ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Israel and the United Arab Emirates struck a major diplomatic agreement on Thursday. Israel will suspend plans to annex disputed West Bank territory as part of a deal to improve relations with the United Arab Emirates. In a surprise statement from the White House, President Trump said that Israel and the UAE will sign bilateral agreements on investment, tourism, security, technology, energy and other areas while moving to allow direct flights between their countries and to set up reciprocal embassies in each other’s nations. If fulfilled, the agreement would make the UAE the third Arab country to establish normal diplomatic relations with Israel after Egypt, which signed a landmark peace agreement in 1979, and Jordan, which signed a treaty in 1994. It could reorder the long stalemate in the region between Israel and its neighbors, potentially leading other Arab nations to follow suit while taking Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s explosive annexation plan off the table, at least for the moment. Trump summoned reporters to the Oval Office to hail the agreement, which he said was sealed during a telephone call with Netanyahu and Mohammed bin Zayed, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi and de facto ruler of the UAE. He was surrounded by leaders of Israel and the UAE, and a large delegation of aides and officials, including Jared Kushner, his son-in-law and senior adviser, who has been spearheading Middle East peace efforts for more than 3 years.
