Trump's Board of Peace meets: Who's in, who's out, what's on the agenda?
"Lauding the board's unlimited potential, Trump, its indefinite chairman, wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform: The Board of Peace will prove to be the most consequential International Body in History. Critics have called out Trump's imperial agenda with the board's expanding charter viewed by many analysts as rivalling the United Nations. Trump has also been criticised for offering seats on the board to Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu and Russia's Vladimir Putin, both leaders wanted for allaged war crimes by the International Criminal Court."
"United States President Donald Trump will host the inaugural meeting of his so-called Board of Peace in Washington on Thursday, assembling representatives from member nations to announce strategies and funding for the reconstruction of Gaza. While the US's Western allies cautiously keep the board at arm's length, some Middle Eastern nations are joining the first meet-up, which will take place at the US Institute of Peace in Washington."
