‘Lying to the nation’: Trump orbit slams Biden for taking credit for ceasefire deal

As President Biden prepares to leave the White House, he is facing criticism for his handling of the recent ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. A Trump transition official has accused Biden of lying to the nation and taking credit for a deal that was actually brokered by the previous administration.

The ceasefire agreement, which also secured the release of hostages, marks a significant turning point in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. However, Biden’s attempt to claim sole credit for the deal has drawn backlash from those who believe that the Trump administration played a key role in its success.

During his farewell address, Biden touted the ceasefire as a major achievement of his administration, emphasizing the months of negotiation that went into securing the agreement. He praised his team for their efforts and highlighted the importance of working together as Americans to address complex international issues.

Despite Biden’s attempts to highlight his administration’s role in the ceasefire deal, it is clear that the Trump administration also played a significant part in its success. Sources have revealed that a recent meeting between Trump’s incoming Middle East envoy and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was instrumental in reaching the agreement.

Netanyahu himself has expressed gratitude to both Trump and Biden for their assistance in advancing the release of hostages. He emphasized the importance of collaboration between the US and Israel in ensuring the safety and security of all parties involved in the conflict.

When questioned about who would be remembered for championing the ceasefire deal, Biden appeared dismissive of the suggestion that Trump deserved credit. However, his response only served to highlight the ongoing debate over the true architects of the agreement.

As Biden prepares to hand over the reins of power to the incoming Trump administration, the legacy of the ceasefire deal will continue to be a point of contention. It remains to be seen how history will remember the efforts of both administrations in bringing peace to the region.
