The White House has reportedly extended invitations to dozens of world leaders to participate in the post-war administration of the Palestinian enclave
According to the text of the entity’s charter, which was obtained by multiple media outlets, US President Donald Trump is seeking at least $1 billion from countries to retain their seats on Gaza’s “Board of Peace” beyond a three-year term limit.
Earlier this week, the White House officially initiated Phase Two of the US-supported peace initiative for Gaza, and set up the so-called ‘Board of Peace’ to supervise the reconstruction of the Palestinian enclave.
The charter, which outlines the board’s structure and membership conditions, was reportedly distributed, with invitations dispatched to dozens of world leaders, urging them to join the panel.
“Each Member State shall serve a term of no more than three years from this Charter’s entry into force, subject to renewal by the Chairman,” the charter states, according to the Times of Israel. “The three-year membership term shall not apply to Member States that contribute more than USD $1,000,000,000 in cash funds to the Board of Peace within the first year of the Charter’s entry into force.”
“This Board will be unique; there has never been anything comparable!” Trump said in a copy of the invitation shared by Argentinian President Javier Milei. According to media reports, other leaders invited to join include Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
The charter does not specifically reference Gaza, stoking speculation that Trump aims to create a UN alternative and expand its authority to other conflict zones. It defines the entity as “an international organization that seeks to promote stability, restore reliable and lawful governance, and secure lasting peace in areas affected by or at risk of conflict.”
Trump has appointed himself as the chairman of the new body’s Executive Board, which includes a controversial lineup of diplomats, financiers, and political allies. The most notable appointees are former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and the president’s son-in-law and senior advisor, Jared Kushner.
Most of the goals outlined in Trump’s 20-point Gaza framework have not yet been fully put into practice on the ground. The initial phase concentrated on ceasing hostilities, facilitating prisoner exchanges, easing humanitarian access, reopening the Rafah crossing with Egypt, and enabling a partial Israeli withdrawal.
As the second phase commences, Trump has reiterated calls for the “full demilitarization” of Hamas and the transfer of authority to the newly established National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG).
