Biden and Clinton Commend Trump‘s Role in Securing Gaza Ceasefire
SHARM AL-SHEIKH, EGYPT – October 14, 2025 - In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden and former President Bill Clinton have publicly praised former President Donald Trump’s previously undisclosed diplomatic efforts that contributed to the brokering of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The acknowledgment came following a summit held in Sharm al-Sheikh,Egypt,where details of the agreement where finalized.
The ceasefire, which went into effect earlier today, marks a significant, albeit fragile, step toward ending the recent escalation of violence in the Gaza Strip. The agreement includes the release of hostages held by Hamas, a phased withdrawal of Israeli forces, and the establishment of a framework for ongoing negotiations toward a lasting peace. While the details remain sensitive, sources indicate Trump engaged in back-channel communications with key regional players in the weeks leading up to the breakthrough, leveraging existing relationships to facilitate dialog.
The summit in Sharm al-Sheikh,initially convened to address humanitarian concerns in Gaza,quickly evolved into a forum for solidifying the ceasefire terms. President Biden lauded Trump’s “unexpected but valuable contribution,” stating that his involvement “helped to create the necessary conditions for a productive dialogue.” Clinton echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of bipartisan cooperation in achieving peace.
the hostage handover,described by observers as “a moment of healing,” is expected to commence within 24 hours. Israeli officials have expressed cautious optimism, while Hamas representatives have signaled their commitment to upholding the agreement. Despite the positive developments, concerns remain regarding the long-term stability of the ceasefire and the potential for renewed conflict. Discussions are already underway regarding a broader peace initiative, with Tel aviv reportedly considering new approaches to resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
