Companies in the United Arab Emirates and Israel will join forces to research and develop technology to fight the novel coronavirus, the two countries, which have no official diplomatic ties, said Thursday. The UAE-Israel collaboration is a cog in the much greater wheel of rapidly warming ties between the Arab states and Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu broke the news of an impending collaboration between the Jewish state and the Arab Gulf country, following “prolonged and intense contacts”.

“This collaboration will be in the areas of research and development and technology, in areas that will improve health security throughout the region,” Netanyahu said in a statement.

Hours later the Emirati state news agency WAM confirmed the plan.

“Two private companies in the UAE sign(ed) an agreement with two companies in Israel to develop research and technology to fight COVID-19,” WAM said.
This scientific and medical agreement forms part of constructive cooperation aimed at addressing the COVID-19 pandemic to safeguard the health of the region’s peoples.

“As a result of the pandemic’s spread worldwide, it is imperative to place the protection of humanity at the forefront of global action to overcome this unprecedented crisis,” WAM added.

Why the facade. UAE should initiate full diplomatic relations instead of beating around the bush.

There are always going to be the one who thinks he/she is better, wiser and righteous then the other to break the ranks but at what cost to the unity. What a crap excuse of corona virus research collaboration while Israel daddy US have poured billions to come up with the vaccine as compared to the few millions by Israel. Oman can host Israel PM won't be long when UAE does the same to open the corona virus laboratory in Dubai and all so called sheikhs with beaming smile will be standing shoulder to shoulder with the killer of the Palestinians kids. They awarded Modi the highest award of UAE with the lovey dovey hugs and smiles after article 370 too. Bravo what a progress for the Mir Jaffars of the 20th century.

That is an urban myth. A classic example of fake news.

Yes it's better to keep the region stagnant and at constant war because 'palestinians' demand it. Refusing to make any deal or even talk because any deal means their scam is over and no more billions in donations from all over the world.

Some of the smarter nations in the region have finally cottoned onto the palestinian scam.
