Donald Trump's phone call with Muslim leaders about ending the Iran war included talks of a much broader peace plan in the region, a report revealed Sunday.
The President asked several Middle Eastern countries on Saturday to enter peace agreements with Israel by signing onto the Abraham Accords, according to Axios.
The leaders of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, Bahrain and Jordan were on the line with Trump when he made his reported request for them to sign onto the historic agreement.
The main goal would be to broker a peace agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel, the outlet added.
Trump told the Arab world leaders that his next phone call would be to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
He added that he hoped Netanyahu would join them on a call in the near future.
When Trump's request was met with silence, the US President jokingly asked the Middle Eastern leaders if they were still on the line, Axios reported.
Trump told the Gulf leaders that his envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff would follow up over the coming weeks, per the report.

Kushner and Witkoff have led negotiations for the US in the most significant global conflicts during Trump's second administration, including Iran, Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Gaza.
The Abraham Accords, which sought to normalize several Arab states' relationships with Israel, were a key milestone of the first Trump administration.
Nations that have signed on so far include Bahrain, Morocco, the UAE and Sudan, as well as Israel.
On Sunday morning, Trump addressed his desire for more Middle Eastern states to sign peace agreements with Israel.
'I would like to thank, thus far, all of the countries of the Middle East for their support and cooperation, which will be further enhanced and strengthened by their joining the Nations of the historic Abraham Accords,' Trump wrote on Truth Social.
He added: 'Who knows, perhaps the Islamic Republic of Iran would like to join, as well!'
Trump also said the US relationship with Iran was 'becoming a much more professional and productive one.'
However, he urged Iran to 'understand' that it could not develop a nuclear weapon or bomb.

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close ally of Trump, said that the deal would be 'one of the most consequential in the history of the Middle East' if confirmed.
'Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Pakistan joining the Abraham Accords would be beyond transformative for the region and world,' Graham wrote on X.
'It is a brilliant move by President Trump,' he added.
The Republican lawmaker urged the Arab countries to join the Abraham Accords and be 'bold for the future of a new Middle East.'
However, Graham also cautioned against turning down Trump's proposal.
'If you refuse to go down this path as suggested by President Trump, it will have severe repercussions for our future relationships and make this peace proposal unacceptable,' he said.
'Further, it would be seen by history as a major miscalculation,' Graham wrote.
Trump announced yesterday afternoon that the Iranian peace agreement was 'largely negotiated' but still 'subject to finalization.'
'In addition to many other elements of the Agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened,' he said on Truth Social.
Mohammed bin Zayed, the president of the UAE, was among the Muslim leaders who told Trump they supported the deal to end the war, according to Axios.

The US President also noted that he had a phone call with Netanyahu which 'went very well.'
However, Trump did not reveal any other details about his conversation with the Israeli PM.
Iran would agree to give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, though the exact nature of how this would happen would be discussed during a 60-day period, according to the Associated Press.
An agreement would also mean that the strait would gradually reopen and that the US would end its blockade, the outlet added.
Iran would reportedly be allowed to sell its oil through sanctions waivers.
On Sunday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained 'significant progress, although not final progress, has been made' in negotiations.
Rubio also said the 'first stage' in the deal would be the full reopening of the strait.
'The second is that Iran needs to enter into serious negotiations on three topics: their pledge never to have nuclear weapons, restrictions long-term on their enrichment capabilities, and what do you do with the highly enriched uranium?' he told India Today.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei had told the state-run news agency there were 'narrowing differences' between Iran and the US.
However, Baghaei said Iran was cautious after being attacked twice in the past year during nuclear negotiations.
