Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has accepted an invitation from US President Donald Trump to join his proposed “Board of Peace,” an international body aimed at resolving global conflicts.
Netanyahu’s office confirmed the development on Wednesday, stating that the Israeli leader had agreed to become a member of the board, which is expected to be made up of world leaders.
According to the statement, the initiative was initially conceived to oversee the rebuilding of post-war Gaza, but documents seen by AFP indicate that the board’s mandate extends beyond the Palestinian territory.
The charter reportedly requires members to contribute up to $1 billion in exchange for a permanent seat on the board.
“The Board of Peace seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict,” the charter’s preamble reads.
The move has already sparked debate, with analysts questioning both the scope of the board’s authority and the financial conditions attached to membership, as global attention remains focused on Gaza and other conflict-prone regions.
