By Andrew Restuccia

President Trump positioned his Board of Peace as an alternative to the United Nations in remarks at the White House on Tuesday. "I wish the United Nations could do more," he said. "I wish we didn't need a Board of Peace, but the United Nations, you know, with all the wars I settled, the United Nations never helped me on one war."

Originally established by Trump to support the reconstruction of Gaza, the Board of Peace now has a broader mission to mediate global conflicts.
