Donald Trump and Egyptian president Abdel Fattah al-Sisi will co-host a summit of more than 20 world leaders in Sharm El Sheikh on Monday, after the US president first visits Israel to speak at the Knesset and meet families of the hostages.

The summit’s aim is “to end the war in the Gaza Strip, enhance efforts to achieve peace and stability in the Middle East, and usher in a new era of regional security and stability”, according to the Egyptian presidency.

The impressive aims of the meeting are matched by a similarly impressive guest list, many of whom have played a vital role in securing the ceasefire and hostage release deal that is currently in place.

The continuing success of the deal – and how closely the next stages match up to Trump’s 20-point peace plan – are all expected to be up for discussions at Monday’s meeting.

Who is going to the Gaza ‘peace summit’?
Donald Trump

The US president will be seeking to advance his peace, with several crucial elements – including how Gaza is to be ruled when fighting ends, and the ultimate fate of Hamas – still unconfirmed. Still, Trump is riding high on his current successes, telling reporters on Sunday “the war is over”.

Abdel Fattah al-Sisi

Egypt has played a leading role in negotiations between Israel and Hamas over the course of the two-year conflict. Al-Sisi’s invitation for Trump to take a “victory lap” of the region will help ensure the ceasefire sticks, a source told Reuters.

Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani

Qatar’s Emir was reportedly among the Arab leaders pushing to bind Trump to the peace process, hoping that tying it to the president would help ensure its success.

Mahmoud Abbas

Trump’s peace plan left open the possibility of a role for Abbas’s Palestinian Authority in Gaza – contingent on various reforms – but Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected such an idea.

PP will mess up the ground for a future generation to build up a democratic Ethiopia.
They messed up and mishandled relationships with Somalia. And they are in the process of mishandling the Assab issue. God knows what they have signed with Egypt.
A mess every where economically and diplomatically.
Just look at the Tigray issues. After 3 major wars that produced a phony field Marshall, the TPLF has regrouped and rearmed for a major push.
Catastrophe.
