Donald Trump's Board of Peace was presented as a multi-member group tied to governance questions in Gaza but has since been described in public statements as a broader international committee. The board is chaired solely by Trump, and recent reporting says its structure and membership terms have evolved. Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accepted an invitation to join the group. The International Criminal Court has previously issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, according to reports.
Key facts:
- The Board of Peace is described as chaired only by Donald Trump and has been promoted as a high-profile international forum.
