Earlier, Trump praised the UAE’s significant role in supporting his peace plan to end the war in Gaza.
On Monday, Trump was in Egypt’s resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh to co-chair a summit on peace in the Middle East. Trump and leaders of Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey signed a comprehensive document on the ceasefire deal.
He declared “peace in the Middle East” in his speech to a gathering of world leaders in Egypt to inaugurate his plan to end the war in Gaza. Trump called the agreement that led to a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of hostages held by Hamas “a triumph” as he thanked mediators from the Arab and Muslim world.
“The momentous breakthrough that we’re here to celebrate tonight is more than the end of the war in Gaza. It’s, with God’s help, the new beginning for an entire beautiful Middle East,” Trump said. “From this moment forward, we can build a region that’s strong, stable, prosperous, and united in rejecting the path of terror once and for all,” he added.
Trump expressed his gratitude to the Arab and Islamic countries that supported the agreement, most notably the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Türkiye, and Qatar.
