President Donald Trump’s suggestion Tuesday that his Board of Peace “might” replace the United Nations is likely to compound concerns that the body meant to oversee the reconstruction of Gaza – and that he will indefinitely chair – will instead become a vehicle for him to attempt to supersede the body established 80 years ago to maintain global peace.

Trump said he would consider steep tariffs on French wines if the country's president doesn't join a new Board of Peace to oversee war-torn Gaza.
