Israel to be at US-led Bahrain peace workshop: Official

UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and host country Bahrain also set to attend event on June 25-26

JERUSALEM (AA) - Israel will attend the U.S.-led Mideast conference in Bahrain slated for June 25-26, officials announced Sunday.

“Israel will be at the Bahrain conference,” Foreign Minister Israel Katz told Channel 13 News.

Katz made his remarks on the sidelines of a conference in New York sponsored by Israeli daily the Jerusalem Post.

“Israel has a significant role to play in promoting ties with pragmatic Arab countries in the region,” he said.

According to Katz, the main part of these efforts will be the planned Bahrain Peace to Prosperity economic workshop.

The workshop, scheduled for June 25-26, will reportedly be headed by Jared Kushner, U.S. President Donald Trump’s senior White House adviser and son-in-law, and his Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt.

Four Arab states — the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and host country Bahrain — have all stated that they will be participating in the conference.

A senior White House official also said that Jordan, Egypt, and Morocco had also confirmed their attendance.
