TEHRAN - The United Arab Emirates has made a"huge mistake" in reaching a deal toward normalising ties with Israel, Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said in a televised speech on Saturday .The UAE-Israel agreement, announced on Thursday, is seen as a strategic boost for the UAE's regional and global standing.

“This is not about Iran. This is about the UAE, Israel and the United States,” said Anwar Gargash, UAE minister of state for foreign affairs.While the Trump administration and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have sought to frame the agreement as part of their attempt to confront and further isolate Iran, Gargash signaled that the UAE isn’t looking to provoke its near neighbor.

Gargash dismissed the statement as a “double standard” which glossed over Turkey’s own significant trade links with Israel.
