How to redirect command output to a file if the command itself contains redirection

Question

In the below shell script I'm executing the some command cmd remotely where in the command output is redirected to some file cmd_log. I'm getting the desired result as long as the command cmd itself doesn't contain redirection. If in-case the command cmd itself contains redirection, I want the command cmd to be executed in its entirety and cmd_log to be empty

#!/bin/bash

remote_execute() {
    cmd=$1
    cmd_log=$2
    
    ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -l user_name 100.100.100.100 "${cmd}" > "${cmd_log}"
}

cmd="echo abc=123 > /a/b/c/abc.txt"
cmd_log="/a/b/c/log.txt"

remote_execute "${cmd}" "${cmd_log}"

Error

./abc.sh: line 13: echo abc=123 > /a/b/c/abc.txt: No such file or directory

Expected Result

abc.txt

abc=123

log.txt to be empty

FWIW, I can reproduce it after:

export BASH_ENV=~/.foolishenv
cat > "$BASH_ENV" << 'EOF'
shopt -s expand_aliases
alias remote_execute='alias remote_execute=; fool'
EOF

Then:

$ ./your-script
./your-script: line 13: echo abc=123 > /a/b/c/abc.txt: No such file or directory

Other than that, I can't see how your script could produce that error.
