Israel and Armenia to Join Trump's 'Peace Council'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accepted US President Donald Trump's invitation to join the 'Peace Council', an initiative aimed at resolving conflicts globally. Azerbaijan is also participating in the initiative, having accepted Trump's proposal, and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is expected to join as well. Initially, the 'Peace Council' was designed to oversee the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip following the war between Israel and Hamas. However, the Council's 'charter' presented by Trump reveals that the initiative has much broader ambitions, seeking to contribute to resolving conflicts around the world. The participation of Israel and Armenia, alongside Azerbaijan, suggests an attempt by the US to mediate in various crises and promote peace and stability in areas of intense tension. This development comes at a time of increased geopolitical uncertainty and highlights the importance of diplomacy and international cooperation. Trump's initiative has sparked interest and discussion, as its success will depend on the ability of the parties involved to find common ground and commit to peaceful solutions.
