Azerbaijani MP voices doubts over Azerbaijan’s potential accession to the Abraham Accords

"First of all, they (Abraham Accords) were previously signed by Israel with Semitic Arab states with which it had no diplomatic relations. Essentially, they have not progressed beyond mutual recognition and the establishment of diplomatic relations, whereas Azerbaijani-Israeli relations have gone much further than these Abraham Accords. Therefore, Azerbaijan likely has no need to sign them when we already have full diplomatic and trade-economic relations with Israel, covering sensitive areas such as security," Azerbaijani MP Rasim Musabayov said, as cited by the local news website Caliber.

"As for proposals regarding some trilateral format or an expanded Abraham Accords involving the U.S., this raises questions. Such an agreement would undoubtedly be perceived by Iran and Türkiye as being directed against them. This will not enhance Azerbaijan's security, but rather create additional tension in the region. So, I don't see much sense in this for Azerbaijan. Most likely, Baku will continue to develop relations with Israel in a bilateral format. In cases where we can offer good services to our ally Türkiye and our strategic partner Israel to reduce tension and resolve misunderstandings, I believe Azerbaijan will do so," Musabayov emphasized.
