President Donald Trump on Friday announced a deal between Israel and Bahrain to normalize relations in a bid for peace in the Middle East.

“The second Arab country to make peace with Israel in 30 days,” he wrote on Twitter. Last month, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) agreed to normalize relations between it and Israel.
