Trump to Visit Egypt for Gaza Peace Talks
President Trump will visit Egypt and Israel for Gaza peace talks. He expressed confidence in the new ceasefire while Israel approved the first phase of the U.S. peace plan. The diplomatic push includes meetings with regional leaders and a Knesset address.
President Donald Trump will travel to Israel and Egypt on Monday. He confirmed the trip during a press briefing. Trump stated he will meet with many leaders in Egypt to discuss Gaza's future. The meeting will likely occur in Cairo, Egypt's capital.
Israel's government approved the first phase of the U.S. Gaza peace plan overnight Thursday. Trump believes the new ceasefire will succeed. He said everyone is tired of the fighting.
The American president will also address Israel's parliament, known as the Knesset. This marks another high-level diplomatic effort in the region. The timing suggests coordinated moves between the U.S. and Middle Eastern partners.
Why now? The visit comes as all sides face pressure to show progress. Regional stability remains fragile despite the ceasefire announcement.
