The United States, Egypt, Qatar and Turkey signed a declaration on Monday to guarantee a ceasefire deal aimed at ending two years of war in Gaza. The agreement was signed during an international summit
hosted by Egypt in the Red Sea resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh.
US President Donald Trump, who attended the summit, described the deal as “a very strong agreement” and expressed confidence in its durability.
“The document is going to spell out rules and regulations and lots of other things,” Trump said before putting his signature on the declaration. “It’s going to hold up,” he added, repeating the phrase for emphasis.
The signed document outlines commitments from all four nations to act as guarantors of the ceasefire, and to support measures aimed at ensuring lasting peace in Gaza.
