US EditionIsrael's Netanyahu accepts invitation to join Trump's Board of Peace
The Board of Peace will oversee Gaza's ceasefire and reconstruction with membership involving dozens of nations, requiring a $1 billion fee for permanent status, amid criticism over its composition.
- On Wednesday, Benjamin Netanyahu accepted Donald Trump's invitation to join the Board of Peace, confirming the decision in a statement posted on X and marking a shift from earlier Israeli criticism.
- The Board of Peace was originally conceived as a small group to help oversee a fragile ceasefire in Gaza, but Jerusalem officials hesitated after Turkey was included on the executive committee.
- Membership lists include at least eight countries—United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Hungary, Argentina, Belarus—and Israel, while analysts describe the draft charter as a `pseudo-UN Security Council`.
- Israel's participation matters because of its central role in the Middle East conflict and close alliance with the United States, and supporters say it could boost the group's credibility beyond Gaza.
- Under current rules, Donald Trump, US President, would chair the Board of Peace for life and has extended invitations worldwide, suggesting it could tackle global disputes.
