In what's
being claimed as an historic agreement, Israel and the United Arab Emirates
have reached a deal to normalise relations.
Donald
Trump made the announcement at the White House, saying Israel would now suspend
plans to further annex parts of the occupied West Bank.
However
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to contradict this, saying
there had been “no change” to Israel’s plans.
The UAE is
the first Arab Gulf state to agree to formal diplomatic ties with Israel.
