According to Trump's announcement via Truth Social, the agreement paves the way for Gaza to be governed by a new Palestinian government. This new administration, he said, would work closely with his "Board of Peace" to assist the Palestinian people. Simultaneously, Israel would achieve the security it deserves, ensuring Gaza is no longer used as a base for terrorist attacks.

The "Board of Peace," an international organization established by Trump for peace in Gaza, is envisioned as a significant governing body. Trump had previously outlined a 20-point plan for Gaza's peace and reconstruction, aiming for this board to govern the region until the end of 2027. He has also suggested expanding its role to potentially replace the United Nations.

At the same time, Israel will secure the security it deserves, as Gaza will no longer be used as a base for terrorist attacks.

Trump detailed that upon completion of the disarmament, Israeli forces would withdraw. An international stabilization force would then collaborate with a new Palestinian police force to ensure the safety of Gaza's residents and neighboring areas. He extended gratitude to Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey for their crucial mediation roles and expressed deep appreciation for his team's efforts in achieving this "historic breakthrough," vowing never to allow the threats seen on October 7th to re-emerge.

Upon completion of the disarmament, Israeli forces will withdraw, and an international stabilization force will cooperate with the new Palestinian police to ensure the safety of the residents of Gaza and neighboring areas.
