The western hype over Abraham Accords is evident from their exploitation of the overused phrase “historical moment” in international relations. A shift in Arab-Israeli relations has  been stamped with the signing of Abraham Accords, whereby the Arab veto over the recognition  of the Palestinian state, in return for Israeli recognition, is practically over.

Despite the commitment  to halt further settlements, Palestine is the ultimate victim. The two-state solution, in spirit, is all but buried. Comprehensive peace processes are multi-level and multi-layered and involve pragmatic efforts to build the widest consensus possible around a shared future.
