WASHINGTON, JAN 17: US President Donald Trump has invited his Egyptian counterpart Abdel Fattah al-Sisi to join the “Board of Peace” meant to oversee post-war Gaza, Egypt’s foreign minister said on Saturday.
“We received an invitation from the American side, from the US president, addressed to… Sisi to join the Board of Peace, and we are studying the matter,” Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty told reporters.
US President Donald Trump has sent a letter inviting Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan to become a member of a so-called “Board of Peace” that is to supervise the temporary governance of Gaza, which has been under a fragile ceasefire since October last year, the Turkish presidency said.
The White House on Friday announced some members the Board of Peace, which Trump will chair.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan was announced as one of the members of “Gaza Executive Board,” along with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner.
