Trump’s Leadership Secured Peace Deal in Gaza
Trump secured release of 20 Israeli hostages and nearly 2,250 Gazan detainees as part of a ceasefire and cooperation with Arab nations to reduce Hamas support.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump was in the Middle East putting the finishing touches on his Gaza peace plan as some two dozen leaders, including Mahmoud Abbas, met in Sharm El‑Sheikh.
- Drawing on trust built through the Abraham Accords, President Trump relied on a step‑by‑step process initiated in his first week to secure support from Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, and other Muslim nations.

- The surviving 20 Israeli hostages are free, giving Israelis and Gaza Palestinians a respite after two years of war, but reports say Hamas is reasserting military control and killing rivals.
- If cooperation endures, a region at peace could become a gateway for trade and transit from Europe to Asia, but Karen DeYoung, New York Times analyst, warns the administration may lack bandwidth to sustain the postwar framework.
