First Arab-Africa-Israel Security Conference to Be Held in Jerusalem
(JNS) Etgar Lefkovits - Representatives of 14 African and Arab countries will convene in Jerusalem next month for the first-ever Arab-Africa-Israel conference on Middle East security. The three-day conference, entitled "Trusted Regional Partnerships at a Time of Shifting Alliances," organized by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, will include participants from countries without diplomatic relations with Israel. The conference will focus on security, stability and cooperation, with discussions on the Abraham Accords, anti-radicalism and counterinsurgency, as well as food and water security. The participants are from Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Ethiopia, Uganda, Djibouti, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Somalia, Sudan, Somaliland, South Sudan and South Africa. "Iran and its Hizbullah terror proxy are subverting states across the region and Africa as well," said Dan Diker, president of the Jerusalem Center. "Israel is being sought after by its Arab and African neighbors near and far to collaborate on key issues such as food and water security at a time of regional instability."
