00:00Now here's my vision for the broader Middle East.
00:05It's also shaped in part by what we saw in the aftermath of World War II.
00:12After that war, America forged a security alliance in Europe to counter the growing Soviet threat.
00:20Likewise, America and Israel today can forge a security alliance in the Middle East to counter the growing Iranian threat.
00:28All countries that are at peace with Israel and all those countries who will make peace with Israel should be invited to join this alliance.
00:38We saw a glimpse of that potential alliance on April 14th.
00:45Led by the United States, more than half a dozen nations worked alongside Israel to help neutralize hundreds of missiles and drones launched by Iran against us.
00:56Thank you, President Biden, for bringing that coalition together.
01:14The new alliance, I envision, would be a natural extension of the groundbreaking Abraham Accords.
01:21Those Accords saw peace forged between Israel and four Arab countries, and they were supported by Republicans and Democrats alike.
01:30We could call – I have a name for this new alliance.
01:37I think we should call it the Abraham Alliance.
01:40I want to thank President Trump for his leadership in brokering the historic Abraham Accords.
