Foreign Ministry Director General Ronen Levy lands in Abu Dhabi at the head of Israel’s delegation to the first in-person summit of the I2U forum, consisting of Israel, India, the US and the UAE.
“This forum is evidence that the fruits of the Abraham Accords and new connections between peoples and countries sharing their capabilities and know-how can contribute to prosperity in the Middle East and beyond,” says Levy.
The group came together last July as a follow-on to the Abraham Accords, when they announced the partners would cooperate on water, energy, transportation, space, health and food security.
Israel’s delegation of 40 includes representatives from private sector companies as well as officials from the Economy, Energy, Agriculture, Health and Transportation ministries and members of Israel’s Innovation Authority, Export Institute, Manufacturers Association, Water Authority and Space Agency.
The Space Agency officials will lead a new space initiative examining ways to deal with climate change at the summit.
Responsibly covering this tumultuous time
As The Times of Israel’s political correspondent, I spend my days in the Knesset trenches, speaking with politicians and advisers to understand their plans, goals and motivations.
I'm proud of our coverage of this government's plans to overhaul the judiciary, including the political and social discontent that underpins the proposed changes and the intense public backlash against the shakeup.
