Israel invited to join Trump's 'Board of Peace', sources say
The U.S.-led Board of Peace aims to oversee Gaza’s reconstruction and disarm Hamas, with permanent seats requiring $1 billion contributions amid Israel’s rejection.
- On Jan 19, Israel received an invitation from the United States to join President Donald Trump's Board of Peace, but it was not immediately clear if Israel had accepted and the prime minister’s office did not respond.
- When he announced the plan last September, President Donald Trump proposed creating the Board to end the war in Gaza, and an invitation sent to world leaders last week outlined a broader role ending conflicts globally.
- Announced last week, the Gaza Executive Board includes Hakan Fidan, Turkish Foreign Minister, and a Qatari official, and the White House said it will focus on advancing stability and prosperity in Gaza.
- Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office criticised the Gaza board's composition announced last week as counter to Israel’s policy, while Israeli officials objected to Turkey’s involvement and noted tensions with Qatar could affect regional diplomacy.
- With no Palestinian members listed, questions about representation remain as the prime minister’s office did not respond to requests for comment, leaving Israel’s position unresolved.
