Robert Wexler, former Democratic Congressman and President of the Center for Middle East Peace, joins 13th & Park to discuss one of the most consequential diplomatic moments in recent history, the Gaza Peace Pact.

Wexler unpacks how President Trump’s 20-point plan brought Israel, Arab nations, and global powers together to broker a ceasefire, return hostages, and lay the groundwork for long-term regional peace. He explains why he, a lifelong Democrat, called for Trump’s nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize and why bipartisan recognition is critical to sustaining progress in the Middle East.

The discussion covers Iran’s weakened position, the new coalition of Arab and Western nations, the importance of Palestinian reform, and the role of American diplomacy in building a more stable and hopeful future for the region.
