Trump Invites Stubb to Gaza 'Executive Board'

The council will oversee Gaza's temporary administration, reconstruction, and ceasefire compliance without Palestinian representation, including leaders from the US, Russia, and Finland.

  • On Thursday, US President Donald Trump announced a Gaza peace council to supervise governance and reconstruction, and the White House released an initial member list Saturday including Finnish President Alexander Stubb's invitation.
  • A fragile ceasefire since October prompted the council's creation as part of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas, following the truce entering its second phase last week and Alexander Stubb's October White House meeting.
  • Kremlin officials confirmed that President Vladimir Putin was invited, while US officials said the council includes members like Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Tony Blair, Ajay Banga, Marc Rowan, and that leaders such as Erdoğan, al-Sisi, Milei, and Carney received invitations.
  • The council's exclusion of Palestinian representatives has drawn criticism from regional observers and aid organisations, while Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister, said Israel was not consulted, has not approved the council, and retains security responsibility for Gaza.
  • Helsingin Sanomat first reported Stubb's invitation, delivered overnight between Friday and Saturday, while the Office of the President of the Republic of Finland reviews it shortly after Trump mentioned possible export levies on Finland.
