UK PM Boris Johnson: UAE-Israel deal 'hugely good news'

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson welcomed an agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates that will lead to a full normalization of diplomatic relations between the two states.

"The UAE and Israel’s decision to normalize relations is hugely good news," Johnson said on Twitter.

"It was my profound hope that annexation did not go ahead in the West Bank and today’s agreement to suspend those plans is a welcome step on the road to a more peaceful Middle East."
