Trump’s Board of Peace Denies Funding Shortage Reports
The Board of Peace, an organization established under US President Donald Trump, has firmly rejected recent claims that it is facing significant funding shortages. This denial comes in response to a Reuters report published on Friday, which alleged that the board had received only a small fraction of the $17 billion pledged for reconstruction efforts in Gaza. The news agency reported that this lack of funds was stalling Trump's plans to rebuild the Palestinian enclave. In a statement posted on the social media platform X, the Board of Peace characterized the Reuters article as fundamentally wrong and misleading. The organization emphasized its operational model as a lean, execution-focused entity that calls capital strictly as needed. It asserted that there are no restrictions on funding and confirmed that all funding requests submitted to date have been met immediately and in full. This public dispute highlights ongoing tensions regarding the financial logistics of post-conflict reconstruction initiatives in the region and the transparency of funds allocated by the US administration for Gaza's recovery.
