Israel's Netanyahu accepts invite to join 'Board of Peace
Bangkok Post
|January 22, 2026
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accepted an invitation to join US President Donald Trump's “Board of Peace” aimed at resolving conflicts, Netanyahu’s office said Wednesday.
-
“Prime Minister Netanyahu announced that he has accepted US President Donald Trump's invitation and will join as a member of the Board of Peace, which will be composed of leaders of the world,” the office said in a statement.
The board was originally conceived to oversee the rebuilding of postwar Gaza, but its charter seen by AFP does not appear to limit its role to the Palestinian territory, and members have to pay up to $1 billion for a permanent spot on it.
The board “seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict”, reads the preamble of the charter sent to countries invited to participate.
