The most recent development regarding President Donald Trump's Board of Peace (BoP) is the upcoming announcement of a multi-billion dollar reconstruction plan for Gaza, as well as the deployment of a UN-authorized International Stabilization Force (ISF). According to Dawn and The Frontier Post, Trump will chair the first formal meeting of the BoP on February 19, 2026, in Washington, D.C., with delegations from at least 20 countries expected to attend. The New York Times reports that both the United Arab Emirates and the United States have committed over $1 billion each to this initiative. However, the BoP has faced criticism, particularly from the European Union, with The Guardian highlighting concerns that the board serves as a personal vehicle for Trump, lacking accountability to Palestinians or the United Nations.
