US President Donald Trump may announce the creation of the Gaza Board of Peace - a body to govern the Gaza Strip - as early as next week, APA reports citing Axios portal.
The portal wrote, with reference to unnamed US officials, that the US leader is expected to make the announcement as part of the second phase of the ceasefire agreement. The board will be chaired by Trump and "include around 15 world leaders." It will oversee "a still-to-be-formed Palestinian technocratic government" and supervise "the reconstruction process" in the Gaza Strip.
"Invitations are going out to key countries to be members of the board," the portal quoted a source with direct knowledge as saying.
It is expected to include the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt and Türkiye. According to the portal, The Board of Peace representative on the ground will be former UN envoy to the Middle East Nikolay Mladenov, who is visiting Israel this week for meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli government officials ahead of the planned announcement.
