Trump Invites India to Join Gaza Peace Initiative
U.S. President Donald Trump has invited India to be part of a proposed international mechanism described as a “Board of Peace” for Gaza, according to official sources. The invitation was conveyed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as Washington explores options for post-conflict governance and reconstruction in the Gaza Strip.
What Is the Proposed Board
The proposed body is intended to focus on stabilisation, reconstruction, and future governance arrangements in Gaza once active hostilities subside. Officials familiar with the matter say the idea is still at a preliminary stage, with no formal structure, mandate, or timeline announced so far.
India’s Response Awaited
India has not issued an official response to the invitation. New Delhi has repeatedly stated that a lasting solution to the Gaza crisis must be achieved through dialogue, humanitarian support, and a two-state framework, while adhering to international law.
Wider Diplomatic Effort
The proposal is understood to be part of a broader U.S. diplomatic effort to shape post-war arrangements in Gaza. Other countries are also believed to have been approached, though no confirmed list of participants has been made public.
