US EditionTrump's 'Board of Peace' Initially Aimed at Rebuilding Gaza, Could Have 'Global Role'
Trump established the Board of Peace, initially for Gaza, now aiming globally with a $1 billion joining fee and three-state activation rule, sparking legal and diplomatic debates.
- On Jan 22 US President Donald Trump launched the Board of Peace at Davos, with the charter's formal signing scheduled at the World Economic Forum.
- In November 2025 the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 2803, authorising the board to coordinate Gaza's reconstruction with a mandate until 31 December 2027 and six-month reports.
- The leaked charter imposes a $1 billion joining fee for permanent members, allows activation with three states, and concentrates veto power in the chair, Donald Trump; Aurel Sari called it "a remarkably small number".
- Around 35 countries, including Saudi Arabia and Israel, have committed to join, despite France, Norway, and Britain declining, and Russia studying the proposal on Jan 21.
- Critics warn the board could challenge the rules-based world order as legal experts note its authority depends on state consent and UNSC mandates, while at least two figures are accused of war crimes, raising democracy concerns among signatories.
