Trump Invites Middle Eastern Countries to Join Abraham Accords

President Donald Trump has reached out to several Middle Eastern nations, encouraging them to join the Abraham Accords. In a social media update on Monday, he shared insights regarding the ongoing negotiations with Iran.

On his Truth Social account, Trump suggested that regional allies should align with the Abraham Accords, which aim to normalize relations between Israel and Arab countries, and connect these agreements to the deal with Iran.

Trump mentioned nations like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, and Jordan, stating, “After all the efforts that the United States has made to put together this very complex puzzle, we should at least be required to have all of these countries sign the Abraham Accords at the same time.”

He also met on Saturday with leaders from these countries along with existing signatories of the accords.

“One or two people may have reasons not to do so, and that would be acceptable, but most people are ready, willing and able to make this rapprochement with Iran a far more historic event than it would otherwise be,” he added.

Trump pointed out that nations like the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan, and Kazakhstan, who have already signed the accords, are experiencing economic and social benefits. There’s no indication they’ll back out of the agreement.

“The reason is because the Abraham Accords were great for them and will be even better for everyone, bringing real power, strength and peace to the Middle East for the first time in 5,000 years,” he claimed.

He urged Saudi Arabia and Qatar to sign on without delay, hinting that more countries might follow.

Referring to ongoing peace efforts with Iran, he stated, “If we don’t do that, we shouldn’t be part of this deal because it shows bad faith.”

In the same update, Trump expressed hopefulness about the negotiations but cautioned against the repercussions if an agreement is not reached.

“Negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran are progressing well! It’s either a big deal for everyone or no deal at all – back to the front, with some shooting, but bigger and stronger than ever before – and no one wants that!” he mentioned.

He noted conversations with several leaders who would welcome Iran into the Abraham Accords once a deal is finalized, suggesting that this could lead to a more united Middle East.
