Key takeaways

  • Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Monday voiced support for President Trump s proposal that Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Gulf states join the Abraham Accords as part of the U.S.
  • Graham called the expansion simply brilliant adding that it would result in the most significant change in the Middle East in thousands of years.
  • I expect our Arab allies to embrace this, as well as our friends in Israel, focusing on this task as failure is not an option — which would be a correct analysis, he added.

Why this matters: political developments that affect policy direction and public trust.
