Board of Peace

The 'Board of Peace' is a new international body initiated by US President Donald Trump in January 2026, intended to address global conflicts, particularly the reconstruction of Gaza after a prolonged war. Its launch at the World Economic Forum in Davos has generated significant controversy and speculation about its potential to rival or replace the United Nations. Recent news highlights include a draft resolution granting Trump sweeping powers over Gaza, criticism from allies, and accusations from Brazilian President Lula that Trump is attempting to create a 'new UN.' The location of the Board's headquarters is also under discussion, with Trump eyeing a Washington building. The Board's formation has stirred debate about shifting global alliances and a potential 'new world order,' raising concerns about its impact on international cooperation and Palestinian self-determination. Some countries, like Canada, have been excluded, sparking debate about the Board's legitimacy and goals.
