Trump launches Board of Peace, minus several key allies
President Trump has launched his Board of Peace, which will focus first on Gaza’s ceasefire. The president inaugurated the new group before leaving the World Economic Forum in Davos, saying “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.” Many of America’s traditional allies are refusing to join the Board of Peace. A main complaint is the track record of countries who have signed up, including Saudi Arabia, Hungary, and Pakistan. There’s also concern about the invitation to Russia’s Vladimir Putin to join the Board.
