"Donald Trump's Board of Peace meets for the first time pledging money, peacekeeping troops and investment for Gaza."
"Only one Palestinian was present, and major European nations remain wary."
"Presenter: James Bays Guests: Rami Khouri Distinguished fellow at the American University of Beirut Gideon Levy Columnist at the Haaretz newspaper Hugh Lovatt Senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations"
A newly established Board met and pledged money, peacekeeping troops, and investment aimed at Gaza. Only one Palestinian attended the meeting, highlighting limited Palestinian representation. Major European nations expressed wariness about the initiative and its potential effectiveness. The pledged funds and forces could support reconstruction and security if mandates, oversight, and coordination are clear. Limited Palestinian input and European caution risk undermining legitimacy, delaying implementation, and increasing mistrust among Gazans. Real impact on daily life will depend on sustained financing, adherence to international law, transparent governance, and meaningful engagement with Palestinian authorities and communities.
