In President-elect Donald Trump's second post on his platform Truth Social after Israeli and Hamas officials confirmed the ceasefire deal, he boasted the "epic" agreement could have only happened as a result of his historic victory in November as it "signaled to the entire World that my Administration would seek Peace and negotiate deals to ensure the safety of all Americans, and our Allies."

Trump said he's thrilled American and Israeli hostages will return to be united with their families and loved ones. 

With the deal in place, Trump said his national security team through the efforts of Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff "will continue to work closely with Israel and our Allies to make sure Gaza NEVER again becomes a terrorist safe haven."

"We will continue promoting PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH throughout the region, as we build upon the momentum of this ceasefire to further expand the Historic Abraham Accords," Trump wrote. "This is only the beginning of great things to come for America, and indeed, the World!"

Trump said his team "achieved so much" without even being in the White House.

He continued, "just imagine all of the wonderful things that will happen when I return to the White House, and my Administration is fully confirmed, so they can secure more Victories for the United States!"
