Former United States President Donald Trump has expressed optimism about the future expansion of the Abraham Accords, the agreements that normalized diplomatic relations between Israel and several Arab nations. In a recent interview, Trump shared that he has held promising discussions with countries interested in joining the accords and highlighted Saudi Arabia as a key potential participant. He suggested that Saudi Arabia's involvement could encourage other nations to follow suit, further broadening the scope of the agreements.
The Abraham Accords were initially signed in September 2020, bringing together Israel, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, with Morocco and Sudan joining later. While the current administration has supported the accords, it has not succeeded in adding new members. Trump and his former envoy have indicated that announcements regarding new participants, including countries like Azerbaijan and Central Asian allies, may be forthcoming.
