Special Podcast - The Directors of the Atlantic Council, the Emirates Policy Center, and INSS discuss the Abraham Accords and their regional outcomes

In this program, we are pleased to inaugurate our strategic partnership with the Atlantic Council in Washington, DC and the Emirates Policy Center in Abu Dhabi. In the spirit of the Abraham Accords, this trilateral strategic partnership will build on the momentum from the normalization process, and serve as a hub for those in the global think tank community who seek to contribute to UAE-Israel relations.

The executive director of the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), Maj. Gen. (ret.) Amos Yadlin, the president and CEO of the Atlantic Council, Mr. Fred Kempe, and the president of the Emirates Policy Center, Dr. Ebtesam al-Ketbi, examine the regional outcomes of normalizing Israel’s relations with the UAE and Bahrain – and the continuation of this process. What are the responses in the Arab Gulf states and in Iran? How might this momentum of peacemaking affect U.S. policy in the Middle East, after the presidential elections? What regional opportunities for Israel do these agreements create? How could the Abraham Accords contribute to cooperation on common security concerns? Might the current normalization process ultimately lead the return of Israel and the Palestinians to the negotiating table?
