After a bumpy week for Israel diplomatically, Foreign Minister Eli Cohen meets with the ambassadors of many of Israel’s most important partners at the home of UAE Ambassador to Israel Mohamed Al Khaja.

Joining them were the ambassadors from the US, France, UK, Germany, India and Morocco to discuss ways to expand the Abraham Accords and multilateral cooperation.

Israel came under criticism this week from many of these countries in the wake of National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir’s controversial visit to the Temple Mount.
