Accepting gifted application from different store.

A friend of mine gifted me an application , his account is on UAE store while mine in US store.
However,   whenever I try to redeem the gift, it says its valid in UAE store only.
So what’s the solution.
And why we can’t gift ppl. In different stores. I have friends and family in different countries and ofcourse they are using the relevant store. So why Apple doesn’t make anything easy for the customer!!!
BTW…IOS 8 is the worst update for iphone.

All gifts (including gift cards) are country-specific - they will only be able to be redeemed in the same country as they person who sent it. Why you can't gift to another country I don't think that Apple have said, but it's possibly due to the rights-holders not allowing it.
The person who sent it can try resending it to somebody else who is in the UAE : Resend iTunes Gifts.
Or, and if they've been charged, they can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will refund/credit them : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
