Trump invites Jordan’s king to join Gaza Board of Peace

Jordan’s King Abdullah II has received an invitation from U.S. President Donald Trump to join the Gaza Board of Peace, the country’s foreign ministry said.

The king received the invitation “to join the Board of Peace, and the related documents are currently being reviewed in accordance with internal legal procedures.”

“Jordan values President Trump’s leadership role in reaching a ceasefire in Gaza, launching the comprehensive peace plan, and the efforts he is making to achieve security, stability, and peace,” the ministry said.

Dr. Ali Shaath officially began his duties as head of the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza on Sunday, saying his first act was adopting and signing the committee’s mission statement.

Earlier, the White House announced members of the Gaza committee that will oversee the transition of power in the enclave.
