US President Donald Trump has launched the Board of Peace, a new international body unveiled at the Davos Economic Forum, promising to end decades of conflict and reshape global peacemaking. The board, chaired by Trump for life, has drawn both praise and skepticism, with some leaders hailing his efforts and others warning it could undermine the existing international order. Membership comes with a hefty price tag and sweeping powers for Trump, raising concerns about inclusivity and transparency. While the board's first challenge is the ongoing Gaza conflict, its broader ambitions and potential to sideline the United Nations have sparked debate among world leaders and diplomats.
