LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Senator Sirajul Haq has expressed his strong reaction to the diplomatic agreement reached between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Israel.
In his statement, Siraj-ul-Haq said that the government should convene an OIC meeting and the UAE should be pressed not to divide the Muslim Ummah.
The JI chief said that the UAE should review the agreement with Israel. US President Donald Trump has brokered the deal between the UAE and Israel to win election, he claimed.
He said that the diplomatic relations between Israel and the UAE were a great tragedy for the Muslim world.
Earlier, the United Arab Emirates had established formal ties with Israel.
The two countries have signed a deal leading to complete normalisation of diplomatic ties.
The deal has been brokered by US President Donald Trump.
After Jordon and Egypt, the UAE is the third middle eastern country to establish formal ties with Israel.
Speaking to media in Tel Aviv, Israeli PM Netanyaho said that he had agreed to ‘delay’ the annexation under the deal signed with the UAE. However, he said that the ‘plan’ is remained ‘on the table’.
