Russian President Vladimir Putin has responded to US invitation to join US President Donald Trump-led Gaza Board of Peace. His statement comes after the US president on Wednesday (Jan 21) claimed that Putin had accepted his invitation to join the peace board. In his statement, Putin countered Trump's claims and said that the invitation was only under consideration. He also highlighted Russia's efforts and support towards global peace.
In his televised opening remarks at the national Security Council meeting late Wednesday night, Putin said, “First of all, I want to thank the US President for the offer. Russia has always supported, and continues to support, any efforts aimed at strengthening international stability. We also note the role the current US administration is playing in trying to find a way out of the Ukrainian crisis.” Earlier, Trump told reporters at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland after meeting with NATO chief Mark Rutte that Putin accepted the invitation. “He was invited. He’s accepted,” he said.

Trump's Board of Peace, oversees post-war governance in the Palestinian territory. On Jan 16, he announced the who's who of the board. It included Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff, President of the World Bank Group Ajay Banga, Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, former British prime minister Tony Blair, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and a Qatari official, among others.
