The Foreign Affairs Minister for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has told Sky News that a new peace accord between the UAE and Israel should promote peace between Israel and the Palestinians.
Dr Anwar Gargash said it should ‘defuse a soar’ hanging over the peace settlement between Israel and the Palestinians that has been in deadlock for decades.
UAE and Israel are to establish diplomatic ties in a deal halting the planned annexation of occupied land sought by the Palestinians.
US President Donald Trump announced the deal after successfully getting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed al Nahyan to agree normalising relations between their two countries.
