Donald Trump has announced that his Board of Peace has brokered a disarmament deal with Hamas in what he called “a monumental step”.
It is understood the deal would see Israel withdraw from Gaza in exchange for the Iran-backed militant group giving up their weapons.
“This agreement is a critical step towards Gaza finally being governed by a new Palestinian government that will work closely with the Board of Peace to help the Palestinian people,” Trump said in a social media post.
“At the same time, Israel will have the security it deserves, with Gaza no longer used as a base for terror attacks.”
Israel has yet to comment, with US officials saying that Trump will be “very disappointed” if Israel does not withdraw as part of the agreement
The Board of Peace initiative has been criticized by rights advocates who have raised concerns about what they call an imperial structure and by those who see it as undermining the United Nations.
Trump allies praise it as an innovative approach to tackle complex issues.
What is the Board of Peace?
Trump first proposed the board last September when he announced his plan to end Israel’s war in Gaza.
He later said the board’s remit would be expanded beyond Gaza to tackle other conflicts worldwide, with Trump as its chair. Such efforts have traditionally been the role of the United Nations.
Member states would be limited to three-year terms unless they pay $1bn each to fund the board’s activities and earn permanent membership, its charter said.
The White House in January named US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner as members of the initiative’s founding Executive Board
