WP: UAE's role undermines Trump's Saudi nuclear connection
The article focused on the United States' approach and President Donald Trump's stance regarding linking Saudi Arabia's civilian nuclear program to its normalization agreements with Israel, such as the Abraham Accords. The Emirati experience demonstrated that the outcomes of these policies are varied, with security and economic relations with Israel continuing, but accompanied by a decline in popular enthusiasm and increased regional tensions. The report also noted that escalation of the Israeli wars in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran deepens negative sentiments toward Israel, making the future of the Abraham Accords more uncertain—especially as popular support wanes and security challenges grow. Experts emphasized that Netanyahu's efforts to restrict the implementation of these agreements hinder their benefits, despite Israeli defense support to the UAE. Some countries, like Pakistan, remain opposed to normalization until a Palestinian state is established. The article pointed out that these agreements have yielded limited diplomatic and security gains; Arab publics have become less enthusiastic about normalization after repeated crises, and some Jewish religious institutions in the UAE have closed, with a rising sense of frustration over the war in Gaza.
