Trump’s “Board of Peace,” Explained
Trump’s proposed “Board of Peace,” first pitched as an oversight body for a Gaza ceasefire and reconstruction, is now being sold as something bigger: a standing forum that could arbitrate other global conflicts. The moment that reshaped the debate is a draft charter clause reported by major outlets, offering three-year terms for member states unless they pay $1 billion for permanent membership. Supporters call it a pragmatic way to fund and enforce fragile deals. Critics see a pay-to-join power structure that could sidestep UN norms and concentrate authority at the top.
