The Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Dr. Anwar Gargash, affirmed that the UAE-Israel peace treaty is a sovereign decision not directed at Iran.

Gargash said in a tweet via Twitter: “The UAE-Israel Peace Treaty is a sovereign decision that is not directed at Iran. We say it and repeat it. We do not accept interference in our decisions, just as we reject threats and threats, whether the source of bullying or anxiety.

He added, "Strategic decisions are transformative, and they have their impact and impact, and our decision is future, which strengthens our position and our competitiveness."

The day before yesterday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation summoned the Chargé d'Affairs at the Iranian embassy in Abu Dhabi to the ministry’s general office, in protest against the threats contained in the speech of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani regarding the UAE, which were also repeated by the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Revolutionary Guards and other officials.

The Ministry considered this rhetoric unacceptable and inciting, and it carries serious repercussions on security and stability in the Arab Gulf region.

Since the announcement of the peace treaty between the UAE and Israel, last Thursday, international reactions welcomed the step, which were described as "courageous", and renewed hopes for the resumption of negotiations between the Palestinian Authority and Israel after a deadlock that lasted six years.
