Trump declares 'peace in the Middle East' during Egypt speech

At a peace summit in Egypt, Donald Trump declared an end to the war in Gaza, announcing that a ceasefire was in effect and "we have peace in the Middle East." He confirmed that humanitarian aid is now pouring into the region, adding that wealthy countries present at the summit would pay for Gaza's reconstruction. Trump also used the platform to urge more nations to join the Abraham Accords, his signature normalization deals between Arab countries and Israel. Notably, no Palestinian representatives were on stage, and Trump referred to Palestinians only as the "people of Gaza" while Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas sat in the audience.
