The US president urges Middle Eastern leaders to break free from conflict.
US President Donald Trump says his ceasefire deal in Gaza will bring peace to the Middle East.
About 20 world leaders, including Trump, signed the agreement at a special summit in Egypt on Monday.
The agreement outlines the steps Hamas and Israel must take to maintain the ceasefire and end the war in Gaza.
But it doesn’t fully address the larger question of what will happen to the Palestinian territories in the coming months.
What about a larger Israeli occupation? Establishing a viable Palestinian state?
How would Trump’s plan address these important issues?
