The White House
October 1, 2025

President Donald J. Trump’s groundbreaking plan for peace in Gaza has galvanized a chorus of international praise as the potential pivotal turning point after years of devastating war. Hailed as a game changer by nations across continents, President Trump’s comprehensive framework emphasizes an urgent end to hostilities, the full liberation of all hostages, sustained humanitarian relief, and Gaza’s transformation into a beacon of prosperity.

The visionary plan has been embraced by key leaders from the Arab world to the West:

Joint Statement by the Foreign Ministers of Qatar, Jordan, UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt: “The Foreign Ministers of the State of Qatar, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, the Republic of Indonesia, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, the Republic of Türkiye, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the Arab Republic of Egypt welcome President Donald J. Trump’s leadership and his sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza, and assert their confidence in his ability to find a path to peace. They emphasize the importance of the partnership with the United States in securing peace in the region. Along these lines, the ministers welcome the announcement by President Trump regarding his proposal to end the war, rebuild Gaza, prevent the displacement of the Palestinian people and advance a comprehensive peace, as well as his announcement that he will not allow the annexation of the West Bank. The ministers affirm their readiness to engage positively and constructively with the United States and the parties toward finalizing the agreement and ensuring its implementation, in a manner that ensures peace, security, and stability for the peoples of the region.”

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese: “Australia welcomes President Trump’s plan to bring peace to Gaza after two years of conflict and devastating loss of life.”

Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs: “We welcome the announcement of Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict proposed by the U.S. President Donald J. Trump. A sustainable and just peace requires sincere commitment, mutual trust, and respect for international law. The exchange of prisoners and hostages, and addressing humanitarian needs of the population are vital to pave the way for long-term stabilization and political settlement through building confidence and easing tensions. Only through dialogue and goodwill a long-lasting settlement, with the two-state solution at its core, can be achieved.”

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney: “Canada welcomes President Trump’s historic new Middle East peace plan, and we urge all parties to help it realise its full potential. As the critical next step, Hamas must immediately release all hostages. Canada stands ready to support the sustained, unimpeded, and large-scale delivery of humanitarian aid into and throughout Gaza. We will continue our close coordination with international partners to build a just and lasting peace that builds on today’s progress, with a sovereign, democratic, and viable State of Palestine building its future in peace and security with the State of Israel.”

China: “China welcomes and supports all efforts conducive to easing the tensions between Palestine and Israel, foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Tuesday.”

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen: “Welcome President @realDonaldTrump’s commitment to end the war in Gaza. Encourage all parties to now seize this opportunity. The EU stands ready to contribute.”

European Council President Antonio Costa: “I welcome President @realDonaldTrump’s plan to end the war in Gaza and I am encouraged by Prime Minister @netanyahu’s positive response. All parties must seize this moment to give peace a genuine chance. The situation in Gaza is intolerable. Hostilities must end, and all hostages must be released immediately. The Israeli and Palestinian people deserve to live side by side, in peace and security, free from violence and terrorism. A two-state solution remains the only viable path to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East.”

French President Emmanuel Macron: “I welcome President @realDonaldTrump’s commitment to ending the war in Gaza and securing the release of all hostages. I expect Israel to engage resolutely on this basis. Hamas has no choice but to immediately release all hostages and follow this plan. These elements must pave the way for in-depth discussions with all relevant partners to build a lasting peace in the region, based on the two-state solution and on the principles endorsed by 142 UN member states, at the initiative of France and Saudi Arabia. France stands ready to contribute. It will remain vigilant regarding the commitments of each party.”

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul: “The US peace plan for Gaza offers a unique opportunity to end the terrible war in Gaza. It gives hope to hundreds of thousands of people suffering in Gaza under fierce fighting, appalling captivity as hostages or unimaginable humanitarian conditions. Finally there is hope for Israelis and Palestinians that this war could soon be over. This opportunity must not be missed. Hamas must seize it. I urgently call on all those who can influence Hamas to do so now. I am grateful to US President Donald Trump and his Administration for his intense efforts to end the war. The fact that President Trump is willing to head and chair the Board of Peace shows how serious he is. I would like to thank the Arab states in the region and other Muslim countries that are taking on responsibility and want to facilitate peace in Gaza by providing resources and concrete support.”

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi: “We welcome President Donald J. Trump’s announcement of a comprehensive plan to end the Gaza conflict. It provides a viable pathway to long term and sustainable peace, security and development for the Palestinian and Israeli people, as also for the larger West Asian region. We hope that all concerned will come together behind President Trump’s initiative and support this effort to end conflict and secure peace.”

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni: “The proposal presented today by the President of the United States, Donald Trump, may be a turning point in this process, allowing for a permanent cessation of the hostilities, the immediate release of all the hostages and full and safe humanitarian access for the civilian population to be achieved. The Plan, which Italy welcomes, presents an ambitious project for the stabilisation, reconstruction and development of the Gaza Strip, with the full involvement of regional partners. In this context, Italy is ready to do its part, in close coordination with the United States and European and regional partners, and it thanks President Trump for the mediation work and his efforts to bring peace to the Middle East.”

Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba: “I highly welcome President @realDonaldTrump’s leadership and efforts to end Gaza conflict and achieve peace. This is a significant step toward a two-state solution including a ceasefire, improving the humanitarian situation, and releasing hostages. We expect all parties concerned to proceed in accordance with this plan.”

Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev: “President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s press secretary, Ruslan Zheldibay, cited him as saying that Astana viewed the plan as a ‘unique opportunity and a crucial step’ toward resolving the situation in the region. Zheldibay added that the plan could also strengthen interstate trust and establish a lasting and just peace in the region.”

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun: “The President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, announced his welcome of the plan by U.S. President Donald Trump to stop the war in Gaza. He commended the efforts made to end the suffering of civilians and the innocent in the sector, to stop the bloodshed, and to work together for a stable and prosperous Middle East, based on the principles of human justice and dignity. Expressing his hope that this plan will gain the approval of those concerned as soon as possible, the President praises the realistic approach it adopted in addressing contentious and problematic issues.”

New Zealand Minister of Foreign Affairs Winston Peters: “In our speech to the UN General Assembly over the weekend, we said: ‘We desperately want diplomacy to succeed and we believe it is those countries with leverage who are most likely to achieve a breakthrough. That would show global leadership.’ New Zealand therefore welcomes the United States’ ‘Comprehensive Plan to End the Conflict in Gaza’ as an example of such global leadership. We urge the parties to seize this important opportunity to end the conflict and implement the terms of the proposal fully. New Zealand wants to see an immediate end to this disastrous conflict.”

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif: “I welcome President Trump’s 20-point plan to ensure an end to the war in Gaza. I am also convinced that durable peace between the Palestinian people and Israel would be essential in bringing political stability and economic growth to the region. It is also my firm belief that President Trump is fully prepared to assist in whatever way necessary to make this extremely important and urgent understanding to become a reality. I laud President Trump’s leadership and the vital role played by Special Envoy Steve Witkoff in bringing an end to this war. I also strongly believe that the implementation of the two state proposal is essential to ensure lasting peace in the region.”

Palestinian Authority: The Palestinian Authority “welcomes the sincere and determined efforts of President Donald J. Trump to end the war on Gaza and affirms its confidence in his ability to find a path toward peace. It also underscores the importance of the partnership with the United States in achieving peace in the region.”

Spanish President Pedro Sanchez: “Spain welcomes the peace proposal for Gaza promoted by the United States. We must put an end to so much suffering. It is time for the violence to cease, for the immediate release of all the hostages to take place, and for humanitarian aid to be provided to the civilian population. The two-State solution, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security, is the only possible one.”

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan: “I commend US President Donald Trump’s efforts and leadership aimed at halting the bloodshed in Gaza and achieving a ceasefire. Türkiye will continue to contribute to the process with a view to establishing a just and lasting peace acceptable to all parties.”

United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer: “The new US initiative to deliver an end to the war in Gaza is profoundly welcome and I am grateful for President Trump’s leadership. We strongly support his efforts to end the fighting, release the hostages and ensure the provision of urgent humanitarian assistance for the people of Gaza. This is our top priority and should happen immediately. We call on all sides to come together and to work with the US administration to finalise this agreement and bring it into reality. Hamas should now agree to the plan and end the misery, by laying down their arms and releasing all remaining hostages. Together with our partners, we will continue work to build consensus to put into place a permanent ceasefire. We are all committed to a collective effort to end the war in Gaza and deliver a sustainable peace, where Palestinians and Israelis can live side by side in safety and security.”
