This Is A Big Day!' Trump Celebrates Hostage Deal In Friday Night Oval Office Statement
"I want to thank the countries that helped me put this together. Qatar, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, and so many others. So many people fought so hard. This is a big day! We'll see how it all turns out. We have to get the final word down in concrete. Very importantly, I look forward to having the hostages come home to their parents and having some of the hostages, unfortunately, you know the condition they're in, come home likewise to their parents."
"Because their parents wanted them just as much as though that young man or young woman were alive. So I just want to let you know that this is a very special day! Maybe unprecedented, in many ways it is unprecedented. But thank you all and thank you all to those great countries that helped. We were given a tremendous amount of help. Everybody was unified in wanting this war to end and seeing peace in the Middle East."
News broke that Hamas agreed to release all remaining Israelis taken hostage during the October 7 attacks under conditions. Donald Trump posted on Truth Social saying he believed Hamas was ready for lasting peace and urged Israel to immediately stop bombing Gaza to allow safe, quick hostage releases. Trump delivered an Oval Office statement thanking Qatar, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and others for assistance. He called the day unprecedented, emphasized finalizing details, expressed hope hostages will be reunited with families, warned some hostages may be deceased, and framed the move as progress toward broader Middle East peace.
