The Biden administration will soon establish a new post focused on expanding the Abraham Accords, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announces.
“We will soon create a position to further our diplomacy and engagement with governments and private sector, non-governmental organizations — all working toward a more peaceful and connected region,” Blinken says during an address to an AIPAC conference in Washington.
The Abraham Accords saw Israel sign normalization deals with the UAE, Bahrain and Morocco.
