In a landmark moment for the Middle East, US President Donald Trump commended the United Arab Emirates and other regional partners for their instrumental role in achieving a historic peace agreement to end the war in Gaza. Speaking before world leaders in Egypt, Trump described the breakthrough as a “new and beautiful day” for the region.
“This is the day that people across the region and around the world have been working, striving, hoping and praying for,” Trump said. “They have done things over the last month that I think were really unthinkable. Nobody thought this could happen.”
The President highlighted the immediate benefits of the ceasefire, including the arrival of humanitarian aid. “The war in Gaza is over,” he said. “Hundreds of truckloads of food, medical equipment, and other critical supplies are now reaching people in need.”

Trump credited several Arab and Islamic nations for their support, singling out the UAE, Egypt, Türkiye, and Qatar for their efforts. He particularly thanked Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi for hosting the event and leading a crucial role in fostering dialogue.
The President painted the agreement as more than just a truce. “With God’s help, this will be the new beginning for an entire beautiful Middle East,” he said. “From this moment forward, we can build a region that’s strong, stable, and prosperous, united in rejecting the path of terror once and for all.”
Analysts note that this agreement could mark a turning point in regional diplomacy, potentially opening doors for renewed cooperation, trade, and development projects across Gaza and neighboring countries. While challenges remain, the momentum created by this historic accord is being hailed as a rare success in Middle East peacemaking.
