Egypt, UAE, Israel Leaders Meet In Egypt

The countries of Egypt, Israel, and United Arab Emirates met for a summit in Egypt discussing ties of development within the countries.

According to the Middle East Monitor on Wednesday, Egypt's President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi, Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince and de facto ruler of the UAE, Mohammed Bin Zayed held a two-day summit in the Egyptian resort of Sharm El-Sheikh.

In a statement issued by Bennett's office, it's said that; "The leaders discussed the ties between the three countries in the context of recent developments in the world and the region, and the ways to strengthen them on all levels."

Egyptian presidency spokesman, Bassam Radi, also said the meeting included discussions on energy, market stability, and food security, as well as other international and regional issues.

Israel's Haaretz newspaper said Bennett will seek to persuade the UAE and Saudi Arabia to increase their oil production to reduce the world's dependence on Russian and Iranian oil.

Israel is also set to help Egypt find alternative sources of wheat supply, as about 85 percent of its wheat is sourced from Russia and Ukraine.
