As a result of the Trump administration’s efforts in the Middle East, four nations have signed peace agreements with Israel, including the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Bahrain, and Sudan.

In this episode, we sit down with Ellie Cohanim, the U.S. Deputy Special Envoy to Monitor & Combat Anti-Semitism. To forward these efforts, the Moroccan NGO the Mimouna Association has partnered with the US State Department, a move lauded by Morocco’s ambassador to the US, Princess Lalla Joumala Alaoui.
