Trump Announces ’Israel’-UAE Normalization Deal
By Staff, Agencies
The Zionist occupation entity and the United Arab Emirates [UAE] have reached a deal that will lead to a full normalization of diplomatic relations between the two sides, in an agreement that US President Donald Trump apparently helped broker.
Under the agreement announced on Thursday, the Zionist entity has allegedly agreed to suspend applying its own rule to further areas in the occupied West Bank and the strategic Jordan Valley that ‘Israeli’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had pledged to annex, senior White House officials told Reuters.
Trump, in a tweet, called the agreement a "HUGE breakthrough," describing it as a "historic peace agreement between our two GREAT friends."
Relatively, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who spoke to reporters accompanying him on a trip to central European countries, said for his part that the agreement was an "enormous" step forward on the "right path."
Netanyahu also tweeted that the deal marked "a historic day."
Abu Dhabi's Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed said on Twitter on Thursday that an agreement had been reached on normalizing relations with ‘Israel’.
The deal, however, has elicited sharp negative reactions from various Palestinian groups as well as their supporters from across the world.
