A senior official in the political system told Israel Today that the development is very disturbing.

He said, "The Emirates is on its way to playing the Qatari game," referring to Qatar's good relations with the West - including the United States, as well as its excellent relations with Iran, the Muslim Brotherhood and extremist Islamic elements. In the American weakness. "Abraham's agreements were born because the United States broadcast that it was strong and could be trusted. When that is not the case, the parties draw conclusions."

It should be noted that similar things were said last week by former Prime Minister Netanyahu.

"They are starting to move towards Iran because they feel there is a weakness here. They feel that there was a change in Washington and there was a change in Jerusalem. The breakthrough between the Gulf states and Israel is in danger," Netanyahu attacked.
