“It should be mandatory that all of these countries, at a minimum, simultaneously, sign onto the Abraham Accords,” Trump wrote.

President Donald Trump is pushing for a sweeping expansion of the Abraham Accords as part of a broader framework tied to ongoing negotiations with Iran, describing the effort as a potential turning point for the Middle East.

In a lengthy post, Trump said talks with Iran are “proceeding nicely,” but made clear that any agreement would be contingent on broader regional alignment.

“It will only be a Great Deal for all or, no Deal at all,” he wrote, warning that failure could mean “back to the battlefront… bigger and stronger than ever before.”

Trump said he raised the issue directly in discussions with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, and Bahrain, calling for many of them to formally join the Abraham Accords as part of the emerging framework.

He argued that simultaneous participation would elevate any agreement with Iran into a far more significant and historic development.

“It should be mandatory that all of these Countries, at a minimum, simultaneously, sign onto the Abraham Accords,” Trump wrote, singling out Saudi Arabia and Qatar as key countries that should “immediately” join.

Trump pointed to what he described as the success of the accords, calling them a “financial, economic, and social BOOM” for current members, and said their expansion would bring “true power, strength, and peace to the Middle East for the first time in 5,000 years.”

He also suggested that countries unwilling to join should be excluded from the broader deal, writing that refusal would signal “bad intention.”

Trump also raised the possibility that Iran itself could eventually be included in the framework.

“It would be an Honor to have them also be part of this unparalleled world coalition,” he wrote, adding that such a development “would be something special.”

Trump emphasized that negotiations are ongoing and not yet finalized while reiterating that any deal would sharply differ from the Obama-era nuclear agreement, which he again criticized as a “direct path” to a nuclear weapon.

The proposal to link a potential Iran deal with a major expansion of the Abraham Accords signals an ambitious attempt to reshape regional alliances, tying normalization, security, and diplomacy into a single framework as talks continue.
