King Mohammed VI of Morocco has accepted an invitation from President Donald Trump to become a founding member of the US-led Gaza Board of Peace, Morocco's foreign ministry announced on Monday.
"Morocco welcomes the second phase of Trump’s comprehensive peace plan, as well as the official creation of the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, which will serve as a temporary transitional body," the ministry stated.
Earlier on Monday, the Kremlin announced that Russian President Vladimir Putin had received an invitation to join the Board of Peace, and that Moscow was reviewing the proposal, expressing hope for future contacts with Washington regarding it.
This statement from the Kremlin followed reports from the Kazakh media outlet Tengri, which indicated that Trump had invited Kazakhstan's President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to join the board as well.
While the White House has not confirmed Tokayev or Putin as official members of the board, Kazakh Presidential Press Secretary Ruslan Zheldibay affirmed that "Tokayev was one of the first world leaders to receive an official invitation to join the Peace Council, making Kazakhstan one of its founding states."
Kazakhstan’s contribution to lasting peace in the Middle East
"In response, the Head of State sent a letter to the president of the United States expressing sincere gratitude and confirming his agreement to join this new body. The president reaffirmed Kazakhstan’s aspiration to make its own contribution to achieving lasting peace in the Middle East, strengthening interstate trust and global stability,” Zheldibay said.
When asked why the president hadn't addressed the invitation earlier, the secretary said they had found it "unethical" to announce the invitation before Trump did, “But the process took on a life of its own.”
Israel's invitation
Israel has also received an invitation from the United States to join the board, according to two sources briefed on the matter who spoke to Reuters.
However It has not been confirmed whether Israel will accept the invitation, and the Prime Minister's Office did not respond to Reuters's request for comment.
Additionally, Trump has invited Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko to join the Board of Peace, a gesture that Lukashenko welcomed, as reported by the Belarusian Foreign Ministry and confirmed by their spokesperson on Monday. Polish President Karol Nawrocki has also reportedly received an invitation to join the board.
Trump's Gaza Board of Peace
In addition to Trump's Board of Peace, other entities and advisers will be involved in executing US President Donald Trump’s vision for Gaza, such as the Office of the High Representative for Gaza and a Gaza executive board, as well as senior advisors joining the BoP.
Trump mentioned this board as far back as September 2025, when the peace deal was coming into view. Following the deal’s commencement on October 13, the UN also adopted a resolution endorsing the US-backed Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict.
This is Trump’s 20-point road map for lasting peace, stability, reconstruction, and prosperity in the region.
