Donald Trump has unveiled plans for a new international organization called the Board of Peace, which he claims will attract 'a lot of great people' and could eventually rival or replace the United Nations. Initially intended to oversee the ceasefire in Gaza, the board's scope has expanded to address global conflicts, with around 60 nations invited to join as permanent members for a billion dollars each. Trump will serve as the lifelong chairman, wielding significant executive powers, and the founding executive board includes prominent figures such as Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, and Tony Blair. While some countries have signed up, others, particularly in Europe, have declined or expressed concern about the board's legitimacy and the inclusion of controversial leaders. The initiative has sparked debate about its impact on the United Nations and the future of international diplomacy.
