Trump claims world 'richer, safer' than year ago at launch of his 'board of peace'

Donald Trump has declared that the world is now a more prosperous, peaceful and secure place than it was just one year ago, as he formally launched his 'Board of Peace' initiative at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

The US president hailed the board as "one of the most consequential bodies ever created in the history of the world" and praised its leaders, including former UK prime minister Tony Blair, saying they were "very popular leaders - in some cases not so popular, but that's the way it goes in life".

However, critics have accused Trump of trying to supplant the United Nations with his new board. British foreign secretary Yvette Cooper warned that there are "huge amount of work to do" before any country can sign up and expressed concerns about Vladimir Putin being part of a peace plan without evidence of commitment from Russia.

Trump himself claimed to have stopped eight wars and said the world was now free from conflict, despite the ongoing situation in Gaza. The US president also touted his plan for rebuilding Gaza, including aid deliveries and infrastructure rehabilitation.

The board's launch comes after Trump announced last week that he would be establishing a "founding executive board" with prominent figures such as Kushner and Ajay Banga. A significant increase in aid to Gaza has been proposed, along with the reconstruction of hospitals, bakeries and other essential services.

However, the Israeli government has expressed strong opposition to some of Trump's plans, particularly the reopening of the Rafah crossing into Egypt, which was announced by Palestinian official Ali Shaath as a major breakthrough. The US president also claimed that Hamas members were "born with rifles in their hands", sparking outrage among human rights activists.

The 'Board of Peace' initiative has sparked controversy and raised questions about Trump's intentions for international relations.
 
omg i dont think this is gonna work lol trumps got some big shoes to fill if he wants to make a difference in world peace...like, eight wars stopped already? that sounds kinda fishy to me 🤔. idk man, the guy seems like more of a problem than a solution. and what about gaza? theres still conflict goin on there and now trump thinks just throwin in some aid and infrastructure work is gonna magically make everything better? no thanks 🙅‍♂️. dont get me wrong i wanna see world peace too, but we need more than just empty promises and a bunch of wealthy elites tellin us what's good for the world...let's keep an eye on this board and see how it really plays out 🤔💡
 
omg, i'm not sure if trump is being serious or just trolling us 🤣 with his new 'board of peace' thingy... like, he's got some big names on it but at the end of the day it sounds like more of the same old politics as usual 🤑. and what's up with him saying there are no wars anymore? have you seen the news lately? gaza is still a mess and north korea is still... well, you know 😬. i'm all for peace and stuff but trump needs to back it up with some real action instead of just talking the talk 💬.
 
🤔 I'm not sure if I believe this 'Board of Peace' thing is gonna be all sunshine and rainbows... Sounds like a bunch of rich folks getting together to make decisions that'll benefit their own pockets, you know? 🤑 And what about those 8 wars Trump said he stopped? 🚫 Gaza's still got issues, like everyone else on the planet. It feels like some big PR stunt to me... Maybe it's good for the world, but I need more proof than just Trump's word 💁‍♂️
 
idk how much i trust trump's "peace" initiative 🤔. it sounds like just another way to exert his influence globally without actually doing anything concrete. newsflash: just because u say something, doesn't mean it happens 🙄. and what's with this whole 'i stopped 8 wars' vibe? is he trying to spin history here? 🕰️ i'm all for a little bit of goodwill, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. the UN has been doing its thing for like, decades now, no need for some flashy new board 🚫
 
🤔 Wow, eight wars supposedly stopped already? 🙄 Interesting, but how can one man really stop conflicts that have been brewing for decades? 💸 Also, a "founding executive board" with Kushner on it... what's the deal with family politics in the US? 🤷‍♂️ And isn't reopening the Rafah crossing gonna just cause more instability? 😬
 
I'm not sure I buy this whole peace and prosperity thing from Trump 🤔💸...he's been pretty divisive on the world stage so far, and his record on things like trade and human rights isn't exactly stellar. And what's with the 'huge amount of work' before countries can sign up to this board? seems kinda fishy to me 🐟👀...and who does he think he is, trying to fill the UN's shoes without even getting an invite first 😂💪
 
I'm not buying it 😒🙄, trump thinks he's some kinda peace guru but all we've seen is him making things worse 🤯. Gaza is still in shambles and the middle east is still super unstable 🌪️. And what's with this "founding executive board" thing? Sounds like just another way for him to surround himself with sycophants 👥. And honestly, kushner and ajay banga should know better than to associate themselves with trump's mess 🤦‍♂️. Meanwhile, the UN is still around and doing a decent job of keeping us from all out war 💯. let's not confuse a bunch of empty promises with actual progress 🙅‍♂️.
 
Ugh, what's next? 🤣 A Nobel Prize in Peacekeeping? Give me a break. I mean, who needs the United Nations when you've got Trump's Board of Peace, right? 😂 It's not like there are already established institutions dedicated to promoting peace and security or anything.

And great job, Donald, stopping eight wars? You must have single-handedly negotiated the end of World War II too. 🙄 The fact that Gaza is still a war zone doesn't exactly scream "peace" to me.

I do love how Trump's trying to outdo himself with his claim that Hamas members were "born with rifles in their hands". That's some top-notch diplomacy right there. 👏

On the bright side, I'm sure it'll be super easy for Tony Blair and co to sign up for this new board. I mean, who wouldn't want to join a group led by Trump? 🤪
 
I'm totally not feeling this one 🤔💔... I mean, eight wars stopped? That sounds super convenient to me 🙄. And what's with the criticism that he's trying to replace the UN with his own board? Doesn't that just come across as a power play? 🤝 Meanwhile, Gaza is still dealing with conflict and humanitarian issues, and Trump wants us to just trust him on rebuilding it? 🤦‍♀️ And those comments about Hamas members having rifles from birth... yikes, not cool 💣. I think we need more transparency and accountability when it comes to international relations before we start blindly trusting anyone's "peace" plans 😕. Can't we just wait and see how this whole thing plays out before getting all excited? 🤔
 
omg, i'm so confused about trump's new peace board lol 🤔 it sounds like he's trying to be a superhero, but is that really possible? 😂 meanwhile, the world still needs help with those 8 wars he claimed to have stopped... 🌎 and what's up with russia and hamas being on the same team? 🤷‍♀️ does this mean they're gonna start working together or something? 🤝 anyway, gotta give some props to tony blair tho, he's still got that charm 😎
 
I think this whole thing is being blown outta proportion 🤔. Trump's got some big shoes to fill, but come on, the guy's already saved us from 8 wars, right? 😂 It's not like he's trying to take over the UN or anything, just tryna make a difference. I mean, Tony Blair's involved, so that's gotta count for something 🙏. And let's be real, Putin's always been a bit of a wild card, but hey, at least Trump's willing to give it a shot 💪. Gaza's gonna get some serious aid and reconstruction, no doubt about it 💸. And, yeah, maybe Hamas isn't exactly the most peaceful bunch, but who is? 🤷‍♂️ At least he's trying, right? So, let's just keep an open mind and see where this Board of Peace thing goes, okay? 🌈
 
omg I'm so hyped about trump's new board of peace 🤩🎉 like seriously he's literally changing the world with this initiative 🌎💖 I know some ppl are skeptical but I think it's amazing that he's bringing together all these influential leaders to work towards world peace ❤️ especially with tony blair and ajay banga on board, I'm all in 💯
 
Wow, just think about it... a board to decide world peace? That's some wild stuff, right? 🤯 Interesting how Trump is trying to take charge like that, considering the UN already has all those rules and agreements in place. Like, what makes him think he can do better without a clearer plan of action? 🤔
 
🤔 This whole 'Board of Peace' initiative feels like a PR stunt to me 📺. I mean, eight wars stopped? That sounds too good to be true 🙄. We all know the Israeli-Palestinian situation is still a mess, and Gaza's been dealing with blockades and humanitarian crises for years 💔. I'm skeptical about Trump's ability to bring peace to this already complicated region.

And what's with the lack of transparency around Putin's involvement? 😒 It's one thing to have diplomacy, but another to just join some sort of 'peace plan' without any real commitment from Russia 🤷‍♂️. This whole thing just reeks of Trump trying to one-up the UN and take on a role he's not exactly qualified for 💼.

I'm also worried about the influence Kushner and Ajay Banga will have on this initiative 👀. Is this just another example of cronyism and nepotism? And what about the actual implementation of these plans? Who's going to be held accountable if things don't go as promised 🤔?
 
😒 I don't know what kind of joke this is, but the idea of some board run by Trump deciding who gets to be peaceful sounds like a total farce 🤣. Like, have you seen his track record on conflict? Gaza is still getting bombed and he's over here talking about rebuilding it? 🤦‍♂️ And what's with this Kushner guy being part of the founding executive board? Hasn't he been more of a disaster than a diplomat? 🙄 This whole thing just reeks of Trump trying to prove himself as some kind of world leader and it's not gonna work. The UN is way more respected than his little "Board of Peace" and at least they don't make stuff up about Hamas members being born with rifles in their hands 😡.
 
omg this board of peace thing sounds super fishy to me 🤔 like why does trump need his own group when the UN is already there? and what makes him think he can just declare the world is more peaceful now, like that's not something everyone sees differently? 🌎 plus, has he even talked to any actual leaders from countries that are affected by these issues in gaza? it seems like he's trying to swoop in and solve everything without listening to other perspectives 🗣️
 
So now the Prez thinks he's some kinda peace expert, huh? 🤔 I mean, coming out of Davos with this "Board of Peace" thing, it's like he's trying to one-up the UN or something. And who does he invite to be part of this board? Tony Blair? Dude's been in power for years and has a pretty checkered past, if you ask me 🤷‍♂️. And what about Putin being on the board? Doesn't that smell like just another attempt at soft power manipulation? 💡
 
Ugh, I'm not sure what's more concerning - the fact that Trump thinks he can just create some new board to solve world problems or that people are actually buying into it 🤯🙄. I mean, come on, eight wars stopped? That's a pretty bold claim, especially when you consider Gaza is still basically under siege right now. And what about all the "popular leaders" he mentioned? Tony Blair is a total controversy magnet, and Vladimir Putin? Not exactly known for his peaceful ways 😒.

I'm also really skeptical of this board being some kind of UN replacement - it sounds like just another way for Trump to exert control without actually doing anything concrete. And don't even get me started on the aid plan... rebuilding hospitals and bakeries is great, but what about the people who can't access basic human rights? Like, have you seen the condition of Gaza's healthcare system lately? 🤕 It's like Trump thinks a few new buildings are going to magically solve all our problems. Newsflash: they're not 💔
 
I'm kinda torn on this one 🤔. On the one hand, it's awesome that Trump is trying to get some big names together to help with global peace and stability. I mean, who doesn't want an end to wars and conflicts? But at the same time, I've got major red flags waving around here 🚨. Like, how can we trust that this board isn't just another way for Trump to exert his influence over other countries without actually listening to their concerns?

And what's up with all these plans for Gaza without a clear understanding of how they're going to be funded or implemented? It sounds like Trump is just throwing a bunch of money and promises at the problem, hoping someone will magically make it work 💸. Newsflash: rebuilding a war-torn region takes more than just cash and good intentions – we need real, sustainable solutions that involve cooperation between countries.

I'm not saying this board can't be useful, but let's keep an open mind and not assume it's going to solve all our global problems overnight ⏱️.
