Kazakhstan will join the Abraham Accords with Israel in symbolic move to boost the Trump initiative
November 6, 2025
Kazakhstan will join the Abraham Accords between Israel and Arab and Muslim majority countries in a move aimed at boosting the initiative that was a hallmark of President Donald Trump’s first administration. That’s according to three U.S. officials. The move is largely symbolic as Kazakhstan has had diplomatic relations with Israel since 1992 and is much farther geographically from Israel than the other Abraham Accord nations — Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan and the United Arab Emirates. Those countries agreed to normalize relations with Israel as a result. The U.S. officials say Trump will announce the step at a summit he’s hosting Thursday with the leaders of the five Central Asian nations, including Kazakhstan.
