US EditionAt the ‘Board of Peace,’ Power Belongs to Trump
The Board of Peace extends beyond Gaza to address global conflicts with Trump holding veto and agenda-setting powers as inaugural chairman, backed by 19 world leaders.
- On Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, President Donald Trump unveiled the Board of Peace with 19 world leaders present and a leaked draft charter granting him broad chairmanship powers.
- The administration recast a United Nations-backed Gaza reconstruction mandate into a broader global peace institution, building on a United Nations Security Council mandate to coordinate Gaza reconstruction.
- News outlets reported over two dozen initial signatories to the board, with NewsNation citing the White House on numerous Middle Eastern states; only Hungary and Bulgaria appeared onstage while several European governments declined.
- Countries would be expected to pledge $1 billion for permanent seats, with critics warning the board could supplant the U.N., as Marc Weller and Mary Robinson expressed concerns.
- The ISF will be commanded by U.S. Major General Jasper Jeffers, but critics warn the International Stabilization Force in Gaza risks reviving death squads, night raids, and `kill or capture` tactics.
