Post-Abraham Accords UAE-Israel Ties
Since the signing of the Abraham Accords in 2020, the relationship between the UAE and Israel has been one of the most important and controversial developments in the Middle East.
While some have lauded the move as a step towards peace in the region, others have criticized it as an abandonment of the Palestinian cause and a betrayal of Arab as well as Muslim solidarity.
Some have also criticized the Abraham Accords for providing legitimacy to Israel’s discriminatory policies towards its Arab citizens and its continued occupation of Palestinian territories.
