Recent peace deal
The announcement comes as Trump continues to spotlight his own international diplomacy. The president has received widespread praise for his recent peace deal between Hamas and Israel.

All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen.
