Trump Hails UN Vote Backing His Gaza Peace Plan: “A Moment of True Historic Proportion”

President Donald Trump on Monday celebrated the United Nations Security Council’s approval of a resolution supporting his sweeping 20-point plan for Gaza, calling it one of the most significant diplomatic milestones in UN history.

“Congratulations to the World on the incredible Vote of the United Nations Security Council, just moments ago, acknowledging and endorsing the BOARD OF PEACE, which will be chaired by me, and include the most powerful and respected Leaders throughout the World,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, moments after the vote.

He praised the international backing his plan received, noting, “This will go down as one of the biggest approvals in the History of the United Nations, will lead to further Peace all over the World, and is a moment of true Historic proportion! Thank you to the United Nations, and all of the Countries on the U.N. Security Council, China, Russia, France, The United Kingdom, Algeria, Denmark, Greece, Guyana, South Korea, Pakistan, Panama, Sierra Leone, Slovenia, and Somalia. Also thank you to those Countries that weren’t on this Committee, but strongly backed the effort, including Qatar, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Turkiye, and Jordan.”

Trump added that “The members of the Board, and many more exciting announcements, will be made in the coming weeks,” hinting at forthcoming details about the new international body he intends to lead.

The resolution passed with 13 votes in favor, while Russia and China abstained. The measure formally authorizes the creation of an international stabilization force for Gaza, mandates the disarmament of Hamas, and outlines what it calls a “pathway to the establishment of a Palestinian state.”

That final clause sparked controversy in Israel, where several senior ministers denounced any language hinting at Palestinian statehood. Despite their objections, the text of the resolution went to a vote unchanged.

The UN endorsement follows weeks of diplomatic maneuvering surrounding Trump’s Gaza plan, which both Israel and Hamas had previously agreed to begin implementing in stages. The resolution now provides the international legitimacy needed to move forward with the plan’s security and governance framework.

Meanwhile, in Yerushalayim, Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu reiterated his government’s steadfast position. “Our opposition to a Palestinian state on any part of this territory has not changed in the slightest,” he said on Sunday, underscoring Israel’s refusal to accept a two-state solution west of the Jordan River.
