Trump issues ultimatum: Demands 8 Middle Eastern countries including Saudi Arabia sign the Abraham Accords, boldly predicts "Iran will also join"

The Middle East geopolitical landscape is undergoing an epic reshuffle! U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed in a latest post that negotiations between the U.S. and Iran are progressing "very well," while simultaneously issuing an ultimatum to Middle Eastern powers including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey: to participate in the peace deal, they must simultaneously sign the Abraham Accords. Trump further painted a grand vision, boldly predicting that if the negotiations succeed, "it would be a great honor for Iran to join the agreement as well," vowing to build the most powerful economic and peace alliance in the Middle East in 5,000 years.

U.S. President Donald Trump once again demonstrated his signature "maximum pressure and art of the deal." As global markets held their breath for a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement, Trump released a post on his own social media platform, Truth Social, that shook global geopolitics. At the beginning of the post, Trump brought good news, stating that negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran are currently "progressing well." However, he immediately drew a hard line, emphasizing that there would only be two outcomes: "It is either a 'Great Deal' for everyone, or 'no deal' — which means returning to the battlefield with fire, and the scale will be larger and more intense than ever before. And no one wants to see that happen!" Trump revealed that he held intensive calls with several heavyweight leaders in the Middle East and the Islamic world last Saturday. The list of those mentioned is a "Middle East All-Star lineup," including: - Saudi Crown Prince MBS (Mohammed bin Salman) - UAE President MBZ (Mohammed bin Zayed) - Emir of Qatar Tamim and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman - Pakistan Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan - Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi - King Abdullah II of Jordan - King Hamad of Bahrain Trump made it clear to these leaders that since the U.S. has put so much effort into piecing together this complex geopolitical puzzle, as a minimum requirement, these countries must "mandatorily" and simultaneously sign the Abraham Accords. Trump specifically named Saudi Arabia and Qatar to take the lead in signing, with others to follow. Trump warned: "If they don't sign, they shouldn't be part of this deal, because it shows bad intentions." Trump highly praised the immense financial, economic, and social prosperity that the Abraham Accords have brought to existing members (such as the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan, and Kazakhstan). However, his subsequent remarks completely overturned traditional diplomatic frameworks. He dropped a bombshell, stating that in his calls with the aforementioned leaders, everyone agreed that once the U.S.-Iran agreement is signed, "it would be a great honor if Iran could also become part of the Abraham Accords!" Trump confidently concluded at the end of the post that this would be the most important document ever signed by these countries that have long been in conflict, and it will bring "true power, strength, and peace" to the Middle East, unprecedented in 5,000 years. He has officially ordered the U.S. delegation to immediately initiate the historic process of incorporating these countries into the Abraham Accords.
