A US-Israeli delegation led by White House senior advisor Jared Kushner will visit the UAE today.

 

The delegation includes a number of representatives of various sectors in Israel on board the first Israeli commercial plane to land in the UAE.

 

US National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien and Meir Ben-Shabbat, National Security Adviser and head of the Israeli National Security Council are also part of it.

 

The delegation will meet with a number of representatives of UAE government agencies to



discuss ways to develop relations in related fields and promote joint action and opportunities for cooperation.

 

An official statement said, the visit follows the August 13 trilateral announcement and roadmap towards joint co-operation between the UAE and Israel.

 

Appearing alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel yesterday, Mr Kushner said, while this peace agreement was thought by many to be impossible, the stage is now set for even more.
