Trump says Board of Peace will unveil $5B in Gaza reconstruction pledges
President Trump announced a $5 billion pledge for the reconstruction of Gaza from his newly formed Board of Peace, with a formal announcement expected soon.
U.S. President Donald Trump recently revealed that his newly established Board of Peace has pledged $5 billion for the reconstruction of war-torn Gaza. This announcement is set to be made official at the board's first meeting in Washington on Thursday. Trump expressed his belief that the Board of Peace could become the most significant international organization in history, emphasizing the importance of the reconstruction efforts in the region.
While no specific details were provided regarding which countries would contribute to the reconstruction or stabilization efforts, Indonesia has made headlines by announcing its readiness to deploy up to 8,000 troops to Gaza by the end of June. This is the first concrete commitment made towards the international stabilization force, indicating a potential collaborative effort to bring peace and support humanitarian needs in Gaza following the ongoing conflict.
The implications of this initiative are significant, particularly as it aims not only to rebuild the infrastructure in Gaza but also to foster international cooperation in stabilizing the region. This ambitious plan could reshape international relations and contribute to long-term peace efforts if countries rally around Trump's Board of Peace to support and execute these commitments effectively.
