Slovenia rejects the invitation to join the Peace Council. The Prime Minister explains the decision
— The main problem is that the Council's mandate is too broad and could dangerously undermine the international order based on the United Nations Charter, Golob said.
— While we consider any initiative that can calm the situation in the Middle East to be laudable, this invitation dangerously undermines the broader international order – said the Slovenian Prime Minister.

Peace Council. Thursday is an important day
The founding document of the Peace Council, which is an initiative of President Trump, is to be signed in Davos on Thursday. Member states of this organization are to be elected by the American leader for three-year terms, unless they pay at least $1 billion for the privilege of permanent membership.
At first, the Peace Council was presented as a body overseeing the interim government in the Gaza Strip. Draft documents published in the press indicate that it is to be a new international organization dealing with, among others, resolving conflicts around the world. Trump is to be its president for life, with very broad powers, including the right to elect members and the board of directors and the right to veto.
A representative of the US administration said on Wednesday that over 30 heads of state have so far accepted the invitation.
