Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu met in Yerushalayim with U.S. National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien and Senior Advisor to the President Jared Kushner.
Netanyahu said, “We’re all thrilled by the swift pace of normalization between Israel and the UAE. Yesterday, the Emirates officially abolished the anachronistic boycott of the Jewish state. This opens the door for what I can only call unbridled trade, tourism, investments, exchanges between the Middle East’s two most advanced economies.”
Netanyahu added, “For far too long, the Palestinians have had a veto on peace, not only between the Palestinians and Israel, but between Israel and the broader Arab world….They planned to sue Britain for the Balfour Declaration. So if we have to wait for the Palestinians, we would have to wait forever. Well, no longer. Two years ago, I visited Oman. One year ago, I visited Chad. Half a year ago, I met with the leader of Sudan….There are many more unpublicized meetings with Arab and Muslim leaders who recognize that their true interests are to normalize relations with the State of Israel.”
