our deal between israel and the united arab emirates in the cold it's being touted as a step towards peace in the middle east. uae follows egypt and jordan with normalized ties with israel. international reaction to the accord which may reshape relations from palestine to iran has been mostly positive though that's still. a big question mark of israeli annexation of palestinian land. what this in state run industrial plants join tens of thousands of people on the fifth day of

protests against belarussian president alexander lukashenko. inspite of a violent crackdown that has prompted the west to consider new sanctions. thank you for us israel and the united arab emirates announcnced this thursday they will. diplomatic ties and forge a bold new relationship a move that will reshape pool could reshape the order of middle eaeast politics from the palestinian issue to iran. under the accord w which the u. s. help to broker israel has agreed to suspend its planned annexation of areas of the occupied west bank the agreement also firms up opposition to iran. which the uae israel and the united states. as the main threat the conflict riven middle east that's your first from israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu. this is the greatest advancements toward peace between israel and the arab world. in the last twenty six years and it marks the third formal peace between israel and an arab nation together with

tools transform the region unfortunately been better future for people. this is a future of peace the future of security. and the future of prosperity. i've always believed that we could establish peace with the arab world. and i've been working towards a lofty goal for decades. no sooner the words pronounce the question mark rose over the issue of palestinian territory there is macklin in jerurusalem has been following the story. it's interesting because it is a treatment regimen. . and for israel and the united arab emirateses and he was very specific case that diplomatic ties will be normalized unit will be invevested iss here and there will be direct flights from dubai to tel aviv- they'll be investments. and so does investment in israel including in this right to find a covered nineteen backseaeat so he was talking or laptop but in reality what we're seeing is a relationship that was under the

table i i'm goingng for a while actually i have heard a lot of people respond. in nineteen the dubai airport a lot of israeli businessmen doing business in dubai at the moment and the united arab e emirates it's generally you know w they h havo have a front company somewhere else but they are doing business security business scientific business economic so each each already ongoing and i guesss the speaks. coming out from under the- yeah. tonight he's it's like a also threeee when the mistresss the one. that's what we see now. it's interesting when to look at it.. now i undersrstand about at yaho war bacack. this idea of. the annexation- of palestinian territory- during his press conferenence tell us morore abo. it was interesting because he didn't mention i told when h he stararted it wawas only on the question from journalists that he even referred to accessn.n. inin washingngton and- in dubaie

are hearing this as a quidid pro quo. and delay in d dubai we are hearining that t this i is how s goingg to be in return for the suspension- w we- had this nonormalization of relations. bt what we heard fromm prime minister netananyahu tonight was no h he hasn't given upp on the idea. of annexing p parts of the west bank he remains c committed to it this is onlyy a temporary poles h he repeated those words more thann oncnce it's a a tempy poless at the request off donald trump. oththerwise he rememains commmmitted to anan exception so that's quite a different position in washington divide jerusalem. on the issue of an exception. heris michael course that in jerusalem. so the uae once egypt and joy. and relations with israel the uae foreign minister is on what god gosh. very clear thahat israel will come. the three way phone call with the united states to stopping annnnexation suspendndg

itit hehe and at the same t time will be able to also announce ththat we will begin w what whai would call a normal relationship w with israel in various various areas. and so we see that the clear difference- in views on palestinian territory between the uae and israel even as this historic deal is being touted and announced negotiated a course with the help and guidance of the united states donald trump refers to benjamin netanyahu as a personal friend us long had a strategic relationship with the iraqis. that's enough from trump. thank you very much is very this is a big. event and i want to just congratulate all of the people standing behind me because they have done an incredible job this is something that hasn't been done. in more than twenty five years. just a few moments ago i was in a very special call with two friends prime

minister benjamin netanyahu of israel and crown prince mohammed bin zaid of united arab emirates where they agreed to finalize a historical peace agreement. everybody said this would be impossible donald trump us presidedent to his- and i'm spent reaction to o the so cacalled.. wilson coursese motin chchemical just not a as a vehicle for us. earlier this afternoon after the announcement was made to jared kushner and the a special adviser to donald trump as well as the national security adviser robert o'brien both came to- the year press briefing roooom at the white house to speak about the details of at this announcement and they were asked the question- especially about awards- benjamin and netanyahu had said about this being it temporarily hold. in annexations and both men a kind of stayed very vague about what that exactly meant but they

said they had confidence in israel that israel had always been a great partner to the united states and that they felt that. israel would follow at thehe endnd of the year arguments and what had been a put into that deal and that they trusted to isisrael n n of course and this is really is the point at the uae also and making it a little bit more meager because it in a tweet earlier at some day and there was. a lot of focus on that holding of annexation ends at the uae is seem to say that this was not a done deaeal- but more of a road map to cooperation with israel so that also- puts a little bit of the vagueness into and this will be open for at the ameriricans for donald trump the idea. is to make this big announcement to announce a historic delete all repeated that those two words and many in many times robert o'brien even said during that

press briefing that hee thought that a bias securing this deal at donald trump was not only. as a great deal maker would be known as a in history as a great place and major and that he won't be surprised if. donald trump was. for at the noble peace prize see how a big of a deal it is a for the and- of are to a few monthths away fromom the- election. k. on goi. donna. us president d donald trump dr farris thank you from jonas in france twenty four- iran it's just coming to see us- iran officially says- the uae israel deal will not secure regional peace. can i ask you to statart with that please. absolutely i mean this was. prprobably the most exexcted statement. which will come from- iran from hezbollah from

the usuaual suspects and the list.. of the forces that are radical and do not wanant to see any dealal. b before they get tr own deal- but- definitely. i'm yours of both israel and the u. n. e. have already factorered i. iran and reaction and in my estimamate. because they found t that iran is at its lowest influence now because of the maximum. campaign of pressure by the united states it wowould be the opporortune moment. for i would nott be until i leave to- create that that deal. is this an axis stand against iran or is it a step towards peace. or e the two o things into dependent. they are entered it. probably in the big picture is the formation of the regional bloc- we know that day facto-- i would not be or you. bahrain saudi arabia egypt. and others have formed a blocc and by y the way president trump went in.

may of twenty seventeen to riyadh and address. is greenen coalition that would be all the arab and muslim countries a lot is thehe majority of them. and the project of creating those channels of that piece to defuse tensions between some arab countries and israel that projoject was supposesed to stat in twenty seventeen after. nearly odd- summit unfortununately for the trump administration knows so much pressure on the inside for other reasons. it was delayedd and i'm sure that. the president wanted to see it happen before the election sure. back to the app. you mentioned in your on has ball condemning. what has been said of the sea for. the lebanese side moving down to the strip hamas has that come out now set the day of think this is treason ought not gonna go on. and a similar voice come from ramallah as well if the office of my up. and the issue. of is. talking a

the support about the future of palestinian territory but the palestinians not invited to take part even talk about it. is thihis anotherer week's budgeting. another fault line in this cold. it a distinct that share import n not just he. by in the world of reality. we hahave to distinguguish betweene rigid ideological strategic rerection off any peace d deal. bebecause of historical ideological ground that would be iran. that would b be has ben a lot that would be hamas. and probably o on the other side on the on your article sign gonna happen isis al qaeda and all this. is the honda a accord and calllled block is not to accept. these processes box. youu have a criticism rejectition c coming m legitimate site which is the paleststinian authority as you have just mentioned. obviously this is the first statement because as you just mentioned also they wowould not the negotiations and they were not the negotiations because this is not. yet aboutut the palestinian discussions so president trump in my view proceeded to bring first bringng

togegether. he you at and israel with the help of the b backgroud of egypt and jordan.n. once thoe two countries will come together and they're going to bring the best stands into a triangle or and maybe. you don't science bececause shehe's with united states this i is. early in the prossss is just and nonow seeining the intention my view. and all. though at stage the issue of palestinian land of annexation by is all that's already been mentioned and it's already division. in how this is beieing seen the uk talked about it being suspended benjamin netanyahu in a- calm. lakeke walked back but what. the push on that. is this s good to be so o could the. i mean you cn

imagine that. the whole was going forward with this- seizure of land and adding to israel. as a whole segment of his base that is you know in support of this now in order for him to change direction you cannot change it in the beginning of the process. you gotta show me israeli public opinion and mostly israeli middle class which is. looking forward foror moree opening and markets mean in other terms the uae would provide the opening in the markets and it's really up to prime minister netetyahu convinced. most israelis t that you know less freezes on the lands let's look what we're going to get from the arab world and then we'll make a final decision. thank you both sidedes have made decisionons nw is the navigation andnd that manager of the decisions to get them to where. they want to. the fires thank you much indeed the new st francis if we'll be able appreciate time sir thank you. thank you. next crowds protesters in belarus the streets and thousands of workers rallied outside industrial plants to denounce a
