DUBAI: The UAE denied on Wednesday reports that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the country.
The Israeli PM’s office said earlier on Wednesday that Netanyahu visited the UAE in March, during the war with Iran.
A statement from the UAE’s foreign ministry denied that the visit took place and also said there had been no visits by any Israeli military delegation.
“Any claims regarding unannounced visits or undisclosed arrangements are entirely unfounded unless officially announced by the relevant authorities in the UAE,” the ministry’s statement said.
“The UAE reaffirms that its relations with Israel are public and conducted within the framework of the well-known and officially declared Abraham Accords, and are not based on non-transparent or unofficial arrangements,” it added.
