Trump wants signing ceremony for his 'Board of Peace' at the World Economic Forum
President Trump's proposed Board of Peace faces skepticism and criticism from various nations. He is requiring a $1 billion fee for permanent membership, a demand that has surprised global leaders. While some, like Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and British PM Keir Starmer, express reservations, Israeli PM Netanyahu opposes the board's governance, citing uncoordinated plans involving Qatar and Turkey.
Trump wants the full constitution and remit of the committee signed at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday. But some elements of the plan's details left invitees questioning whether to accept.
European countries are seeking to negotiate the terms, concerned it could undermine the UN. Meanwhile, Hungary's government has welcomed the invitation. Trump has also reached out to Russian President Putin, causing further tension. This initiative is seen as Trump's attempt to exert influence over international relations.
