The deal was finalized in a phone call on Thursday between Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi.

In a joint statement by the United States, Israel and UAE posted by Trump on Twitter, it said that this was a "historic diplomatic breakthrough" and will "advance peace in the Middle East."

The statement said that in the coming weeks, Israeli and Emirati delegations will meet to sign bilateral agreements on security, tourism, direct flights, investment, telecommunications, technology, health care, reciprocal embassies, culture, energy and the environment.

"HUGE breakthrough today! Historic Peace Agreement between our two GREAT friends, Israel and the United Arab Emirates!" Trump tweeted.

Additionally, Israel and the UAE will "immediately expand and accelerate cooperation regarding the treatment of and the development of" a vaccine for COVID-19.

Under the deal, however, Israel has agreed to suspend applying sovereignty to parts of the West Bank, also known as Judea and Samaria.

"The United States, Israel and the United Arab Emirates are confident that additional diplomatic breakthroughs with other nations are possible," added the statement. In recent years, Israel has had visits and warming ties with other Gulf Arab states, including Bahrain and Oman. Clandestine relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia have also reportedly grown as well.

In retweeting Trump, Netanyahu called it an "historic day."

Bin Zayad confirmed on Twitter that an agreement was reached to "stop further Israeli annexation of Palestinian territories," and that Israel and the UAE "also agreed to cooperation and setting a roadmap towards establishing a bilateral relationship."
