Donald Trump

In a lengthy Truth Social post, the president said he was mandatorily requesting that they immediately sign the Abraham Accords, agreements for closer ties with Israel.

If they don't, he said, it shows bad intention.

It was reported to have been met with such a long silence that Mr Trump asked whether the leaders were all still on the line.

They would like to control it.

Nobody's going to control it.

It's international waters and Oman will behave just like everybody else.

So we'll have to blow them up.

They understand that.

They'll be fine.

We're not talking about any easing of sanctions or giving money.

No sanctions, no money, no nothing.

We have control of money that they claim is theirs.

We'll keep control of that money.

When they behave properly and when they do what's right, we'll let them have their money.

I'm not sure we should make the deal.

If they don't sign.

You want to know the truth?

If they don't sign to join the Abraham Accords, I don't know that we, you know, we have countries in there already.

UAE, great, great countries, bold countries.

And it's turned out to be so good, so effective.
