WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States will help foster Israel’s growing ties with Bahrain, Morocco and the United Arab Emirates as well as Sudan and Kosovo while encouraging other countries to normalise ties with Israel, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Friday.
Speaking at an event marking the first anniversary of Abraham Accords, U.S.-brokered agreements which have ushered in public rapprochements between Israel and several Arab states, Blinken also said Washington would work to deepen Israel’s long-standing relationship with Egypt and Jordan.
