US President Donald Trump has “mandatorily” requested Pakistan, Turkey, as well as Washington’s Arab Muslim allies like Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Jordan to join the Abraham Accords as part of a larger deal with Iran, warning that it will be a “Great Deal for all or, no Deal at all”.
What did Trump say about Saudi, Pakistan joining Abraham Accords?
In a lengthy Truth Social post, Trump said the negotiations with Iran are “proceeding nicely”, but warned that “It will only be a Great Deal for all or, no Deal at all — Back to the Battlefront and shooting, but bigger and stronger than ever before — And nobody wants that!”.
The US president said he held discussions on Saturday with Arab allies, including Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, Turkish Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Abdel Fattah El-Sisi of Egypt, King Abdullah II of Jordan, and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa of Bahrain as well as Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir and heads of other Gulf states.
“I stated that, after all the work done by the United States to try and pull this very complex puzzle together, it should be mandatory that all of these Countries, at a minimum, simultaneously, sign onto the Abraham Accords,” he said.
Which countries Trump wants in Abraham Accords?
Trump listed out countries he wants to sign the Abraham Accords, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Türkiye, Egypt, and Jordan, while asserting that he might also bring Iran on board to sign the accords to which Bahrain and the UAE are already signatories.
“It may be possible that one or two have a reason for not doing so, and that will be accepted, but most should be ready, willing, and able to make this Settlement with Iran a far more Historic Event than it would, otherwise, be,” he said.

Why Trump wants more countries to sign the accords?
Trump said he is “mandatorily requesting” all countries mentioned in his list to immediately sign the Abraham Accords, and said it would be an honor have Iran part of this “unparalleled World Coalition”.
“The Middle East would be United, Powerful, and Economically Strong, like perhaps no other area, anywhere in the World! By copy of this TRUTH, I am asking my Representatives to begin, and successfully complete, the process of signing these Countries into the already Historic Abraham Accords,” he wrote.
Trump says ‘Adios’, hints at US-Iran talks collapse
Notably, Trump’s remarks come a day after he posted a cryptic “Adios” message on his Truth Social, sparking speculation about whether the ongoing US-Iran peace talks have collapsed, and if the military conflict between Tehran and Washington will be reignited amid a fragile ceasefire.
“Adios”, Trump captioned a Truth Social post accompanied by an AI-generated image showing Iran-flagged speedboats being bombed at sea, presumably in the Strait of Hormuz, by what looks like a MQ-9 Predator drone.
