During the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres commended President Donald Trump for his significant contribution to securing a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. Guterres highlighted the robust diplomacy displayed by the then-president elect, which played a crucial role in convincing Israel to agree to the ceasefire just two days before it was reached.
The ceasefire deal, which was agreed upon last week and came into effect on Sunday, has been a subject of contention between the Trump and Biden administrations, with both claiming credit for its success. While Biden officials point to pre-election momentum and previous ceasefire agreements as contributing factors, Trump asserts that his win was instrumental in achieving the agreement.
