| [IsraelTimes] Israeli commitment not to enact its illusory sovereignty over settlements in exchange for normalization with Abu Dhabi only extends until 2024, Yusef al-Otaiba says. United Arab Emirates Ambassador to the United States Yusef al-Otaiba said Wednesday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government is engaged in a process of de facto annexation of the West Bank, and that it may be up to other countries weighing normalization with Israel to stop it. Appearing on a panel during a Washington event marking the three-year anniversary of the Abraham Accords, Otaiba was asked for Abu Dhabi’s perspective of the hardline Israeli government and its policies in the West Bank, which critics have referred to as "de facto annexation." |
