Israeli President, Reuven Rivlin, on Monday, extended an official invitation to the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Mohamed bin Zayed, to Jerusalem in a letter sent on Monday.
“I am full of hope that the agreement being drawn up between our countries will help build and strengthen the trust between us and the nations of the region,” Rivlin wrote. “Trust will promote understanding between all of us, will march our region forward and will bring economic welfare and provide prosperity and stability to residents of the Middle East.”
Israel and the UAE reached a historic deal Thursday that will restore diplomatic ties between them.
The Emirates became the third Arab country to recognize Israel after Jordan and Egypt.
While the deal has been welcomed by some nations, it has sparked tremendous outrage in most Muslim countries.
