1. U.S. SECRETARY OF STATE MARCO RUBIO DELIVERING SPEECH DURING SIGNING CEREMONY OF CHARTER OF THE "BOARD OF PEACE" DAVOS, SWITZERLAND - JAN. 22, 2026: U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke in Davos on Thursday, Jan. 22, as President Donald Trump took part in the announcement of the 'Board of Peace' charter, an event held on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum.

The initiative, initially conceived as a mechanism to oversee the Gaza ceasefire and post-war reconstruction, has since expanded into a broader international conflict-mediation body, with dozens of countries invited to join.

Among the countries that have accepted the invitation are Israel, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Jordan, Qatar, and Egypt, as well as NATO members Türkiye and Hungary.

Other participating states include Morocco, Pakistan, Indonesia, Kosovo, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Belarus.

Last week, the White House announced the formation of the Board of Peace, alongside the approval of a National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, one of the four bodies designated to manage the transitional phase in the enclave.

The creation of the board coincided with the launch of phase two of a ceasefire agreement, which halted Israel’s war on Gaza that has killed more than 71,000 people and injured over 171,000 others since October 2023.

The board, likely to have Trump as a lifetime chairman, is expected to operate as an international peacebuilding organization, with a mandate that extends beyond Gaza.
