"Trump announced last week that he will head up the founding Executive Board that will include Blair, along with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner and others who will each oversee a defined portfolio critical to Gaza's stabilization and long-term success. On Monday, the Kremlin claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin received an invitation to join the council."
"Bloomberg obtained a copy of the proposed organization's charter that declared each member state will be part of the organization for just three years, unless they contribute more than USD $1,000,000,000 in cash funds to the Board of Peace within the first year of the Charter's entry into force. Trump would have ultimate control over which nations are invited to join. In addition, he would control the money, and would have the power to appoint his successor, the report said. A spokesperson for Tony Blair said Sunday he isn't involved in determining the board's membership, indicating he would not publicly support the proposal, Bloomberg reported. The spokesperson added that questions about the $1 billion fee should be directed to the Trump administration."
Tony Blair accepted a spot on President Donald Trump's proposed Board of Peace but is balking at a $1 billion fee required for permanent membership. The founding Executive Board would include Blair, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner and others overseeing portfolios for Gaza stabilization and long-term success. The Kremlin said Vladimir Putin received an invitation to join. A proposed charter limits membership to three years unless a nation contributes more than USD $1,000,000,000 in cash within the first year. Trump would control invitations, finances and the power to appoint his successor. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney agreed in principle to join but not to payments. Critics fear the project could rival or replace the United Nations.
