The Atlantic Council held a public event marking the one-year anniversary of the signing of the Abraham Accords between Israel and regional partners.
This event included two panels featuring think tank analysts from Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and officials from across the region, as part of the Atlantic Council’s trilateral partnership with the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv and the Emirates Policy Center in Abu Dhabi.
