The White House has released a list of officials that will be included on the so-called “Board of Peace” tasked with overseeing the rebuilding of Gaza and the transition to a new administration.
The board, selected by Donald Trump who is also chairman of the board, include Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the president’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, and former UK Prime Minister Sir Tony Blair, among others.
Those selected are described as “leaders with experience across diplomacy, development, infrastructure, and economic strategy.”
“Each Executive Board member will oversee a defined portfolio critical to Gaza’s stabilization and long-term success, including, but not limited to, governance capacity-building, regional relations, reconstruction, investment attraction, large-scale funding, and capital mobilization,” the White House said.
Rubio, Kushner and Sir Tony are joined on the board by Marc Rowan, Ajay Banga, Robert Gabriel, and U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff.
