Pakistan defence minister rejects joining Abraham Accords


Pakistan defence minister rejects joining Abraham Accords

Pakistani defence minister Khawaja Asif has said he does not believe Pakistan should join the Abraham Accords, rejecting calls to normalise relations with Israel.

Speaking to Samaa TV, Asif said joining such an arrangement would conflict with Pakistan’s fundamental principles and added that the country’s position on the issue remained clear.

His comments came after US President Donald Trump urged several regional countries, including Pakistan, to sign the accords as part of a broader push for regional normalisation linked to ongoing diplomacy with Iran.

In a Truth Social post, Trump said he had encouraged leaders from Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, Qatar, Pakistan,  Turkey, Egypt and Jordan to join the accords, arguing that wider participation could strengthen regional stability and economic cooperation.
