Kazakhstan is the first country in my second term to join the Abraham Accords, the first of many. This is an important step forward in building ties around the world. Today, more and more countries are joining my Abraham Accords to enjoy peace and prosperity. We will soon announce a signing ceremony to make it official, and many other countries are trying to join this FORCE club. We still have a long way to go in uniting countries for economic stability and growth – real progress and real results. BLESSED BE THE PEACEMAKERS!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
