Former President Joe Biden took to social media to acknowledge President Donald Trump’s contribution to the recent Gaza ceasefire agreement. This breakthrough followed a brutal conflict sparked by Hamas’s attacks on Israel in late 2023, leading to international calls for peace.

Biden recognized the “challenging” nature of the negotiation process and lauded the efforts of both administrations, including Trump’s team, for ultimately bringing a renewed ceasefire deal to fruition.
He expressed relief that surviving hostages were released and noted the steps toward peace could build a future with “equal measures of peace, dignity, and safety” for Israelis and Palestinians alike.

The statement coincided with Trump’s diplomatic visits to the region, underscoring a moment of cooperation amid the political tensions between the two former presidents.
