Addressing world leaders during a peace summit in Egypt’s Red Sea resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh, Trump celebrated the treaty as an answer to the prayers of millions and declared that peace in the region had at last been achieved.
“With the historic agreement we’ve just signed, those prayers of millions have finally been answered… Together, we have achieved what everybody said was impossible. At long last, we have peace in the Middle East,” he stated.
Highlighting the scale of the breakthrough, Trump said that beyond ending the war in Gaza, the agreement offers a fresh start for regional stability and unity against terror.
“The momentous breakthrough that we’re here to celebrate tonight is more than the end of the war in Gaza–with God’s help, it will be a new beginning for an entire, beautiful Middle East… we can build a region that’s strong, and stable, and prosperous, and united in rejecting the path of terror once and for all,” the US President said.
Emphasising the need for reconstruction in Gaza, Trump stated that rebuilding efforts must support civilians while avoiding funds tied to violence, adding that Gaza’s reconstruction must go hand in hand with demilitarisation.
