Kara calls for ‘peace and security’ during UAE visit

Communications Minister Ayoub Kara calls for “peace and security” during his visit to the United Arab Emirates, as Israel launches an unprecedented diplomatic push into Gulf states.

“Peace and security in every state… with economic and scientific progress is what guarantees a future for the coming generations,” Ayoub Kara says at a telecom conference in Dubai.

Kara’s statement comes amid a diplomatic push by Israel in the mainly Sunni Gulf, which Jerusalem sees as an ally against Shiite power Iran. It follows visits by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Oman on Thursday and Culture Minister Miri Regev to Abu Dhabi over the weekend.
