The peace agreement in the Gaza Strip accepted by Israel and Hamas assumes the establishment of an international body that will temporarily manage the territory devastated by the war. The main body to deal with “governance capacity building, regional relations, reconstruction, investment attraction and capital mobilization” will be Peace Council, headed by US President Donald Trump.
On Sunday, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban boasted about the invitation on social media and was the first politician to express his willingness to participate in the latest initiative of the US president. On Monday, the Kremlin revealed that Russian President Vladimir Putin is also on the invitee list and is considering his participation in this body. In turn, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated that he was “talking to allies” about the conditions for joining the Peace Council. President Karol Nawrocki also received an invitation from Donald Trump.

What is Emmanuel Macron's decision?
According to Bloomberg, President Emmanuel Macron does not plan to accept US President Donald Trump's invitation to participate in the proposed Peace Council. According to Bloomberg, the American administration told countries that want to obtain a permanent seat on the Peace Council in the Gaza Strip that they must make a contribution of “at least one billion dollars” (approx. PLN 3.64 billion) for three-year membership.
The White House did not deny this information. He only stated on social media that “there is no minimum membership fee.” At the same time, he said the offer of permanent membership in the Peace Council was addressed to partner countries that “demonstrate a deep commitment to peace, security and prosperity.”
