Trump’s Peace Fund Gets Zero Dollars Despite Billions Pledged
Despite pledges totaling $17 billion from the US and other world leaders, the World Bank-established fund for Donald Trump’s Board of Peace has received no funding, with reports indicating that any donations have been channeled directly through the board’s JPMorgan account. This account operates independently of the World Bank’s reporting requirements, and the Board of Peace has stated that contributors have opted for alternative funding mechanisms, acknowledging that while the board is being funded, these specific channels are not yet utilized. The Board of Peace asserts that a significant portion of its planned operations are contingent on its physical presence in Gaza and the disarmament of Hamas, which has not yet occurred, and acknowledges a lack of systems to manage the envisioned flow of services and goods.
