President Trump's "Board of Peace," an organization aimed at resolving global conflicts, is scheduled to meet in Washington on February 19. The board's creation, stemming from Trump's plan to end the Israel-Hamas war, has expanded beyond Gaza reconstruction to encompass broader peace-building efforts. While the initial focus was on Gaza and received UN Security Council backing, the board's charter envisions a more expansive role in conflict zones. The upcoming meeting's primary objective is to raise funds for reconstruction efforts. The initiative has faced criticism, with some allies declining to join and analysts suggesting it's an attempt to create a rival to the United Nations under Trump's control.
