Israel now opens Consulate in Dubai

| @indiablooms | 30 Jun 2021, 06:43 pm

Tel Aviv/UNI/Sputnik: Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid inaugurated the Consulate General in Dubai on Wednesday.

It comes a day after the country opened its embassy in Abu Dhabi.

"Yesterday we opened the embassy in Abu Dhabi, today we are opening the consulate in Dubai. We are starting to get used to making history. This consulate isn't symbolic. It's a place of life. Of tourism. Of business. Of dialogue between two talented peoples who can and who want to contribute to one another," Lapid, who is on his first visit to the UAE, said during the ceremony.

The Israeli diplomatic mission has been operating in United Arab Emirates since January, when the first Israeli diplomat arrived in the Emirati capital.

The UAE and Israel struck a US-brokered deal, officially known as the Abraham Accords, to establish diplomatic ties in August and ratified it in October.
