Knesset still debating deal with UAE, but vote coming soon

Checking in, a Knesset debate on the treaty with the UAE is still going, entering its eighth hour, after around 100 MKs and ministers have had a chance to have their say.

The debate will mercifully soon draw to a close with an actual vote, which is widely expected to pass.

Merav Michaeli of the Labor Party says that she will vote for the agreement, but like many others, says what is really needed is a peace agreement with the Palestinians.

“Oslo may have been an interim agreement, but it was a peace agreement,” she says.
