One of the most interesting discussions at the past IX Global Baku Forum was devoted to the search for achievement of peace and stability in the Middle East and throughout the Arab-Muslim world. In it, along with former leaders of the Arab countries and organizations, the former prime minister of Israel and the chief of the General Staff of the IDF Ehud Barak.
took part
Before the discussion, the Barak looked as concentrated as possible “Tomorrow, let’s talk tomorrow,” said Haqqqın.az and nodded to the leaflet with the theses with which he had to speak.
Niley El, the wife of Barack, who invariably accompanies the ex-prime minister on trips, explained to us: “He is very busy in Baku, a lot of official meetings. And here is such an important and topical topic …”
I must say that the discussion really turned out to be extremely interesting. The tone in it was set by the former Egyptian Foreign Minister and League of the Arab states (LAG) Ahmed Abdel Gade, who stated, in particular, that almost two million ethnic Arabs who are Israeli citizens became an integral part of the socio-economic life of the Jewish state.
“Arab citizens create a significant part of the Israeli GDP and have high demographic indicators, – Ahmed Abdel Gade emphasized.“ Arabs invest their capital and labor in Israel. As a result, the Jewish state cannot ignore the rights of Arabs, since they are participating in life in life The well-being of Israel depends on the countries. It becomes more and more obvious that by 2050 the prime minister of Israel will be ethnic Arab. “
“In the multinational democratic state, which is Israel, the exclusive right to be the head of government is not assigned to anyone, – Gayda Ehud Barak answered.” This question is being solved in the elections. But in relations between Arabs and Jews, a real thaw, oh, oh, oh. which we could only dream before. Today there are many Arabs to Israel, and for example, there are a lot of Jews to Dubai. Since the establishment of the diplomatic executions between Israel and the UAE, more than 500 thousand Israelis discovered a wonderful oak tree. They not only took advantage of the opportunity to ride in The 40-degree heat on skiing and visiting amazing palm islands, but they also established a serious business in the Emirates, bought real estate there, and many Israelis already live and work in this wonderful country … “
In a word, the discussion has become an illustration of how economic ties and common interests smoot it, otherwise they completely erase religious and political contradictions.
The next day, the Barak was again busy with official meetings, but Niley El, shared with Haqqin.az with her impressions of the visit to Azerbaijan.
I am delighted with how beautiful Baku is day and evening! ”said Ehuda Barack’s wife.“ My husband and I are walking around the city, I always photograph Baku beauties and send my relatives to Israel ”
