At least 25 countries have signed onto the “Board of Peace for Gaza” proposed by US President Donald Trump, according to an official. The board aims to promote peace and stability in the region.
The list of signatory countries includes Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Israel has also agreed to join the board.
Some European nations have expressed reservations about the board, with no official statement from them available. However, it is reported that some European countries have declined to participate in the initiative.
The US official stated that Trump could potentially chair the board for its entire duration and that voluntary contributions of $1 billion are being accepted. The purpose of these contributions is not specified.
It is worth noting that the board’s existence and membership have been met with varying reactions from different countries and regions.
