New Country to Join Abraham Accords
US President Donald Trump's special envoy announced that another nation will officially join the normalization agreements with Israel known as the Abraham Accords. The disclosure came Thursday during the FII Priority Summit in Miami Beach, Florida.
Official Statement
“I’m flying back to Washington tonight because we’re going to announce tonight, another country coming into the Abraham Accords,” said Steve Witkoff, the US Special Envoy to the Middle East.
Witkoff did not reveal which nation would be joining but confirmed that the official announcement would take place Thursday evening in Washington.
Upcoming White House Event
President Trump is scheduled to host the leaders of five Central Asian countries — Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Kyrgyzstan — at the White House on Thursday evening. It remains uncertain whether the new accord announcement will coincide with this event, but the president is expected to participate in any significant declaration.
