Abraham Accords: a 2020-era framework normalizing relations between Israel and several Arab states, redefining regional ties and US diplomacy.
Israel’s prime minister has said he has made a secret March 26 trip to Al‑Ain to meet UAE president Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed and has called it a “historic breakthrough.” The UAE has denied the visit. Multiple outlets have reported broader Israel–UAE defence cooperation during the Iran war, including Iron Dome batteries and alleged intelligence coordination.
President Trump has said negotiations with Iran are "proceeding nicely" and has tied any agreement to a requirement that Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt and Jordan sign onto the Abraham Accords; commentators and diplomats are pushing back, noting many on his list already recognise Israel or are unlikely to normalise ties.
