US EditionTrump Unveils Ambitious Board of Peace Amid Global Skepticism
Trump’s Board of Peace includes 25 nations with three-year terms or $1 billion buy-in, aiming to resolve Gaza and global conflicts amid skepticism from key allies.
- On Thursday, January 22, 2026, U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled the Board of Peace at Davos, with more than a dozen leaders from 19 countries signing the charter and naming Trump inaugural chairman.
- Trump proposed the Board as part of his Gaza ceasefire plan last September and expanded its remit beyond Gaza; the initiative was announced last week with invitations sent to more than 50 countries.
- Up to 25 countries have accepted, Witkoff said, while 35 have agreed to sign and 50 nations were invited, according to a senior official.
- Several close allies including France, the United Kingdom, Norway and Sweden have rejected participation, and diplomats warned it remains unclear what legal authority the Board will have.
- Vladimir Putin is consulting Moscow's partners and plans to discuss a $1 billion payment to the Board of Peace for humanitarian use during talks with Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, and Mahmoud Abbas.
