President Trump on Monday signed a major peace deal in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, in front of more than 20 world leaders, characterizing the moment as the first step towards wider peace in the Middle East, calling on nations to "put the old feuds and bitter hatreds behind us."

"It took us 3,000 years to get to this point," Trump said. He will ensure that peace will become the new norm in the region.

"After two harrowing years in darkness and captivity, 20 courageous hostages are returning to the glorious embrace of their families," Trump said. "Twenty-eight more precious loved ones are coming home at last to rest in this sacred soil for all of time. And after so many years of unceasing war and endless danger, today the skies are calm, the guns are silent, the sirens are still, and the sun rises on a Holy Land that is finally at peace."

"This is not only the end of a war. This is the end of an age of terror and death, the beginning of the age of faith and hope and of God," Trump said. 

The President's speech in Egypt came shortly after he addressed the Knesset in Israel, where he received a standing ovation from Israeli officials, and encouraged Israel's president, Isaac Herzog, to pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
