"This trip was to visit the UAE, Bahrain Israel — signatories to the Abraham Accords — as well as Saudi Arabia, and better understand how we might do more to strengthen, reinforce and expand the Abraham Accords in the future, and better understand the issues today affecting the countries that are a part of that future."

"In a bipartisan spirit of Congress, we would like to see all the Gulf states, including Kuwait and Qatar, as well as eventually Iran be-ing able to have a normalised relationship with Israel. The result will clearly be an economic success for the Middle East...We expect that leaders in the Middle East are going to stand up and define their own future," added Nunn.

On June 13, Israel launched an attack on Iran, killing its senior military leadership and also targeting its nuclear and military installations. The war entered its sixth day on Wednesday with US President Donald Trump asking Iran to surrender, but Iranian leadership rejecting the call.
