Pakistan has formally agreed to join U.S. President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace” a new international initiative aimed at achieving a lasting peace in Gaza Islamabad’s Foreign Office confirmed. Officials said Pakistan’s participation underscores its commitment to supporting efforts to maintain the fragile ceasefire deliver humanitarian aid and assist in the reconstruction of Gaza while promoting dialogue among regional actors. The government emphasized that it seeks to help advance a permanent ceasefire protect civilian lives and contribute to a political process aligned with UN resolutions including the goal of establishing a viable and independent Palestinian state. Trump is expected to launch the board this week at the World Economic Forum in Davos alongside leaders from several Muslim-majority and Arab nations who have also joined the initiative. While proponents highlight the potential for a coordinated international response to Gaza’s humanitarian crisis critics caution that the board’s impact on established diplomatic channels and long-term peace efforts remains uncertain as Pakistan aims to play a constructive role in shaping practical solutions while balancing global and regional interests.
