• Trump calls for all Middle Eastern nations to join the Abraham Accords for regional peace.
• Claims Iran's nuclear arsenal has been "totally obliterated" following regional conflicts.
• The ongoing war in Gaza complicates diplomatic normalization efforts.
• Discussions are underway with Azerbaijan to deepen ties with Israel.
• The need for Palestinian state recognition gains international momentum.

US President Donald Trump has urged all Middle Eastern countries to join the Abraham Accords, describing it as vital for ensuring lasting peace in the region. He asserted on his social media platform that "now that the nuclear arsenal being 'created' by Iran has been totally OBLITERATED," it is imperative for Middle Eastern nations to participate in the Accords, initially signed during his presidency in 2020, which sought to normalize relations between Israel and various Arab states, according to Indiatimes and TRT Global.

Trump's call comes in light of increased tensions after recent conflicts involving Iran, where he cited US attacks on Iranian nuclear sites as part of fostering a more secure Middle East. He emphasized that the Abraham Accords, which initially included the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco, represent a significant shift in regional diplomacy aimed at mitigating threats posed by Iran, as discussed in Al Jazeera and Dawn.

Despite Trump's statements, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza has raised international concern, complicating the dynamics of normalizing relations with Israel. The ongoing conflict has led to widespread condemnation and a push from various nations to recognize a Palestinian state, challenging the framework of the Abraham Accords. Analysts note that the death toll in Gaza has exceeded 60,000, creating significant hurdles for Trump's diplomatic aspirations, according to reports from Dawn and TRT Global.

Moreover, Trump’s administration is exploring the possibility of including Azerbaijan and some Central Asian allies in the Abraham Accords, reflecting ongoing efforts to expand these agreements and strengthen ties with Israel. This initiative highlights Trump's determination to reshape the political landscape in the Middle East despite regional challenges, as noted by Indiatimes, Al Jazeera, and Dawn.
