An agreement to normalize Israel’s relations with Bahrain was also signed on the same day. Sudan, which had been under pressure from the United States, also signed a similar agreement with Israel on January 6, 2021, receiving a loan worth $1.5 billion from Washington and being removed from the list of terrorist countries.
Morocco also officially announced the normalization of its relations with Israel on December 10, 2020, after which the United States recognized Morocco’s sovereignty over Western Sahara.
