Investing.com -- British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has welcomed the agreement on the first stage of U.S. President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza, calling for its full and immediate implementation.

"I welcome the news that a deal has been reached on the first stage of President Trump’s peace plan for Gaza," Starmer said in a statement.

The British leader emphasized that the agreement must be implemented completely without delay and accompanied by "the immediate lifting of all restrictions on life-saving humanitarian aid to Gaza."

Starmer noted this would bring profound relief, particularly for hostages, their families, and Gaza’s civilian population. He expressed gratitude to the United States, Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey for their "tireless" diplomatic efforts in securing the deal.

"We call on all parties to meet the commitments they have made, to end the war, and to build the foundations for a just and lasting end to the conflict and a sustainable path to a long-term peace," he added.

The UK government pledged to support both the immediate implementation steps and the next stage of talks to ensure the full execution of the peace plan.
