President Trump and the leaders of Egypt, Turkey, and Qatar signed a document on the Gaza ceasefire deal during a summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, on Monday.
“It’s going to hold up,” President Trump said as he signed the document. According to a release from the White House, the document was a declaration that stated the signatories welcomed the “implementation by all parties to the Trump Peace Agreement.”
The declaration included several platitudes about committing to a peace deal, but it does not say how a long-term ceasefire will be implemented, as many details of the agreement still need to be worked out in negotiations between Israel and Hamas.
“We support and stand behind President Trump’s sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza and bring lasting peace to the Middle East,” the declaration says. “Together, we will implement this agreement in a manner that ensures peace, security, stability, and opportunity for all peoples of the region, including both Palestinians and Israelis.”
