President Donald Trump convened a high-stakes multilateral meeting with Muslim and Arab leaders on the sidelines of the 80th UN General Assembly, following Israel's bombing of Qatar and speculation over a potential 'Arab Military Alliance.' Trump declared his urgent intent to end the Gaza war, secure the release of hostages, and restore stability in the Middle East.
