US EditionTrump launches ‘Board of Peace’ with signing ceremony in Davos
- 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.
