WASHINGTON — Delegations from around the world have begun arriving at the inaugural session of US President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace in Washington.

Trump and Vice President JD Vance will make opening remarks shortly, followed by speeches from a dozen other US officials and senior representatives involved in the Board of Peace, which is tasked with overseeing the postwar management of Gaza.

Then, over a dozen foreign leaders from other countries represented on the Board of Peace will give brief remarks.
