Bahrain Normalizes Relations with Israel
(White House) President Donald Trump said Friday, "Just a few moments ago, I hosted a historic call between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and King Hamad Al Khalifa of Bahrain....In the spirit of peace and cooperation, both leaders also agreed that Bahrain will fully normalize its diplomatic relations with Israel. They will exchange embassies and ambassadors, begin direct flights between their countries, and launch cooperation initiatives across a broad range of sectors, including health, business, technology, education, security, and agriculture....This is now the second peace agreement that we have announced in the last month, and I am very hopeful that there will be more to follow."
