Trump posts meme ‘I will blow s... up’ as he demands Iran deal include Middle East countries signing accord with Israel
SUMMARY
US President Donald Trump has suggested that any agreement to end the conflict with Iran should require Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and other nations to join the Abraham Accords. While the idea draws on his prior diplomatic efforts, key countries including Pakistan maintain their longstanding positions on Israel-Palestine, and the proposal appears uncoordinated with ongoing regional realities. Analysts question its feasibility amid broader unresolved war issues.
