Gaza war looms large at Arab-British Economic Summit in London

LONDON: Business figures and government officials on Monday hailed expanding economic ties between the Arab world and the UK at the third Arab-British Economic Summit in London, organized by the Arab-British Chamber of Commerce.

However, they warned that the looming threat of an escalation in the Gaza conflict threatens to undermine years of economic progress.

The summit, of which Arab News is a media partner, aims to bolster business ties between the UK and the Arab world under the theme “Sustaining an Emerging Vision.”
