Washington (HRNW)- Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, US President Donald Trump announced the establishment of a new global institution, the “Board of Peace,” to monitor, monitor, and restore peace after the Gaza war. The US President presented this institution as a forum that would play a role in monitoring the ceasefire in Gaza, establishing an interim governance system, and resolving future global conflicts.
In the initial phase, about 19 countries, including Pakistan, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Indonesia, Morocco, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Argentina, and Israel, have signed the proposed document. According to government statements, the first goal of the Peace Council is to monitor a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and create an administrative structure.
However, with the announcement of this plan, serious questions and concerns have arisen in international political circles. According to analysts, the biggest weakness of the Peace Council is its limited and fragmented membership, as many major Western countries, including France, Britain, Germany, and Canada, have not joined or are expressing reservations. In this situation, the institution feels like a limited political alliance under the influence of the United States rather than a comprehensive global forum.
Questions are also being raised about the role of the United Nations. Although President Trump says that the Peace Council is not a replacement for the United Nations, his statements have referred to the failures of the United Nations and advocated for a new system, raising fears that this project could weaken the role of the United Nations on the global stage.
Furthermore, the Peace Council draft includes provisions for the disarmament of Gaza and the establishment of an interim order, but there is no clear mention of an Israeli military withdrawal or arms control. According to critics, disarming one side and maintaining the other with full military power cannot be the basis for lasting peace.
Political experts say that peace is not possible with just documents and signatures, but no plan can achieve practical success without addressing fundamental issues such as ground realities, humanitarian crisis, restoration of aid, and real political representation.
Questions are also being raised about the Peace Council in financial terms, as the condition of a billion dollar contribution for each member country is being linked to the interests of unrealistic and elite powers.
The participation of Muslim countries, including Pakistan, is also being debated in the Islamic world. According to critics, participation in a forum over which the US President has full authority seems difficult to be acceptable to the Muslim people.
Overall, analysts say that despite its lofty claims, the Peace Council is currently an unclear, controversial, and questionable project, the success of which depends on its impartiality, transparency, and harmony with ground realities. Otherwise, this project may prove to be another experiment in global politics instead of peace.
