The Abraham Accords are revived in Washington. Kazakhstan joined this Thursday treaty that seeks the normalization of relations between Israel and Arab and Muslim countries, as announced by the president of the United States, Donald Trump.
Kazakhstan thus joins United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan, the first signatories of the agreement, although Almaty and Israel have maintained full diplomatic relations for more than 30 years.
Through a publication in Truth Social, Trump called the event “an important advance in building bridges around the world.” The president noted that he had a call with the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahuand the Kazakh president, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev.
“Kazakhstan is the first country in my second term to join the Abraham Accords, the first of many,” he said. The statement recalled that Kazakhstan has maintained full diplomatic relations with Israel since 1992, after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Trump highlighted that this step is an example of “real progress” and congratulated those who contribute to international peace.
This Friday’s signing, sealed by Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, revitalizes the treaty as the main framework for cooperation, led by the United States, between Israel and Arab and Muslim countries.
It also represents a boost for Israel at a time when its isolation has increased due to the war in Gaza.
In fact, US officials explained to Axios that the announcement is intended to be a first step in repairing Israel’s position in the Arab and Muslim world.
They believe that bringing more Muslim-majority countries into the Abraham Accords could bolster Israel’s international legitimacy.
“This will show that the Abraham Accords are a club that many countries want to belong to and will be a step to turn the page on the Gaza war and move towards greater peace and cooperation in the region,” he explained to Axios a source.
