A new nation is poised to join the Abraham Accords, the series of normalization agreements with Israel, according to a statement made by US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. The official announcement is expected later today.<\/p>\n
Witkoff revealed the impending development during the American Business Forum in Miami. “I will be returning to Washington this evening because we will be announcing tonight the addition of another country to the Abraham Accords,” he stated.<\/p>\n
Previously, the US Special Envoy suggested that Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Libya, and Syria could potentially normalize relations with Israel through participation in the Abraham Accords.<\/p>\n
