They should be part of that process, but they should not have a veto over the process.” “He said, “when the Palestinians see that most of the Arab world has reconciled itself to the Jewish state, they too, will be more likely to abandon the fantasy of destroying Israel, and finally embrace a path of genuine peace with it.” The Israeli Prime Minister told the Assembly that the Abraham accords “heralded the dawn of a new age of peace, but I believe that we are at the cusp of an even more dramatic breakthrough, an historic peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia. Such a peace, he said, “will go a long way to ending the Arab-Israeli conflict. It will encourage other Arab states to normalize their relations with Israel. It will enhance the prospects of peace with the Palestinians. It will encourage a broader reconciliation between Judaism and Islam, between Jerusalem and Mecca, between the descendants of Isaac and the descendants of Ishmael. Netanyahu concluded by saying, “let us harness our resolve and our courage to stop the curse of a nuclear Iran and rolled back its fanaticism and aggression. Let us bring forth the blessings of a new Middle East that will transform lands once written with conflict and chaos into fields of prosperity and peace.” The Abraham Accords are a series of bilateral agreements signed between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, as well as Morocco. ----------- The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the Organization. Comprising all Member States, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter of the United Nations. Each of the 193 Member States of the United Nations has an equal vote. The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter. The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world. But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.
