United States President Donald Trump launched the Board of Peace on Thursday, saying it’s one of the most consequential bodies ever created in the history of the world.
This is all part of the agreement to reach a ceasefire in Gaza – after more than two years of Israel’s genocidal war on Palestinians in the territory.
Trump said the board will work in partnership with the United Nations to address crises far beyond Gaza.
