Bitter dispute between Trump and EU over Gaza’s future breaks out into the open

A dispute between the EU and the US has emerged regarding the future of Gaza and Donald Trump's "Board of Peace." EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas criticized the board, stating it bypasses UN resolutions and excludes Palestinian input. Spain's foreign minister echoed these concerns, noting the EU's exclusion despite being a major funder of the Palestinian Authority. Senator Chris Murphy raised concerns about potential misuse of reconstruction funds. The disagreement surfaced at the Munich Security Conference ahead of a Board of Peace meeting in Washington. Trump's high representative for Gaza, Nickolay Mladenov, avoided the controversy, emphasizing the urgency of humanitarian aid and decommissioning weapons to prevent further conflict.
