The UK and Israel’s foreign ministers have declared that they will work
“night and day” to stop Iran getting a nuclear weapon as they sign a
“historic” 10-year plan for deepening ties. In a joint article for The
Daily Telegraph (see below), Liz Truss, the Foreign Secretary, and Yair
Lapid, Israel’s foreign affairs minister, preview their new “memorandum
of understanding”. The agreement, which will be signed on Monday, will
enable the UK and Israel to work more closely on issues such as
cybersecurity, technology development, defence, trade and science. It will
see Israel become one of the UK’s most trusted allies in thwarting cyber
attacks, according to a Foreign Office insider. Talks on a trade deal are
also set to begin early next year.
