Trump says he expects expansion of Abraham accords soon, hopes Saudi Arabia joins
Former President Trump anticipates Saudi Arabia will join the Abraham Accords, which currently include four Arab states, aiming to expand regional diplomatic normalization.
- On Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump said he expected an expansion of the Abraham Accords soon and added, `I hope to see Saudi Arabia go in, and I hope to see others go in. I think when Saudi Arabia goes in, everybody goes in`.
- The Accords began in 2020 when the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain signed at the White House, with Morocco and Sudan later joining those agreements.
- The interview recorded on Thursday noted Trump said he had "some very good conversations" as recently as Wednesday with states willing to join the accords.
- On Monday, Trump convened Muslim and European leaders in Egypt to present his Gaza plan as a catalyst for wider peace, while an Arab League and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation session gathered nearly 60 member states.
- Regional tensions complicate expansion, as Israel’s war and bombings this year fuel fallout; 81 percent of Saudi respondents oppose normalisation, while Hezbollah's Secretary-General Naim Qassem and Syrian President al-Sharaa resist.
