Kazakhstan has given its preliminary approval to join the "Abraham Accords", becoming the first country to join them during Donald Trump's second presidential term, according to the Kazakh news agency "Kazinform".
This announcement came after a joint phone call at the White House between Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, US President Donald Trump, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Kazakh presidential press service "Akorda" reported.
In a statement posted on the "Truth Social" platform, the US President described the talks as a major step forward and confirmed that an official signing ceremony will be held soon.
In turn, "Akorda" quoted President Tokayev as confirming that his country's accession aims to reduce confrontations and enhance dialogue, explaining that this step is a natural extension of its multi-vector diplomacy and does not affect its bilateral commitments with any country.
These developments are part of President Tokayev's official visit to Washington, where he held talks with the American president at the White House. The latter confirmed the United States' commitment to strengthening its comprehensive strategic partnership with Kazakhstan, according to "Kazinform".
The two sides also welcomed the signing of trade agreements between the two countries worth over $17 billion, as well as a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in critical minerals.
