This day is a pivot of history. It heralds a new dawn of peace. For thousands of years, the Jewish people have prayed for peace. For decades, the Jewish state has prayed for peace.
The people of Israel well know the price of war.

I know the price of war. For those who bear the wounds of war cherish the blessings of peace. And the blessings of the peace we make today will be enormous.

This is not only a peace between leaders, it's a peace between peoples—Israelis, Emiratis and Bahrainis are already embracing one another.

I have worked to make Israel strong, very strong, for history has taught us that strength brings security, strength brings allies and ultimately—and this is something President Trump has said again and again—ultimately strength brings peace.

This week is Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, and what a blessing we bring to this new year, a blessing of friendship, a blessing of hope, a blessing of peace.

I am grateful to you, President Trump, for your decisive leadership. You have unequivocally stood by Israel's side.

You have boldly confronted the tyrants of Tehran. You've proposed a realistic vision for peace between Israel and the Palestinians. And you have successfully brokered the historic peace that we are signing today.

I am grateful to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed of the United Arab Emirates and to Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed. I thank you both for your wise leadership and for working with the U.S. and Israel to expand the circle of peace.

I am grateful to King Hamad of Bahrain and to Foreign Minister Abdullatif Al-Zayani, for joining us in bringing hope to all the children of Abraham.
