President Trump said Friday he plans to visit Egypt and Israel during a one-day trip to the Middle East early next week to mark the implementation of a peace agreement that will see a pause in fighting in Gaza and the release of dozens of hostages.
Trump told reporters he will visit Cairo while in Egypt, and he plans to speak at the Knesset, Israel’s parliament. He indicated many other world leaders would be in attendance. The president is expected to depart Sunday evening, spend Monday in the Middle East then fly back to Washington, D.C.
Trump indicated he wants to get back to the White House for a Tuesday ceremony to award Charlie Kirk, the late conservative activist, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
