"We, the undersigned, welcome the truly historic commitment and implementation by all parties to the Trump Peace Agreement, ending more than two years of profound suffering and loss opening a new chapter for the region defined by hope, security, and a shared vision for peace and prosperity. 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 proclamation also does not point the finger at Palestinians as the cause of the conflict in the way that successive US administrations have. Notably, it reframes the struggle in Gaza as part of the broader Palestinian question. The Trump administration has previously avoided even describing the residents of Gaza as Palestinian. However, the statement does not explicitly acknowledge Palestinians' right to statehood and self-determination."
Leaders of Egypt, Qatar, Turkiye and the United States issued a joint proclamation endorsing a Gaza ceasefire and committing to enduring regional peace. The proclamation affirms equal rights for Palestinians and Israelis while refraining from assigning blame to Palestinians for the conflict. The proclamation reframes Gaza's struggle as part of the broader Palestinian question and acknowledges Gaza residents as Palestinian in contrast to prior U.S. practice. The proclamation stops short of explicitly recognizing Palestinian statehood or a right to self-determination. The document was signed by Trump, Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
