Syria's Abraham Accords inclusion may take time

Syria's potential inclusion in the Abraham Accords may take time, according to a statement from a former U.S. envoy. This announcement comes as the Trump administration explores expanding the normalization agreements. Thomas Barrack, a real estate developer and former U.S. diplomat, shared this assessment with the New York Times. Barrack, a close associate of former President Trump, has been involved in diplomatic efforts related to Syria. The Abraham Accords, brokered by Trump, aimed to normalize relations between Israel and several Arab nations. However, the agreements' focus on economic aspects and lack of progress on the Palestinian issue have limited their overall success.
