At Peres memorial, Netanyahu says former president would’ve been pleased by Gulf deals

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pays tribute to former president Shimon Peres at a virtual memorial marking four years since his death.

Peres was “unforgettable,” says Netanyahu, praising his decades-long efforts to bolster Israel’s security.

He also says Peres would be pleased with the normalization deals with the UAE and Bahrain.

“This is peace that the spirit of Shimon Peres is certainly taking pride in,” says Netanyahu.
