Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, has received an invitation to join President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace.” This board is tasked with overseeing the reconstruction of Gaza, which has suffered extensive damage from ongoing conflicts.
Details of the Invitation
Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s spokesman, confirmed this development during a news conference. He indicated that the Kremlin is currently assessing the invitation and seeks additional information from U.S. officials.
Purpose of the Board of Peace
The Board of Peace aims to facilitate the demilitarization and rebuilding of Gaza. This initiative forms a significant part of a United Nations-backed American plan following two years of warfare involving Israel and the Hamas militant group.
Board Composition
Trump has characterized the board as “the Greatest and Most Prestigious Board ever assembled.” Its members will include:
- Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair
- Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney
- U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio
- Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan
- Argentinian President Javier Milei
- Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi
These leaders have also received invitations, either confirmed by their offices or through public statements.
Next Steps
The Kremlin’s careful evaluation of the invitation suggests a careful approach to international diplomacy regarding the Middle East. More information from the United States is expected soon as discussions progress.
