In February 2026, US President Donald Trump is set to chair the first meeting of the "Board of Peace" in Washington D.C. The board, comprised of representatives from around two dozen countries, will discuss the ceasefire in Gaza and fundraising efforts for its reconstruction. Trump envisions a broader scope for the board's work, extending "far beyond" Gaza. While many countries have joined, several key US allies have not signed on. The meeting aims to address the situation in Gaza and potentially expand its focus to other global issues. The composition of the board and its objectives are expected to have implications for Gaza and international relations.
