US President Donald Trump has invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to be part of the “Board of Peace” that will work towards bringing lasting peace to Gaza. The US President has sent a letter to Mr Modi in this regard, which was shared on social media by the US Ambassador to India, Sergio Gor.
In his letter, Mr Trump said it is his great honour to invite the Prime Minister to join him in an effort to solidify peace in the Middle East and, at the same time, to embark on a bold new approach to resolving Global Conflict. The US president unveiled the board as part of the second phase of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
In October, Israel and militant group Hamas agreed to Trump’s peace plan. Mr Trump’s “Board of Peace” is being projected by Washington as a new international body to usher in peace and stability in Gaza and beyond. In his letter to Mr Modi, Trump mentioned his September 29 announcement about a comprehensive plan to end the Gaza conflict, as well as his 20-point roadmap to bring peace to the Middle East. The 20-point plan includes making Gaza a deradicalised, terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbours.
