Trump to Host Inaugural Peace Board Meeting to Fund Gaza Reconstruction
More than 40 countries pledged over $5 billion and thousands of personnel for Gaza reconstruction and stabilization, supporting Trump’s plan amid ongoing challenges with Hamas disarmament.
- On Feb. 19, 2026, President Donald Trump will host the inaugural Board of Peace meeting at the renamed Donald J. Trump U.S. Institute of Peace, with member states pledging more than $5 billion for Gaza reconstruction, the White House said.
- The board was created as part of Trump's 20-point Gaza peace plan, and Donald Trump, President, signed its charter at Davos last month, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said.
- More than 40 countries and the European Union will send officials to the meeting, with plans for 12,000 police and 20,000 soldiers, and Indonesia readying about 1,000 troops.
- Some traditional allies declined membership and the Vatican warned the United Nations should manage crises, while the U.N. moved a session after Trump's meeting complicated diplomats' travel.
- While pledged dollars are significant, they amount to only a fraction of the $70 billion needed for Gaza reconstruction, President Trump also announced a $10 billion U.S. pledge while demilitarization and initial deployments to Rafah remain unresolved.
