Israeli Ambassador to U.S.: Another Israel-Arab Deal Expected in Coming Weeks

(Al Arabiya) Emily Judd - Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer told Al Arabiya in an interview on Friday: "There are several countries where there are possibilities [for peace]....We hope that we see another breakthrough very, very, soon - in the weeks and months ahead." "Turkey is condemning the Emirates for moving towards the relations that Turkey has with Israel - and has had for decades. We have an embassy in Ankara and Turkey has an embassy in Israel....Unfortunately, the Turkish leader in recent years has not been a constructive force...and he perhaps sees himself as leading the Muslim Brotherhood throughout the Middle East....And I think it's very, very unfortunate." "Unfortunately, the rejectionists among the Palestinians towards peace are the ascendant forces. We have had a century of conflict with the Palestinians and, unfortunately, we have not had a Palestinian Anwar Sadat, a Palestinian King Hussain, or a Palestinian like Sheikh Mohammed [of the UAE] that was willing to...make peace."
