US president says he ended ‘granddaddy’ of wars, as leaders sign 462-word memo

We the undersigned welcome the truly historic commitment and implementation of all parties to the Trump Peace Agreement, which ends more than two years of deep suffering and loss and opens a new chapter for the region defined by hope, security and a shared vision of peace and prosperity.

We support and stand behind President Trump’s sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza and bring lasting peace to the Middle East. Together, we will implement this agreement to ensure peace, security, stability and opportunity for all peoples of the region, including Palestinians and Israelis.

We understand that a lasting peace will be one in which the basic human rights of both Palestinians and Israelis are protected, their security is guaranteed, and their dignity is preserved.

We affirm that meaningful progress will emerge through cooperation and sustained dialogue, and that strengthening ties between nations and peoples serves the enduring interests of regional and global peace and stability.

We recognize the deep historical and spiritual significance of this region for faith communities (including Christianity, Islam and Judaism) whose roots are intertwined with the territory of the region. Respect for these sacred connections and the protection of their heritage sites will remain paramount to our commitment to peaceful coexistence.

We are united in our determination to eliminate all forms of extremism and radicalization. No society can thrive when violence and racism become normalized or when radical ideologies threaten the fabric of civil life. We commit to addressing the conditions that enable extremism and promoting education, opportunity and mutual respect as the foundations of lasting peace.

We are committed to resolving future disputes through diplomatic engagement and negotiation rather than force or protracted conflict. We recognize that the Middle East cannot endure a protracted cycle of war, stalled negotiations, or fragmented, incomplete or selective implementation of successfully negotiated terms. The tragedies witnessed over the past two years should serve as an urgent reminder that future generations deserve better than the failures of the past.

We seek tolerance, dignity and equal opportunity for all; We ensure that this region is a place where everyone, regardless of race, faith or ethnicity, can pursue their aspirations in peace, security and economic prosperity.

We pursue a comprehensive vision of peace, security and shared prosperity in the region, based on the principles of mutual respect and common destiny.

In this spirit, we welcome the progress made in establishing comprehensive and lasting peace arrangements in the Gaza Strip, as well as the friendly and mutually beneficial relations between Israel and its regional neighbors. We pledge to work together to implement and sustain this legacy, building the institutional foundations on which future generations can develop together in peace.

We are committed to the future of lasting peace.
