Trump to Launch “Board of Peace” in Davos
Originally envisioned as a mechanism to oversee the Gaza ceasefire and post-war reconstruction, the initiative has broadened into a global conflict-mediation body, with dozens of nations invited to participate.
US special envoy Steve Witkoff confirmed Wednesday that more than 20 countries have already agreed to join. “I think we have north of 20, maybe 25 world leaders who have already accepted,” he said in an interview with a news agency.
Among the confirmed participants are Israel, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Jordan, Qatar, and Egypt, along with NATO members Türkiye and Hungary. Other states joining include Morocco, Pakistan, Indonesia, Kosovo, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Belarus.
The White House announced the creation of the Board of Peace last week, alongside the approval of a National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, one of four entities tasked with managing the transitional phase in the enclave.
The board’s establishment coincides with the second phase of a ceasefire agreement, which brought an end to Israel’s war on Gaza that has claimed more than 71,000 lives and left over 171,000 injured since October 2023.
