U.S. President Donald Trump says any future agreement with Iran should include a condition requiring additional countries to join the Abraham Accords, the U.S.-brokered normalization framework originally aimed at improving relations with Israel. According to multiple outlets, Trump made the comments in a statement posted on social media on Monday. He said negotiations on an Iran-related understanding are “proceeding nicely,” while arguing that any eventual deal should be tied to expanded participation in the Abraham Accords.
The outlets report that Trump specifically named Saudi Arabia and Turkey among the countries he believes should be included. The Abraham Accords were initially signed in 2020 during Trump’s first term. The reports present Trump’s position as a proposed linkage between Iran diplomacy and broader regional normalization efforts, but they do not provide additional details on which negotiations are under way, what terms are being discussed, or whether other parties would accept the requirement.
