Davos, MINA – US President Donald Trump formally launched his Board of Peace on Thursday, stating that the group, which he chairs, will collaborate with the United Nations to address global crises far beyond the Gaza Strip.
“We’re committed to ensuring Gaza is demilitarized, properly governed and beautifully rebuilt. It’s going to be a great plan, and that’s where the Board of Peace really started. And I think we can spread out to other things as we succeed with Gaza,” Trump said during a signing ceremony with nearly two dozen world leaders on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos.
“It’s going to be a great thing to watch. And we can do other things. We can do numerous other things. Once this board is completely formed, we can do pretty much whatever we want to do, and we’ll do it in conjunction with the United Nations,” he added.
Representatives from multiple countries signed the board’s founding documents, though specific details regarding its mandate and charter were not immediately disclosed.

While questions have persisted about the board’s scope, Trump’s remarks indicate it will engage in international affairs well beyond Gaza. He also criticized what he called the UN’s failure to utilize its “tremendous potential.”
“There is tremendous potential with the United Nations. And I think the combination of the Board of Peace with the kind of people we have up here, coupled with the United Nations, can be something very, very unique for the world,” Trump stated.[]
