Malliotakis Statement on Hostage Release & Trump Peace Deal

(NEW YORK, NY) – Today, Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis (NY-11) released the following statement:

"Today is an historic day as all remaining living hostages are released by Hamas after a long two years. President Trump’s peace deal is underway and later today he will gather the leaders of the most powerful countries in the world to meet in Egypt to discuss next steps for regional peace. In his first term, President Trump was the architect of the historic Abraham Accords. Now, once again, he’s bringing peaceful solutions to the Middle East and elsewhere. This term, he’s helped broker peace between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Cambodia and Thailand, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, India and Pakistan, Egypt and Ethiopia, and Serbia and Kosovo. President Trump is a real dealmaker and leader with the strength, power and chutzpah to deliver lasting peace."
