Pakistan Receives US Invitation to Join Board of Peace on Gaza

The Board of Peace will supervise a technocratic Palestinian committee for Gaza with three-year terms and a $1 billion option for permanent membership, U.S. officials said.

  • Pakistan's prime minister received a United States invitation to join the Board of Peace, with President Donald Trump framing the board to work beyond Gaza, signalling a broader regional remit.
  • The US advanced to Phase 2 and extended invitations to around 60 countries to build a coalition as part of a 20-point plan aiming to de-radicalise and redevelop the region, with the board supervising a Palestinian technocratic committee.
  • Invited member countries will have a three-year tenure with an option for permanent membership upon a $1 billion payment, as the Board of Peace oversees the Palestinian transitional committee.
  • Critics warned the Board of Peace's exclusivity could be perceived as sidestepping the United Nations' charter, and its structure has sparked debate over legitimacy even as Phase 2 advancement continues.
  • Transparency remains limited as the UN-approved mandate from November 2025 has been modified and the full list of participating nations has not been publicly released, while the core objective remains stable transitional governance in Gaza and influence over other conflict-affected areas.
