Ambassador of the UAE to Israel Mohammad Mahmoud Al Khaja arrived in Tel Aviv and presented his credentials to the President of the State on Monday.
Israeli President Reuven Rivlin formally received the first-ever ambassador from the Emirates, following last year’s historic agreement between the countries to normalise ties.
Khaja wrote on his Twitter account, “I arrived today in Tel Aviv as the first UAE Ambassador to the State of Israel and met Gabi Ashkenazi, Israeli Minister of Foreign Affairs, to discuss growing bilateral relations since the signing of the Abraham Accords, as well as enhancing cooperation in various fields”
Khaja also said, “Today, I had the honour of presenting my credentials to HE Reuven Rivlin, President of Israel, as the first UAE Ambassador to the State of Israel. I look forward to representing my beloved country and working to strengthen cooperation and relations between our two countries.”
Israel FM Gabi wrote on Twitter, “Welcome to Israel, first Ambassador of the UAE, Mohammad Mahmoud Al Khaja.
This is a significant milestone in relations between our countries.
“I welcome your arrival to promote the opening of an Emirati embassy, as well as the fast opening of the Israeli missions in the UAE.
