Ex-U.S. Envoy Jason Greenblatt Joins Israeli Think Tank as Diplomacy Chief
(Jerusalem Post) Former U.S. Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt has joined the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs think tank as its senior director for Arab-Israeli diplomacy. An accomplished diplomat with years of experience working in the Middle East, Greenblatt's crowning achievement was playing a key role in the Abraham Accords. "Jason brings with him a wealth of experience and close relations with Arab states across the region including some without normalization agreements with Israel," Jerusalem Center president Dan Diker said. Greenblatt's joining comes after the Jerusalem Center hosted the first Arab-Israel-Africa security conference, bringing five Arab policy centers and 25 African institutes to Jerusalem in March. "The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs is not just a think tank, it's a 'do tank,'" Greenblatt said. "JCPA now serves as a convener and communications hub for policy, diplomacy and communications connecting the Arab world, Africa, Israel and the West."
