Trump's Board of Peace Debuts as Allies Hesitate to Join

President Trump launches the Board of Peace, securing roughly $6.5 billion in pledges from several member countries while the U.S. commits $10 billion over 10 years; the World Bank will manage the funds and a stabilization plan for Gaza is underway, with some countries pledging troops and others only sending observers. European powers largely sit out or act as observers, and critics warn the board could sidestep the UN and upset established diplomacy, though Trump casts it as a global effort to rebuild Gaza and empower UN-backed work.

Trump's Board of Peace Draws Skepticism as European Allies Skip Inaugural Meeting

European allies and the Vatican declined to join Trump’s inaugural Board of Peace meeting in Washington, making it appear more like a fundraising forum for Gaza reconstruction, as Trump touts billions pledged while critics question the board’s mandate, governance, and likely impact on the Israel–Gaza conflict amid ongoing humanitarian concerns.

Trump's Gaza Board tests multilateralism as middle powers weigh in

Most EU states declined or hesitated to join Trump's 'Board of Peace' for Gaza reconstruction, with Hungary and Bulgaria among the few EU participants; France refused and Denmark wasn't invited. The charter broadens the mandate beyond Gaza, raising concerns it could bypass the UN and reshape multilateralism by corralling middle powers into a US-led, funded club. Critics question governance and transparency, including Jared Kushner's role, while China and the UN emphasise that only the UN Security Council has legitimate authority over peace and security.

Biden Announces Hamas No Longer Major Threat, Unveils New Israel Ceasefire Plan

President Joe Biden outlined a three-phase deal proposed by Israel to Hamas aimed at ending the Israel-Hamas war and securing the release of hostages in Gaza. The plan includes a six-week ceasefire, withdrawal of Israeli forces, and a phased release of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. The final phase involves major reconstruction efforts in Gaza. Biden emphasized the difficulty of negotiations and urged both sides to commit to the deal, while Israeli officials remain focused on military objectives. Hamas responded positively but called for a permanent ceasefire and complete Israeli withdrawal.

"Saudi Arabia's Firm Stance: No Recognition of Israel Without Palestinian State Path"

Saudi Arabia's top diplomat stated in a CNN interview that the kingdom will not normalize relations with Israel or contribute to Gaza's reconstruction without a credible pathway to a Palestinian state, a stance rejected by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The ongoing war between Israel and Hamas, with over 25,000 killed in Gaza, has intensified the dispute over Gaza's future and strained relations between Israel and its allies. Netanyahu faces mounting domestic pressure over the plight of Israeli hostages, with families protesting and calling for new elections, while the U.S. urges a shift to more precise military operations and broader postwar plans.
