Trump Advocates Expanding Abraham Accords Amid Iran Talks
President Donald Trump proposed expanding the Abraham Accords to include Muslim-majority countries as a condition for a peace agreement with Iran, according to The Times of Israel. The U. S. military carried out self-defense strikes targeting missile launch sites and mines in southern Iran amid ongoing negotiations, with Trump stating that talks were progressing positively, as reported by AP News.
Later, Trump specifically called for countries such as Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey to join the Abraham Accords as part of any deal to ease tensions with Iran, according to France 24. These developments reflect a strategy linking regional peace efforts with the broader diplomatic process involving Iran. The military actions underscored the complex security environment surrounding the negotiations, while Trump's calls aimed to broaden the coalition supporting the accords and the peace process.
