The finalization of the negotiations is a significant and historic milestone in the relationship between the countries and we will continue to assist the Israeli business community in establishing trade relations in the United Arab Emirates.

This milestone deal will build on the historic Abraham Accords and cement one of the world’s most important and promising emerging trading relationships in order to confront other Persian Gulf countries and especially neighboring Iran.

The agreement, which took over five months to negotiate, will reportedly see some 95% of products traded between Israel and the UAE – such as food, agriculture, cosmetic products, medical equipment and medicine – become customs free, immediately or gradually.

The UAE and Israel, which reportedly reached some $900 million in bilateral trade in 2021, normalized their relations back in 2020 as part of the US-brokered Abraham Accords.

Earlier this week Israel hosted a summit, inviting top diplomats from the USA as well as the UAE, Bahrain and Morocco, with which it has adjusted relations since 2020.

Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett also made a surprise visit to Egypt alongside the UAE’s crown prince to host trilateral talks and discuss shared military interests.

A Yiddler can smell and hear the shaking of a shekel from many many miles away; and knows how to part you from your purse.

What happened to the deal for F35s for Israel? All this happened due to the deal brokering by Trump. What is the deal? The poor UAE got trapped into signing what they call a “historic” deal of foolish.
