US EditionDonald Trump Withdraws Mark Carney’s Invitation to Join ‘Board of Peace’
Trump revoked Canada’s Board of Peace invitation after Carney’s speech at Davos criticized U.S. dominance and coercive diplomacy, escalating tensions between the allies.

- Odd diplomatic elements, including the $1 billion fee claim and the Vatican's evaluation of 'Pope Leo, the first American pope,' highlight critics' questions about the board's legitimacy.
