U.S. President Donald Trump spoke with reporters before boarding Air Force One on his way to Israel. He said, "Everyone is very excited about this moment. This is a very special event. In Israel and also in Muslim and Arab countries, everyone is cheering. Everyone is cheering simultaneously, this has never happened before. Usually, if one side cheers, the other side doesn't and vice versa. This is the first time everyone is amazed and excited, and it is a privilege to be part of this."
