US President Donald Trump on Friday brokered another "peace deal" in the Middle East with Bahrain announcing that it would normalise diplomatic ties with Israel. While speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said that 바카라Bahrain has decided to fully normalise its diplomatic relations with Israel.바카라 This announcement comes just a month after the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Israel also announced a similar agreement. Leaders of the UAE and Israel are scheduled to finalise their agreement at the White House next week.

Trump hosted a historic call between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain and is being credited with mediating both the deals.
Bahrain and Israel are expected to exchange embassies and ambassadors, allow direct flights between the two countries and launch cooperation initiatives across a broad range of sectors, including health, business, technology, education, security, and agriculture. In the light of brokering the deal, Trump said 바카라it was a truly historic day.바카라

Observing that there have been only two "peace agreements" with Israel in the last 72 years, Trump said that this is now the second peace agreement that he has announced in the last month. 바카라And I am very hopeful that there will be more to follow,바카라 he said, adding that there's tremendous enthusiasm on behalf of other countries to also normalise relations with Israel. 바카라And we think, ultimately, you'll have most countries join, and you're going to have the Palestinians in a very good position. They want to come in-- they're going to want to come in because all of their friends are in. We have tremendous enthusiasm for coming into the deal,바카라 Trump remarked.

The US Ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, said that Trump's policy of 바카라peace through strength바카라 has changed the world profoundly for the better. Commenting on the developments, Trump바카라s son-in-law and special advisor Jarred Kushner said, 바카라it took Israel 72 years to form the first two peace agreements with Jordan and Egypt. And then, in the last 29 days, we now have two more peace agreements, which shows that the region is really changing.바카라 Kushner also announced that Bahrain바카라s foreign minister will also be present during the signing of the peace agreement between the UAE and Israel at the White House next week.

Describing this as a historic agreement, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo remarked that President Trump has fulfilled his promise to strengthen the Unites States바카라 ties with other countries while building new partnerships in the pursuit of peace. 바카라From my recent travels to the region, there is clear momentum for a new Middle East. I thank King Hamad and Prime Minister Netanyahu for having the courage to change the fate of nations,바카라 he said.
