Ep. 10: One-year anniversary of the Abraham Accords

The architects of the agreement say they are optimistic that more Arab nations will join.

Global Perspectives celebrates the one-year anniversary of the Abraham Accords with Ellie Cohanim’s interview of two of the architects of the normalization agreement: Dr. Victoria Coates (former special assistant to President Donald Trump) and Robert Greenway (executive director of the Abraham Accords Institute for Peace).

Together, they discuss the Trump administration’s foreign-policy achievements, including the “maximum pressure” campaign against Iran, jump-starting the recent pullout of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, the Abraham Accords and the progress of peace in the Middle East.

It also airs on the Jewish Broadcasting Service (JBS).

About “Global Perspectives with Ellie Cohanim”:

Global Perspectives is Jewish News Syndicate’s newest production. Join former U.S. Deputy Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism at the U.S. Department of State Ellie Cohanim, as she hosts some of the most important geopolitical conversations taking place in the Jewish world today. Cohanim, a sought-after speaker in her own right, interviews heads of state, policymakers, thought leaders and activists, in frank and open discussions.

These conversations provide key insights into critical and time-sensitive issues, including the Iranian nuclear threat, the rise of violent anti-Semitism, anti-Zionist activities, Christian and Muslim support for Israel, and the historic Abraham Accords.

The initiation of the joint U.S.-Israel military campaign against Iran has precipitated a fundamental refocusing of regional priorities. This unprecedented military undertaking has forcefully shifted the geopolitical center of gravity toward the Persian Gulf, rapidly relegating the Gaza Strip to a secondary theater of operations.
“There could have been kids at this kindergarten,” said Rishon Letzion Mayor Raz Kinstlich.
“We are getting very close to meeting our objectives as we consider winding down our great Military efforts in the Middle East with respect to the Terrorist Regime of Iran.”
“We are determined to continue striking our enemies on all fronts,” added the Israeli premier.
The Islamic Republic must open the Strait of Hormuz completely, “without threat,” or the United States will begin targeting its power plants, said the president.
IDF chief says strikes have weakened Iran’s regime and vows to push Hezbollah threat from border as “Operation Roaring Lion” enters fourth week.
