UAE and Israel can build on a year of normality | Arab News
With the anniversary of the Abraham Accords fast approaching, the visit of Israel’s foreign minister Yair Lapid to the UAE this month was both timely and symbolic of the rapid pace at which relations between the two countries are developing.
It was the first official visit to the country by an Israeli minister, and to demonstrate the centrality of these relations to Israel’s foreign policy strategy, one of the first visits abroad by the new foreign minister. Lapid also inaugurated Israel’s embassy in Abu Dhabi and its consulate in Dubai, which further epitomises how seamlessly the ties between the two countries are evolving. The red-carpet welcome, both literally and figuratively, had all the hallmarks of two countries who see this budding relationship mutually benefiting their national interests, and enhancing their positions on the international stage.
