  • President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump are both claiming credit for Israel and Hamas agreeing to a ceasefire deal in Gaza after the White House brought Trump's Middle East envoy into negotiations that have dragged on for months.

The article from MSN discusses how both former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden are taking credit for a ceasefire deal in Gaza. Trump, speaking at a rally in New York, claimed that his administration's policies, including the Abraham Accords, laid the groundwork for the ceasefire, asserting that his approach to Middle Eastern peace was instrumental. Conversely, Biden's administration highlights his diplomatic efforts, including direct engagement with Israeli and Palestinian leaders, as key to achieving the ceasefire. The deal, which includes a temporary halt in hostilities and the exchange of hostages for prisoners, is seen as a step towards de-escalation, though both leaders' claims are met with skepticism regarding their direct impact on the negotiations.
