Netanyahu: This is a pivot of history, a new dawn of peace

Netanyahu speaks next, hailing the “historic day.”

“This day is a pivot of history. It heralds a new dawn of peace,” says Netanyahu.

He thanks Trump for his “decisive leadership” and for his positions on Iran and the peace process.

“You’ve successfully brokered the historic peace we are signing today, a peace that has broad support in Israel, in the Middle East, in America — indeed, in the entire world,” says Netanyahu.

The deal is “bringing hope to all the children of Abraham.”

“To all of Israel’s friends in the Middle East, those who are with us today and those who will join us tomorrow, I say salaam alaikum,” adds Netanyahu.

Other countries will follow, says Netanyahu. “This [was] unimaginable a few years ago, but with resolve, determination, a fresh look at how peace is done,” it is happening, says Netanyahu. “Thank you, Mr. President.”
