U.S. President Donald Trump said he hoped that Saudi Arabia would soon join the Abraham Accords, a series of normalization agreements between Israel and Arab countries.

"It will be a special day in the Middle East, with the whole world watching, when Saudi Arabia joins us, and you'll be greatly honoring me and you'll be greatly honoring all of those people that have fought so hard for the Middle East," Trump told an investment forum in Riyadh.
