As President Trump seeks to establish peace in the Middle East, he has recently proposed a new version of the UN. The President has invited leaders from various countries to serve on the new council, though many have not yet confirmed their acceptance. The Ford School's Jonathan Hanson said that the council "Goes further and seems to want to replace functions that are normally assigned to the United Nations."
Although the UN Security Council endorsed the idea of creating a peace council for matters related to Gaza and the conflict in the Middle East, Trump's proposal goes beyond that with no clear operating strategy, explained Hanson. "He creates a separate structure in which he himself is the President, not as President of the US, but as an individual," said Hanson.
Leaders from France, Brazil, Israel, and many other countries have been invited to join the council. Trump has set a $ 1 billion admission fee for leaders who wish to join the new organization.
