In what might be another sign of warming relations between Israel and moderate Arab states, a United Arab Emirates government official is slated to address the annual American Jewish Committee Global Forum 2020, Israel Hayom has learned.  

Lebanese news channel Al-Mayadeen, which is identified with Hezbollah, reported that UAE Foreign Minister Anwar Gargash "will speak at a Jewish conference."

Another high-ranking Arab official – Sheikh Muhammed Al-Issa, secretary general of the Muslim World League – is also scheduled to speak at the conference, which begins Sunday and will be taking place online because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Al-Issa is scheduled to participate in the opening session of the conference at 7 p.m. Sunday along with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and Secretary General of the World Council of Religious Leaders Bawa Jain.

At 7 p.m. Monday, Defense Minister Benny Gantz is slated to participate in a discussion about the challenges and opportunities Israel is currently facing. At 10 p.m. Monday, president of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs Dr. Dore Gold and MK Meirav Michaeli are scheduled to debate the future of the West Bank.
