The White House

We had a very weak administration.

There was a hatred towards Israel.

All of the countries in the Middle East that could have what we’re doing now, it could have happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and then Joe Biden.

We are not going to deal with people that fight.

The tariffs have brought peace to the world, I’m telling you. They have brought peace to the world.

Doesn't want Depression for his country, and neither do I.

Some vaccines are not controversial at all. And I think those vaccines should be used.

You have vaccines that work. They just pure and simple work.

The road to this deal was not easy. My Administration worked relentlessly to bring hostages home, get relief to Palestinian civilians, and end the war. I commend President Trump and his team for their work to get a renewed ceasefire deal…

The long and painful nightmare is finally over.

The Nile is so beautiful, so magnificent.

They had a very important role with Hamas.

It took 3,000 years to get to this point. Can you believe it?

This is the day that people across the region and around the world have been working, striving, hoping and prayed for.

I'm pleased to announce that numerous countries of great wealth and power and dignity have come forward to me just today and over the last week to say they want to help in the reconstruction of Gaza, putting up whatever money is necessary.

The president convinced the entire Muslim world really, both the Gulf Arab states, but as far in Southeast Asia as Indonesia, to really step up and provide ground troops so that Gaza could be secured in safety.

We think that the Arab countries, the Muslim-majority countries, are going to step up in a big way with troops on the ground.

It's a big day for their families, but I think, more importantly, it's a big day for the entire world.

We want the government to reopen, but Chuck Schumer and the Democrats decided to shut down the government, and we have to deal with the consequences in the administration.

We're going to continue to play our mediation role. And I think that's a very, very good place for all of us to be.

It is going to take consistent leverage and consistent pressure from the president of the United States on down.

The president was criticized for it. The diplomatic team was criticized for it. But I think that, because he chose a different pathway, we are now on the cusp of a sustainable peace in the Middle East.

We feel very confident the hostages will be released, and that the president is actually traveling to the Middle East likely this evening in order to meet them and greet them in person.

Do they want to have Tomahawks going in their direction? I don’t think so.
