In 2020, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) established full
diplomatic relations with Israel, making it the third Arab nation to establish
formal relations with Israel and the first new country to do so in 28 years by
signing the Abraham Accords. Former US President Donald Trump welcomed
breakthroughs at that time. The two countries also thanked Trump for advancing
their positions in Washington. At that time, the leader of Lebanon’s Hezbollah
movement condemned the deal between Israel and the UAE.
Over the years, the UAE also participated in peacekeeping
operations in the region, including Palestine and Israel.
Robert B.
Charles talks about strategic realities
Prolific Solutions wrote an article highlighting the facts about the
UAE’s relationship with other Middle East countries. Robert B. Charles, an
American lawyer and Republican political figure, talked about the strategic
relationships between UAE and other Arab countries. B. Charles served as
Assistant Secretary of State in the U.S. Department of State's Office of
International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs from 2003 to 2005 under
former Secretary of State Colin Powell. He also wrote the book “Narcotics and
Terrorism” in 2003.
B. Charles reportedly said in his article, “We do not have a
fresh generation – strong and dynamic political leaders – who see that the
Middle East is worth their full attention.” According to him, the relationship
between the UAE and US is important. However, there are few disagreements
between both countries. For example, the UAE remains opposed to the JCPOA
(Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) or the Iran nuclear deal. However, the
current US President Joe Biden wants to revive the deal. But the relationship
between these two countries can be vital for the Middle East region. These two
countries agree on important topics. For example, establishing peace in the
world. The UAE has been a vital US partner for political stability and economic
progress in the Middle East in recent years. These two countries often work
together to promote peace and security across the world. For example, in July
this year, US President Joe Biden and UAE’s President His Highness Sheikh
Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan met during an event in Saudi Arabia. They discussed
a range of regional and global challenges. They agreed to work together to
establish peace in the region.
It is also important to note that the UAE has always helped
other Middle East countries during difficult times. The UAE also helped
Afghanistan after the destructive earthquake injured many people in the country
in June. In 2020, the UAE sent medical supplies to Yemen, Ghana, and other
countries. Ethiopia and Eritrea also signed the historic peace accord in 2018
under the guidance of the UAE.
In his article, B. Charles also talked about the killing of
Ayman Al Zawahiri. He said that keeping terrorism at bay is important for all
countries. He also said that keeping the region free from drug trafficking is
also important. He believed that these points shaped the Middle East region
over the years.
