He should be careful, but presumably it depends upon which way the trade is going. I don't believe Israel had any issue with Emirates. It was Emirates blocking Israel (side note: this seems to have changed recently). So, as long as you cover yourself with Emirates, you can execute that trade and not get hung up. If, however, Israel were the one embargoing the export, you would get yourself in really deep shit.
