UK: Starmer asked to sit on Gaza 'Board of Peace' by Trump administration
https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/uk-starmer-asked-sit-gaza-board-peace-trump-administration(www.middleeasteye.net)UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has reportedly been asked by the Trump administration to sit on a "Board of Peace" for Gaza. This US-chaired board is currently being formed to oversee reconstruction in the region and is expected to include around 15 world leaders. The board will reportedly include leaders from the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey. Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair was previously considered but was dropped, though he may serve on a smaller executive board. Little is known about the board's specific priorities, but it faces challenges such as Israeli opposition to Turkey's participation in a related international security force.
