there was a huge container ship that came in from the emirates come ok -- emirates, ok. these were the first container ships coming from the free-trade area in dubai. they had washing machines. that is bringing down the price, the cost-of-living for citizens of israel right away. its trade, ok. israelis could never fly east. we had to go around the red sea, around the arabian peninsula. it would take us hours to get anywhere, let alone to get into the arabian peninsula, because we did not have any relations that. now, people are planning tourism offices from israel, all the tourism agents flocking to abu dhabi and dubai and bahrain. they are now just loaded with requests from israelis. believe it or not, the other way 's and emirati'i s want to come. each of us has what it has to offer the other. it changes the lives of people. exactly as you said, mr. president, we are not engaging in bloodshed, antagonism. we are engaging in cooperation for the present and future. it is not a distant vision. it is not a dream. we are actually seeing the fruits of peace right now in the

been talking about since the 1st agreement was signed or it was an announced with the united arab emirates back in august saying that essentially it was peace for peace as opposed to peace for land or any kind of concession given to the palestinians and that's something that the palestinian president mahmoud abbas also emphasized in a statement saying that nobody should speak on behalf of the palestinians that the only way to a comprehensive and just peace was through the end of the occupation and through an independent state with east jerusalem as its capital as for the messaging coming from netanyahu after this latest announcement he's talking about the symbolism of this saying that. referring to the pan arab agreement in a commitment in 1067 in khartoum to the 3 knows no to peace with israel no to negotiation of this with israel there was a recognition of israel that they had been replaced by the 3 yeses to those things and he's also trying to do a sales job to his own domestic constituency saying that these agreements will make practical beneficial changes to their lives that the kind

but unlike earlier deals with the united arab emirates and behind in this agreement raises as many questions as it answers why sudan can this fragile transitional government really approve such a sweeping policy change and who will ratify it since sudan currently has no parliament there's a lot going on here and we're going to explore the benefits and risks for all 3 countries involved we'll bring in our guests in a moment but 1st how tickell hand in washington and what morgan and how to him tell us how the accord looks from those capitals. for u.s. president donald trump the deal between sudan and israel is important because the election it's not necessarily that he wanted a foreign policy achievement that he could tout to the crowds foreign policy is barely a factor in this year's presidential election and it's not necessarily to try and get the support of jewish americans because polls show the vast majority of jewish american voters tend to vote democratic the president made clear in his own language what he's doing is trying to shore up his support with christian evangelicals because th

member states saudi arabia and the united arab emirates along with egypt accused qatar of supporting what they described as terrorism and imposed a land air and sea blockade it was him who intervened the kuwaiti amir attempted to broker a settlement urged for more dialogue between the gulf rivals and pushed for reforms to prevent future disputes. because now the question is what to demand that we have discussed the situation in the country for most known for trade dispute between our brothers in the gulf region and our efforts to contain it chips obama was born in kuwait city in 1929 the son of a comma there job who was a mirror from 1904 to 1950 for 4 decades he held the post a foreign minister. in that time the oil rich country experienced huge economic growth but was also vulnerable to regional struggles although kuwait had supported the iraqi government during the nearly decade long war with iran in the 1980 s. . then president saddam hussein ordered his forces to invade kuwait in 1900. more than $1000.00 civilians were killed and hundreds went missing during the 7 months iraqi o

israel has approved the building of subtle homes since the normalization deal with the united arab emirates and bahrain the settlements are considered illegal under international law by. al-jazeera as leader abraham is in the occupied west bank tell us more about. this approval to build these homes and how palestinians of reacted. well citizens of long that is building illegal israeli settlements on land that palestinians want to be their futures state is a crime under international law and they were actually trying to get the international criminal court to prosecute israel because this is considered an end a war crime under international law and for palestinians they see the current israeli government is a bold and stronger lesions between the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and the current u.s. president bill and will trump the issue of supplements house been the reason why there has been a rift between the previous u.s. administrator and under obama and the israeli government and that then yeah and we've even seen a u.s. administration abstained from vetoing. draft resolution

the white house few hours ago the 3rd such deal in just 2 months remember previous the united arab emirates and behind agreed to normalize their ties with israel earlier this week a deal was also struck to remove sudan from the list of state sponsors of terrorism . and they wanted to do a deal and that was it particularly nice because they essentially bettered war with israel for. a long time i don't know if it was fighting i don't know that but probably there's been a little bit but certainly it's been for many years you've been officially at war with sudan and now it's not only to do it but it's peace so that's official and that's you know we have at least 5 that want to come in for correspondents to take us through this story here they all hit morgan in khartoum sudan harry force in west jerusalem in israel made abraham is in ramallah in the occupied west bank with starting in washington where the announcement was made not long ago alan fischer as our correspondent at the white house not a massive surprise because we had heard the idea of more arab nations joining this list of countries

arsenal beat sheffield united 2—1 at the emirates.o sako, then nicolas pepe here getting arsenal beat sheffield united 2—1 at the emirates. the first goal from bukayo sako, then nicolas pepe here getting the second for the gunners. blades manager chris wilder far from happy david luiz remained on the pitch after appearing to pull back ollie burke in the first half i've seen it, system managers have seen it, all of our substance in it. poet is unsure, has he. number and how big of politics, does it go on if you pull his shirt or is it a tug or is it not to talk. is it minimal or is it not to talk. is it minimal or ripping his shirt off the back? totte n ha m or ripping his shirt off the back? tottenham last year or as a five yards off—site? pulled his shirt? so sheffield united are without a point this season and so are fulham, who suffered their fourth straight premier league defeat after losing at wolverhampton wanderers. pedro neto got on the scoresheet at molineux, which moves wolves up to 12th in the table. obviously, improvements

donald trump continued his talks with various other nations and managed to convince the united arab emirates and also bahrain to say no on to the deal of recognizing israel though obviously the big prize would be . there are talks going on about that donald trump is on occasions perhaps. over. extended himself by suggesting that certain countries were about to join he suggested that with kuwait after a visit here by the crown prince for the current prince and the kuwaiti embassy immediately saying no no we're not at that point yet but there's no doubt that this is seen as a success by donald trump and his administration that it is changing the picture on the ground in the middle east and perhaps could lead to an even bigger success at some point don't come as well believes that he should have been perhaps more closely considered for the nobel peace prize is perhaps the best way to put it he said we talked about it a lot on the campaign trail after he was nominated for his work in the middle east but of course that's not how the academy saw it and he didn't get that award ok allan just so you

that this changes the reality on the ground he already got a deal signed between the united arab emirates and bahrain to recognize israel remember the abraham accords were signed here at the white house just in september just over a month ago and he believes that there are 5 other countries who are ready to sign up to this deal believing that if he does that then 1st of all it will help american security it will stop expensive and bloody for morris and of course it will help. up his reelection effort no many people are going to care of sudan is taken off the list of countries that are state sponsors of terrorism but what he can see is that many administrations try to get compensation for the victims of terrorism here the field but he has managed to secure $335000000.00 that is something that he can take on to the campaign trail for the last 11 days before november the 3rd and of course he'll push the fact that he has tried to bring peace to the middle east when many others including the obama biden ministration hadfield . all right thank you very much will the latest from the white house

states announced so-called normalization deals between israel and 2 gulf countries the united arab emirates and buffer rain and then with sudan. the sticking point for decades had always been the occupation of palestine and the gulf states had always demanded their return to pre-one 967 borders as a condition for any form of official recognition. so what's changed. why do these 3 countries appear to have given up on the palestinian issue and got into bed with their supposed long term adversary. some see it as an attempt to curb 2 of the region's leading powers iran and turkey . while others believe that israel and the u.s. have other long term pain. but for the past 13 years israel has also failed to achieve another of its prime objectives subduing the elected hamas government of gaza despite a series of violent confrontations going back over 10 years. and this might be another reason why israel has now chosen to develop wider political alliances in a bid finally to overcome a mass. in this film teller elma's hall of al-jazeera arabic channel explores some of the reasons behind the shifting
