WHY WERE THE EUROPEANS LIKE MACRON AND STARMER IN EGYPT FOR THE SIGNING OF TRUMP'S PEACE AGREEMENT?

US President Donald Trump speaks during a world leaders' summit on ending the Gaza war in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, October 13, 2025.
 
 
President Trump was in Egypt yesterday for the ceremonial signing of his peace agreement.
 
So were the Europeans. Why? The Europeans, like French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, have prolonged the Israel-Hamas war by condemning Israel's conduct in the war and by recognizing a Palestinian state. The Europeans should not have been at the peace conference.

Among the Europeans, both Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer have prolonged the Israel-Hamas war by condemning Israel's conduct in the war and by recognizing a Palestinian state.
 
 
Credit for the agreement belongs solely to President Trump and the mediators Qatar, Turkey and Egypt. It was Trump's 20-point plan that was what the peace conference was all about. The Europeans had absolutely nothing to do with it.
 
 
 
Credit for the agreement belongs solely to President Trump and the mediators Qatar, Turkey and Egypt.
 
 
The window dressing of world leaders at the conference minimizes the role Trump played.in obtaining the agreement. The Europeans should hang their heads in shame for doing the exact opposite of what President Trump accomplished.
