The inaugural meeting of Donald Trump's Peace Council is set to take place this Thursday in Washington, D.C. Initially intended to focus on peace in the Gaza Strip, the initiative garnered widespread backing from much of the global community, including the European Union. Notably, prominent leaders such as the German Chancellor, the Prime Ministers of the UK and Italy, and the President of France participated in the celebration of Trump's 20-point peace plan for Gaza in October, along with representatives from various Arab and Muslim nations. However, Poland was conspicuously absent from this gathering, raising questions about its stance towards the initiative.

In November, the UN Security Council endorsed Trump's proposal to establish the Peace Council and deploy peacekeeping forces to Gaza. Achieving consensus in such crucial issues is rare, especially without the veto of any permanent member. Both Russia and China abstained from voting, while all other members supported the plan, including states actively involved in geopolitical discussions. This situation highlights not only Trump's diplomatic efforts but also the complex dynamics at play within international relations concerning the Middle East.

The unexpected resistance from European nations, particularly Poland, suggests a shift in the political landscape. Poland’s absence from the supportive ranks may indicate a cautious approach towards U.S. foreign policy, especially under Trump's administration, which can heavily influence regional alliances within Europe. As the Peace Council moves forward, the reactions from various countries will be crucial in determining its effectiveness and acceptance on a global scale.
