Putin Invited to Join Trump’s “Board of Peace” for Gaza, Kremlin Says
Russian President Vladimir Putin has received an invitation from former US President Donald Trump to join a newly proposed “Board of Peace” aimed at overseeing efforts in Gaza and beyond, the Kremlin confirmed on Monday. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow is studying the proposal and hopes to clarify details with Washington before making a decision on whether to participate.
The Board of Peace initiative — to be chaired by Trump — is part of a broader plan linked to post-conflict reconstruction in Gaza. Invitations have reportedly been sent to leaders from around 60 countries, with some nations beginning to accept.
Trump’s peace board concept has raised eyebrows among diplomats and analysts, with critics warning it could complicate or overlap with existing international institutions such as the United Nations.
Putin’s potential involvement comes despite ongoing geopolitical tensions between Russia and the United States, reflecting Trump’s continued efforts to engage global figures in his peace initiative.
