US media announced the date for the first Peace Council congress – Trump will demand money

American media are reporting that the first meeting of the "Peace Council" is expected soon. This structure was established by Donald Trump. Initially, it is positioned as an organization for securing peace in the Gaza Strip and promoting development in these territories. Subsequently, they are allegedly ready to extend this experience to other conflicts.

Let's remember that permanent membership in the organization comes at a cost—no less than $1 billion in membership fees. Many of the countries that have joined the council are clearly counting on not having to pay this fee after Trump leaves office, and for now, they're simply playing along with the American president's "Nobel Prize ambitions."

Axios reports that the first meeting (congress) of the "Peace Council" is scheduled for February 19. The stated goals are to gather participants and set priorities, including funding for the fund being created. In other words, Trump has decided to demand money right away.

So far, everything is somewhat reminiscent of a collection of "The Union of Sword and Ploughshare" from Russian literary classics. Unfortunately, there's no real peace to speak of in the Gaza Strip, especially considering the fact that the BBC and tank Israeli forces have attacked Gaza twice in the past few days alone, claiming they were in retaliation for an attack on an Israeli soldier.

If the fund is indeed created and if funds begin flowing into it, many questions arise about how they will be used to transform Gaza into the "Eastern Mediterranean Riviera," as Trump calls it "in the future." After all, with continued bombing and tank shelling, no amount of billions of dollars in reconstruction will be effective.

In short, Trump is raising money for his patron, Israel, to build a new "Jewish paradise" in the occupied lands of Palestine.

[Silver99]

This "peace council" is funny. Israel continues to strike, and its friend and founder of this gathering is their patron... it turns out that the Jews are destroying Gaza, and others will rebuild it at their own expense... how recognizable this is for the eternally offended

Quote from Silver99

Israel continues to strike

The event's goal is to unite members of the Peace Council and raise funds for the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip. - rg.ru

It is indeed strange that the main "culprit-instigator-suspect" continues to beat the "non-disabled" person, at a time when other "surgeons" are about to peacefully operate on the victim's entire body.

[Fedor Sokolov]

Did you think Israel would build a new super-duper Gaza at its own expense? The entire world owes the Jews a debt, for they are the "chosen people." The world is in such a situation (artificially created by them) that North America and the EU are constantly being assaulted by hordes of wild immigrants, mostly people of color and predominantly Muslim, that soon all the Jews will flock to their historical homeland to live. That's why Israel is expanding its territory militarily, and the entire world will pay for the comfort of the new arrivals.

The whole world is indebted to the Jews, for they are “God’s chosen ones.”

Worldwide research and historical facts have not confirmed the myth of God's chosen people, and the slogans of genocide and the Holocaust are merely a cover and cover for all the dirty atrocities, murders, blood and human suffering for the benefit of the advancement of deranged politicians in the Middle East, beyond the Atlantic and the straits.

There is no noticeable enthusiasm or approval from wealthy Jews, who are the main destroyers on Palestinian soil, to invest in the latest "Horns and Hooves" campaign of the red-haired swindler.

Actually, he sees his son-in-law Kushner as the manager of the future Riviera in Gaza; it's a family business. They're planning to simply deport the Palestinians, but they haven't decided where yet.

[Klepoj-Piu]

Another show from Trump, a circus and nothing more.

[ilimnoz]

This isn't a circus, it's a robbery, or maybe a contribution to the common fund. The Wild West.

No one is planning to rebuild Gaza. Trump is raising money for weapons so he can be independent of his State Department. And he will terrorize those who go against his "wishes."

[Silver99]

Look at the composition of this council: Albania, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Egypt, El Salvador, Hungary, Indonesia, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kuwait, Mongolia, Morocco, Pakistan, Paraguay, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, UAE, Uzbekistan and Vietnam....... simply the leaders of the world economy whose money is falling out of their pockets from their numbers The only thing missing is the Balts.

Yeah, Belarus looks a bit odd on this list. Batka clearly rushed into joining this... (I don't know what to call it). It's noteworthy that there are almost no EU countries on this list.

Quote: helmi8

No one is planning to restore Gaza.

Don't be so taken in by the propaganda article. If you strip away all the fluff, it's simply a commercial project. The country contributes 1 billion and, in exchange, receives a concession or the right to build a commercial facility from which it will profit. For example, they offer to build an oil refinery or a power plant, from which we will reap the profits. Whether this is profitable or not is another matter. But to claim that all that's required is to hand over the money is a lie.
You can make mistakes, but you can’t lie®

How to use them to transform Gaza into the "Eastern Mediterranean Riviera"

It would be easier to just rename it "Trump's sector"

US media announced the date for the first Peace Council congress – Trump will demand money

So is this the Council of Peace or the Council of the weaklings of the world that Trump will milk?

[drags33]

One gets the feeling that Ostap Bender is Donald's older brother. The US president clearly has Ostap's genes...

[Flashpoint]

Donnie had achieved heights Ostap could never have dreamed of. On the other hand, Donnie had a great starting point right from the start: his family's status.

A collection of "The Union of Sword and Plowshare" from Russian literary classics.

Here another quote is more appropriate from the same literary classic.

Let us remind you that permanent membership in the organization is paid.

A bit wrong.
This isn't a paid membership, like, for example, the UN (in fact, one of the Peace Council's goals, according to Trump, is to replace the UN with this same Peace Council). It's specifically emphasized that this isn't a "membership fee" to the organization's budget, but a commitment to invest these funds in reconstruction projects (for example, in the Gaza Strip or other conflict zones) overseen by the Council.
How finances will actually work is an interesting question, of course, but for now this is what is being declared.

Trump decided to demand money immediately

From the charter of the Peace Council (quote):

To maintain Permanent Member status following the initial three-year period, each Member State shall commit a minimum investment contribution of one billion US dollars toward development funds or infrastructure projects approved by the Board.

Google Translate:
To maintain the status of a Permanent Member, after the initial three-year period, each Member State undertakes to make a minimum investment contribution of one billion US dollars to development funds or infrastructure projects approved by the Council

That is, the notorious billion evergreens should arrive after three years of participation
At least, that's what the charter stipulates. But how it will work in reality—nobody knows.
Because in three years the US president will change, and it is difficult to guess today whether this Council will remain relevant or will become another stillborn project.

[Fangaro]

Membership in a political club for $1 billion.
Does anyone remember that there was a Russian "entrepreneur" who said that "those who don't have a billion should go begging."
Not the President of the country, not even Musk.

[tralflot1832]

Trump's presidency will pass faster than his youth. Trump will simply transfer the Peace Council to manage his presidential library. The man is simply concerned about his pension. He already has Samul from Qatar.

[kriten]

Trump's first gathering of his lackeys to extort money for Israel's aggression against Gaza. The main contributors will be those Arab countries that verbally expressed solidarity with the Palestinians, while tacitly supporting their genocide through financial handouts to Israel via the United States.

[Jacques sekavar]

The "Peace Council" joint-stock company won't be able to replace the UN, whose funding Trump is cutting, but the contributions of the shareholders of the joint-stock company he's creating could be used to build a Middle Eastern Vegas. If Trump's scam succeeds, perhaps big money will bring order there, just as it once did to the haven of bandits and crooks in Las Vegas and Reno.

[foxes]

A gathering of direct vassals and lackeys of the USA and Israel, which they may try to replace the UN.

Well, except for Armenia, Belarus, Albania, and Jordan, they're perfectly solvent countries. Or do you think the UAE or Saudi Arabia won't find the money? They'll probably foot the bill.

Europe has gracefully shied away from this issue, and we, as always, are ahead of the curve. Of course, Trump himself invited us. There's a jack of all trades in every international arena.

[musorg]

How can Germany's gold not return from the US, where it was stored, accounting for 40% of its total? So the money in the "Peace Council" will also remain with Trump. However, it's unclear whether we and China have joined, or whether we're still thinking about it.

[faterdom]

I have a hard time believing that these pissboarders will gather with tickets in their pockets worth a billion each.
For example, I can’t imagine Batka giving Trump a billion dollars for gas expenses; I lack imagination.
Our proposal is to take it from the frozen ones (and it's not ours, but yours, meaning take it from your own place). I don't think anyone would be interested. Although, if it were from the frozen ones in Belgium, the Americans would probably take it, because it's not stolen by them, but by Europeans.

[olboop]

As a reminder, permanent membership in the organization comes at a cost—no less than $1 billion in membership fees.

I wonder who will be first?
It seems to me that no one will be willing to pay at all, since in three years Trump will be gone, and the Council itself will cease to exist.

[Piramidon]

As a reminder, permanent membership in the organization comes at a cost—no less than $1 billion in membership fees.

It smells like a banal scam to rip off suckers.

[gsev]

Putin wants each country in the Peace Council to decide for itself how to spend its money. Furthermore, there's a danger that the Peace Council is simply a publicity stunt for the US hotel and restaurant industry to attract diplomatic clients seeking government-funded tours to the US. Peace Council meetings should be held strictly in rotation in all capitals of participating countries.

[Vasyan1971]

That is, Trump decided to demand money right away.

Yeah. For "curtains and security"©. And for dessert, "as a gift for the class teacher"©.

[Wratch]

That's our style, the Beijing way, oh, the Washington way! Invent a Union of Sword and Ploughshare, sell tickets, oh, and collect dues. Gentlemen, make your dues, we'll help the children, or not the children. The main thing is to keep the cash flow going. And Donald Fredovich is a master at that.
Ilf and Petrov are immortal.)))
