UAE senior official cautions that Israel's annexation of West Bank will end hopes of regional integration

Abu Dhabi, Sep 3 (UNI) A senior United Arab Emirates official has warned Israel that any move to annex the West Bank will cross a “red line”, threatening the future of the Abraham Accords and ending hopes for regional integration.
“Annexation would be a red line for my government, and that means there can be no lasting peace. It would foreclose the idea of regional integration and be the death knell of the two-state solution,” Emirati special envoy Lana Nusseibeh told The Times of Israel in Abu Dhabi.
Her remarks came just days before Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is due to consult ministers on advancing annexation plans, and as Israel’s far-right coalition pushes for the formal incorporation of large parts of the occupied territory.
