The Abraham Accords: A Regional Realignment or Betrayal of the Palestinian Cause?
In August 2020, a groundbreaking announcement changed the dynamics of Middle Eastern geopolitics — the signing of the Abraham Accords, a series of agreements normalizing diplomatic relations between Israel and several Arab nations.
