A senior United Arab Emirates diplomatic official warned that if Israel were to pursue official annexation of Judea and Samaria, the Gulf kingdom would withdraw from the historic Abraham Accords peace agreements.

“Annexation would be a red line for my government, and that means there can be no lasting peace. It would foreclose the idea of regional integration and be the death knell of the two-state solution,” Lana Nusseibeh, assistant minister for political affairs and special envoy for UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed stated.

Nusseibah called on Washington to ensure that Israel does not move ahead with annexing swaths of the territory, saying such a step would undo the regional normalization brokered by President Donald Trump.
