Trump links Abraham Accords to any Iran deal [View all]

Source: Reuters

U.S. President Donald ​Trump said on Monday that he has asked countries including Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt, Jordan and Turkey ‌to join the Abraham Accords en masse to normalize relations with Israel as he tries to negotiate an agreement to end the war with Iran.

Trump said he spoke on Saturday to leaders of those countries, as well as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, which have already signed ​the accords, a set of agreements to normalize relations with Israel.

"I am mandatorily requesting that all Countries immediately sign ​the Abraham Accords, and that, if Iran signs its Agreement with me, as President of the ⁠United States of America, it would be an Honor to have them also be part of this unparalleled World Coalition," Trump ​wrote in a post on Truth Social.

He cited "all the work done by the United States to try and pull this very ​complex puzzle together."

"Mandatorily requesting"? LOL. And he obviously thinks this "unparalleled World Coalition" will get him the Nobel Peace Prize he's so desperate for.

Not surprisingly, neither Israel nor the other countries have responded to the latest fantasy from Delusional Donald.
