Kazakhstan's 2025 accession and deepening Israel-Morocco ties, including planned embassy upgrades, demonstrate ongoing expansion momentum, while Oman, Qatar, and Indonesia appear further from formal steps. Upcoming diplomatic engagements and any Houthi-related security coordination could influence timelines before the 2027 cutoff.
