BREAKING: Russia and China are pushing to remove the proposed “Board of Peace” from the U.S. draft resolution at the UN Security Council for a Gaza stabilization force, Associated Press reports, citing four U.N. diplomats briefed on the negotiations. Russia and China are two of the five states with veto power over any resolution. The news comes as the U.S. circulated a second revised draft to the 15-member Council today. The plan would give a UN mandate to an international force through 2027, working with a yet-to-be established colonial-style governing board chaired by Donald Trump alongside figures such as Tony Blair, which would temporarily run Gaza until the “Board of Peace” and Israel deem the Palestinian Authority has “satisfactorily completed its reform” and can govern Gaza. Moscow, Beijing and several Arab states have raised concerns over the board, the absence of any transitional role for the Palestinian Authority, the weak language on a future Palestinian state, and the equally weak language on Israeli withdrawal, which would in practice leave the timing and conditions largely to Israel’s discretion. One diplomat told AP that Russia and China want the draft cut down substantially — limiting it to authorizing a stabilization force that reports directly to the Security Council, without the U.S.-designed governing structure. Here’s the document circulated today. Additional reporting is included in the thread below
