The Abraham Accords normalized relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. Among the issues discussed during this fascinating podcast include:

• What is the primary reason that the UAE decided to normalize relations with Israel?
• What is the likelihood that other Arab countries—such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Oman—may normalize relations with Israel?
• What are the cultural inhibitors to Israelis and Emiratis transacting business together?
• Which Emirate industries have the greatest pain points, and thus greatest receptivity to Israeli technology?
• To what extent may warmer relations with the UAE help Israeli companies serve Muslim countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia?
• How might growing Emirate technologies in Israel foster better relations with Arab Israelis and Palestinians?
