President Trump has introduced a new condition for the nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia, demanding that the kingdom join the Abraham Accords and normalize relations with Israel. This requirement, announced this week, could create a significant roadblock to the agreement his administration had previously announced. The Abraham Accords, brokered during Trump's first term, saw several Arab nations establish diplomatic ties with Israel, but Saudi Arabia has so far refrained from joining. The nuclear deal, which aims to provide Saudi Arabia with civilian nuclear technology, now faces potential delays or derailment as Riyadh may resist the normalization demand. Market participants are closely watching the developments, as any uncertainty around the deal could impact risk appetite and energy sector volatility. The added condition introduces a geopolitical layer that may prolong negotiations, potentially affecting crude oil prices and regional stability.
