Trump's New 'Board of Peace' Debuts at Davos

US President Donald Trump introduces the 'Board of Peace' at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Although its exact mandate and membership are unclear, Trump claims it aims to resolve global conflicts, starting with Gaza. Some nations express concern over its role compared to the UN.

US President Donald Trump has launched the 'Board of Peace' during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, with attendees comprising presidents, prime ministers, and diplomats primarily from the Middle East and South America.

The initiative, touted as 'very unique for the world,' lacks detailed plans on its mandate and how it will function in coordination with the United Nations to tackle global conflicts like the Israel-Hamas War in Gaza. Concerns persist among allies over its potential to rival the UN.

While Trump maintains confidence in the board's success, starting in Gaza, skepticism remains among some invitees considering membership. The White House has not released a full charter or membership list for public scrutiny.
