Pakistani Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has said that he does not believe that Islamabad should join the Abraham Accords, normalising relations with Israel, the ANI news agency reported.
– “Personally, I don’t think that we should join any such accord that clashes with our fundamental ideologies,” Asif said in an interview with Samaa TV, according to ANI.
– “We have a very clear stance that this is not acceptable to us,” he said, according to the report.
– Trump has said that more countries should agree to normalise relations with Israel as part of an agreement to end the war on Iran.
– In a post on Truth Social on Monday, Trump said he had told the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkiye, Egypt and Jordan that they should sign up to the accords.
– “I am mandatorily requesting that all Countries immediately sign the Abraham Accords, and that, if Iran signs its Agreement with me, as President of the United States of America, it would be an Honor to have them also be part of this unparalleled World Coalition,” Trump said.
– “The Middle East would be United, Powerful, and Economically Strong, like perhaps no other area, anywhere in the World!”
