The incoming Trump administration worked in close co-ordination with that of his predecessor, Joe Biden, over the deal, which was agreed between Israel and ****** earlier this month.

The president welcomed the release of the recently freed British-Israeli hostage Emily Damari, Downing Street said.

Officials credited Trump with telling mediators he wanted an agreement before his inauguration. He had publicly warned of “hell to pay” if ****** did not agree to release the hostages.

Downing Street also said Trump and Sir Keir “discussed the importance of working together for security in the Middle East”, and spoke about trade and the economy.

Trump offered his condolences to Sir Keir about the death of his brother, and expressed his “respect” for the *** Royal Family.

The pair have agreed to meet in person. Sir Keir wrote on X following the call: “I look forward to meeting soon to strengthen the close ties between our countries.”
