Trump Wants Nations to Pay $1 Billion to Stay on His Peace Board
Source: Bloomberg
The Trump administration is asking countries that want a permanent spot on his new Board of Peace to contribute at least $1 billion.
According to a draft charter for the proposed group seen by Bloomberg, President Donald Trump would serve as its inaugural chairman and would decide on who is invited to be members. Decisions would be taken by a majority, with each member state present getting one vote, but all would be subject to the chairmans approval.
Each Member State shall serve a term of no more than three years from this Charters entry into force, subject to renewal by the Chairman. The three-year membership term shall not apply to Member States that contribute more than USD $1,000,000,000 in cash funds to the Board of Peace within the first year of the Charters entry into force, the draft says.

The board is described in the charter as an international organization that seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict. It would become official once three member states agree to the charter.

Trump is apparently trying to set up a Trump country club version of the United Nations.
Oh, and the draft charter says he'll be the one who approves the group's official seal, too.

You're invited to be on "The Board of Peace". You want to participate.
Turkey pays the one billion dollar registration fee.
You're at the table. You put on record that you believe 100% of Gaza belongs to the Palestinians and Israel should withdraw immediately.
Trump says, "Nope!" and keeps the $1,000,000,000.00.

(1,769 posts)"In addition to the Board of Peace, there are other layers of advisors and entities that will be involved in executing US President Donald Trumps vision for Gaza. But, how will they work?
... This international transitional body for Gaza is not the only entity involved in the new phase of the plan. The National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) has also been announced. This is the Palestinian technocratic committee, which will play a key role in governing Gaza.
In addition to BoP, other entities and advisers will be involved in executing US President Donald Trumps vision for Gaza. BoPs executive board is one of these key parts. There is also the Office of the High Representative for Gaza and a Gaza executive board, as well as senior advisors joining BoP.
... First, there is BoP. Trump mentioned this board as far back as September 2025, when the peace deal was coming into view. Following the deals commencement on October 13, the UN also adopted a resolution endorsing the US-backed Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict. This is Trumps 20-point road map for lasting peace, stability, reconstruction, and prosperity in the region.
Trump chairs BoP, while Nickolay Mladenov was chosen as a kind of director-general..."

(4,442 posts)... go to a bank account in the Middle East to be held with the oil money that Trump seems to have seized?
Trump needs to be removed from office at the Democrats earliest convenience or simply resisted effectively. They should shut down the government. Hopefully, Schumer is out of stationery and might have to turn to something stronger, something that works and qualifies as actual resistance. (I don't expect that, however.)
