US EditionTrump launches ‘Board of Peace’ with signing ceremony in Davos
President Trump leads an international board with 35 countries to maintain Gaza ceasefire and oversee reconstruction, aiming to complement the United Nations, officials said.
- On Jan. 22, 2026, President Donald Trump inaugurated the Board of Peace at the World Economic Forum in Davos, focusing initially on overseeing the Gaza ceasefire.
- The idea for the board grew out of Trump's 20-point Gaza ceasefire plan and was endorsed by the U.N. Security Council, while a circulated draft suggests the panel may expand beyond Gaza.
- About 35 countries had agreed to sign on, a senior official said, with 60 nations invited, and officials included Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner.
- European governments such as Norway, Sweden and France declined to participate, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to join and Russian President Vladimir Putin is still deciding.
- With the charter not finalised, next steps remain unclear after the ceremony, though the draft charter says permanent membership would cost more than $1 billion and President Donald Trump holds significant influence as chairman.
