tight pants and short jacket is not respectful to the host.
It was merely a technical arrival at the Presidents Flight section of AD airport,nothing special except that it was acknowledged they arrived.That's all.They went to the Emirates Palace hotel immediatly after without seeing any of the Rulers family.So no,no offence.
