US EditionChina invited to join Trump's 'Board of Peace'
China confirmed receiving the U.S. invitation to join Trump's Board of Peace, designed to oversee Gaza's reconstruction and potentially broader conflict resolution, with $1 billion securing permanent membership.
- On Jan 20, China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said, `China has received the invitation from the United States` to join President Donald Trump's Board of Peace.

- Washington has asked Russian President Vladimir Putin, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to join the board, with Trump chairing and retaining veto power; Bloomberg reported $1 billion grants permanent membership.
- Governments have reacted cautiously to the invitations, with diplomats warning the initiative could undermine the United Nations, while earlier this week the presidents of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Belarus accepted as founding members.
- The initiative would kick off by addressing the Gaza conflict and then expand to other situations, while Chinese officials say China–US ties have remained largely steady over the past year amid a recent trade truce.
