A Plan to End the Gaza Conflict, began as a mechanism to oversee the fragile Gaza ceasefire, reconstruction efforts, disarmament of militant groups, and transitional governance in the territory—aligned with UN Security Council Resolution 2803 (2025).
The Board's mandate has since expanded to a broader global scope: promoting stability, restoring lawful governance, and securing enduring peace in conflict-affected areas worldwide. Trump, who will serve as lifelong Chairman with significant authority (including veto-like powers), described it as an agile body that could "do pretty much whatever we want to do" while insisting it would complement—not replace—the United Nations.
Key features include:
A steep $1 billion contribution requirement for permanent membership, limiting early participation to fewer than 20 countries (e.g., Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, Egypt, Hungary, Pakistan, Argentina, and others; notable absences include major Western allies like the UK, France, Germany, Canada, and Italy).
A Founding Executive Board featuring high-profile figures such as Marco Rubio, Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, Tony Blair, Ajay Banga (World Bank), and Marc Rowan (Apollo Global Management).
Focus on mobilizing resources for Gaza's rebuilding (described by Trump as turning a "beautiful piece of property" into a prosperous hub), while potentially addressing other crises.
The launch has sparked mixed reactions: supporters praise its pragmatic, action-oriented approach to bypass UN bureaucracy; critics (especially in Europe) express alarm over potential rivalry with the UN, concerns about U.S.-centric control, lack of broad multilateral buy-in, and risks to global governance norms. Russia has shown interest, while the charter's global ambitions and Trump's indefinite chairmanship fuel debate.
As of today (January 22, 2026), the Board remains in its early stages, with more members and details expected in the coming weeks. Its success will hinge on delivering tangible results in Gaza and attracting wider participation amid ongoing skepticism.
