The United Arab Emirates on Wednesday (14th) became the first Gulf state to open an embassy in Israel, as its envoy hailed the trade and investment opportunities that closer ties would bring at a flag-raising ceremony also attended by Israel’s president.
The new mission is located in Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Building.
Sudan and Morocco have since also moved to establish ties with Israel.
The ceremony was attended by new Israeli President Isaac Herzog. UAE Ambassador Mohammad Mahmoud Al Khajah officially presented his credentials at the beginning of March.
