US President Donald Trump has officially announced a Gaza ‘Board of Peace’ structure to ‘implement’ POTUS’ 20-point plan for the war-torn country as part of his phase two element of the plan to end the conflict in the Palestinian Territory.
The committee, chaired by Trump himself and made up of seven other members, is supposed to oversee the administration and reconstruction of post-war Gaza.
“I am very honored to announce that the PEACE COUNCIL has been created,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform last week.
“I can say with certainty that this is the largest and most prestigious council that has ever been assembled at any time, anywhere,” Trump said.
What is Trump’s Gaza “Peace Council”?
The Gaza “peace council” announced by Donald Trump will have a three-tiered structure – with a board of billionaires and figures close to Israel sitting at the top.
The White House said there will be a main council, a Palestinian committee of technocrats to govern the war-torn territory, and a second “executive council” that appears to play a more advisory role.
