US White House Press Secretary Levitt said at the White House press conference on the 23rd that if Saudi Arabia does not join the “Abraham Agreement,” the civil nuclear agreement signed by the US and Saudi Arabia a few days ago will be “annulled.” The US and Saudi energy departments issued separate statements on the 22nd announcing that the two countries have signed a cooperation agreement on the peaceful use of nuclear energy. However, US President Trump posted on social media earlier on the 23rd that the agreement will be approved, but the prerequisite is that Saudi Arabia joins the “Abraham Agreement.” However, this precondition was not mentioned in the previous statements issued by the US and Saudi Arabia. In response to reporters' questions, Levitt reiterated Trump's latest conditions, saying that whether the agreement can take effect “depends” on Saudi Arabia signing the “Abraham Agreement,” stressing that “the president is always the final player.” She said that Trump has communicated with Saudi Arabia on this matter many times and hopes to see Saudi Arabia join the “Abraham Agreement” as soon as possible. Levitt also said that Trump has not talked with Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed since he proposed the new conditions. During Crown Prince Mohammed's visit to the White House in November last year, Trump “strongly requested” Saudi Arabia to join the “Abraham Agreement,” but it was rejected. Crown Prince Mohammed said bluntly that anti-Israeli sentiment within Saudi Arabia has risen as a result of the war in Gaza, and the normalization of relations with Israel will not be accepted at present. The “Abraham Agreement” was an agreement signed by Trump during his first presidential term to “facilitate” the normalization of relations between the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, Morocco and other countries and Israel. Trump has always viewed this as an important “diplomatic achievement.”
