Foreign Ministry officials who accompanied Foreign Minister Yair Lapid's visit to the United Arab Emirates claim that the Emirates want to advance cooperation with Israel as soon as possible, and estimate that Prime Minister Naftali Bennett will arrive in the coming months to further strengthen relations, Channel 12 reported.

Lapid associates confirm what the Foreign Ministry says and claim that the Emirates is very frustrated that 10 months have passed since the signing of the historic Abraham Agreements, but there has been no significant progress in relations between the two countries.
