Donald Trump, Middle Eastern Leaders Sign Peace Agreement in Historic Egypt Summit Flanked by World Leaders
A Moment of Unity
President Donald Trump joined nearly two dozen world leaders in a show of solidarity during the signing ceremony for the Middle East Peace Agreement — a historic first step toward reconciliation between Israel and Hamas.
Sharm el-Sheikh Ceremony
The signing took place in Sharm el-Sheikh, where Trump stood alongside Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Qatar’s Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The event followed Trump’s widely praised speech to the Israeli Knesset in Tel Aviv just hours earlier.
Global Witnesses
Among the international guests were Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Trump acknowledged their presence, calling them “the greatest, most powerful, and richest leaders,” adding with characteristic candor, “It might not be politically correct, but it’s true.”
Trump on the Deal
The former president highlighted the shared determination of those involved, noting, “They came together because they wanted to get Gaza straightened out.” He described the response to the agreement as overwhelmingly positive — “This one took off like a rocket ship.”
Overcoming Doubts
Trump admitted that peace in the Middle East had long seemed impossible, calling it “the biggest, most complicated deal.” Yet, despite skepticism, the first phase had been completed successfully.
Photo Ops and Final Remarks
Before and after the ceremony, Trump posed with world leaders and reaffirmed that the initial Israel–Hamas documents had been signed — marking the beginning of a new era in regional diplomacy.
