Former U.S. President Donald Trump has called on several Muslim-majority countries, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar, to join the Abraham Accords, aiming to normalize relations with Israel.

In his request, Trump highlighted the strategic importance of this alliance in fostering peace with Iran. Pakistan has outrightly declined the proposal, while the response from other invited nations is still unknown amid deep-seated suspicions towards Israel.

The Abraham Accords, initially signed in 2020 with the UAE and Bahrain, stand as a critical step in Middle Eastern diplomacy. As Trump negotiates with Iran, experts debate the viability and transformative potential of linking an Iran deal to this broader coalition.
