Netanyahu Holds Secret Meeting with UAE President Amid Iran Concerns
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conducted a six-hour secret visit to the United Arab Emirates on Sunday, meeting with UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Mossad chief David Barnea accompanied Netanyahu and managed the Israeli side of the arrangements for the meeting.
The primary focus of the talks was Israel's apprehension regarding a potential deal between the United States and Iran. Netanyahu aims to rally support from bin Zayed and forge a bloc of nations opposing such an agreement to exert pressure on Washington. This initiative also serves as preparation for potential independent Israeli action against Iran.
Discussions also encompassed strengthening ties between Israel and Gulf states, with the UAE acting as an intermediary. Additionally, economic matters and Israeli defense systems were on the agenda.
A source close to the Prime Minister described the meeting as "positive and necessary," noting that the UAE was as keen for the discussion as Israel. The source added that the Emirates view Israel as a reliable partner, underscoring the significance of deepening bilateral relations.
