For sure it will be the most independent investigation in the history of aviation

This is not an ICAO thing. Those are state regulations. In the U.K. for example it says:
But if complex, it can take longer there as well. I don't know how well the Accident Investigation Board is organized in the UAE. If they need a lot of external expertise, it takes much longer.
...to be made public in the shortest time possible (and, if possible, within 12 months of the date of the accident or serious incident)...

What goes up?
What European or US airline controls it's governing body?
There is not one example. That is because the governing bodies are independent and actually try to get to the bottom of an accident and not cover up any embarrassing details.

There is some time limit set up for the investigation.
I have been interviewed by one of the GCAA Chief Air Accident Investigator about the FZ accident in Rostov and he told me clearly that a preliminary report should be published after one month ( it has been done ) and a final report after one year....
So I Wonder why it would be different for the EK accident ?

None, but so doesn't EK. I said they are linked to the governing bodies. And trust me, they are. They have more of a say within CAA than you would think. This doesn't mean an accident investigation is not done properly. This is usually done by a separate unit within CAA or, preferably, by a completely independent body.
