Kazakhstan to become new participant in Abraham Accords, normalizing relations with Israel
Kazakhstan is expected to be announced as a new member of the Abraham Accords, an initiative that has had a positive impact on relations between Israel and a number of Muslim countries. This decision underscores the United States' efforts to revitalize this format in the context of the current situation in Gaza. Kazakhstan already has full diplomatic and economic ties with Israel, but its participation in the agreements will be a symbolic step.

On Thursday, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev will meet with US President Donald Trump at the White House, as well as with other Central Asian leaders. This meeting is part of Washington's efforts to strengthen its influence in a region traditionally controlled by Russia. Trump intends to expand the Abraham Accords, as attention to them has been growing recently, particularly after statements that Saudi Arabia may join the agreements.
In addition to Kazakhstan, other Central Asian countries, such as Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan, are also being considered as potential participants in the Abraham Accords. This indicates a change in the geopolitical situation in the region, which could lead to new alliances and economic cooperation. An official announcement of Kazakhstan's accession is expected during the meeting at the White House.
