唐纳德·特朗普总统周二暗示其“和平委员会”(Board of Peace)“可能”取代联合国,这一言论可能加剧人们的担忧:该委员会本应负责监督加沙重建工作(且特朗普将无限期担任主席),最终却可能成为他试图取代80年前成立以维护全球和平的联合国的工具。
在特朗普发表上述言论之前,一些外交官已对该委员会的潜在成员构成、以及永久席位售价达10亿美元等问题忧心忡忡。与此同时,特朗普正前往瑞士达沃斯参加世界经济论坛,而他坚持美国应拥有格陵兰岛的立场已引发北约成员国的强烈不满。
白宫上周五宣布成立“创始执行委员会”,成员包括特朗普的女婿贾里德·库什纳(Jared Kushner)、国务卿马尔科·卢比奥(Marco Rubio)、特别代表史蒂夫·维特科夫(Steve Witkoff)和前英国首相托尼·布莱尔(Tony Blair)。
根据CNN获得的一份章程草案,特朗普将无限期担任该委员会主席,任期可能超过他的第二个总统任期。除非因“自愿辞职或经执行委员会一致投票认定其无行为能力”,否则他将一直留任。一位美国官员表示,未来的美国总统除特朗普外,还可任命或指定美国代表加入该委员会。
消息人士称,特朗普近日已向数十个国家发出邀请,预计本周在达沃斯举办签署仪式。
目前仍不清楚哪些国家会实际加入该委员会。尽管阿联酋和巴林等国已确认参与,但其他国家尚未表态,而法国等国则明确拒绝。
俄罗斯和中国也在受邀之列
俄罗斯是受邀加入的国家之一——这引发了人们对一个正积极发动战争的国家如何参与和平进程的担忧。中国和白俄罗斯同样收到了邀请。
“普京肯定会利用其在和平委员会的成员身份来破坏联合国,进而加剧美国盟友间的分裂,”前美国驻联合国副代表罗伯特·伍德(Robert Wood)表示。
英国外交大臣伊维特·库珀(Yvette Cooper)周二称:“普京不是和平人士,我认为他不应加入任何以‘和平’命名的组织。”
周三,以色列总理本杰明·内塔尼亚胡(Benjamin Netanyahu)宣布接受特朗普的邀请加入该委员会,尽管他曾公开对执行委员会中包含土耳其和卡塔尔官员表示愤怒(因他们参与执行20点加沙停火计划)。
部分官员担心,该委员会宽泛的章程实则是为了取代联合国的工作——特朗普一直对联合国持批评态度。随邀请一同发送的章程草案甚至未提及加沙。
章程将“和平委员会”描述为“一个国际组织,致力于在受冲突影响或威胁的地区促进稳定、恢复可靠合法的治理并实现持久和平。”
特朗普周二似乎证实了这一意图,他抨击联合国称:“联合国没什么帮助。我看好联合国的潜力,但它从未发挥其潜力。”他在白宫新闻发布会上对记者表示:“联合国本应解决我已解决的所有战争问题,我从未求助于它,甚至没想过。”
盟友表达担忧
法国拒绝加入该委员会,理由是担心这会建立一个与联合国平行的独立体系。
法国外交部发言人帕斯卡尔·孔法夫罗(Pascal Confavreux)对CNN表示:“当阅读该章程时,你会发现它不仅适用于加沙,而联合国安理会通过的相关决议明确针对加沙和中东局势。第二点是,该章程与《联合国宪章》的合理性存在重大争议。”
爱尔兰外交部长海伦·麦克恩蒂(Helen McEntee)表示,爱尔兰将“仔细考虑”邀请,但指出特朗普提出的机构“使命范围将远超加沙和平计划的执行”。
她在声明中强调:“联合国拥有维护国际和平与安全的独特使命,以及团结各国应对共同挑战的合法性。尽管它可能存在缺陷,但联合国及国际法的首要地位比以往任何时候都更为重要。”
周二,联合国人道主义事务负责人汤姆·弗莱彻(Tom Fletcher)表示,特朗普的和平委员会不会取代联合国的工作。
美国前中东谈判代表亚伦·米勒(Aaron David Miller)对和平委员会取代联合国工作的能力表示怀疑。
“整个计划就像‘遥远星系的幻想’,而非地球现实的解决方案,”他对CNN表示。
“我不认为可以这样运作,”他说,“冲突的解决不能依赖外部组织,而需要调解人直接与对抗双方协商。”
米勒指出,尽管联合国存在“缺陷和功能失调,但如何取代或与一个自1946年成立、拥有安理会五个常任理事国、数十年来开展了大量人道主义和维和工作的组织竞争?”
“你无法与这个组织抗衡,”他表示,“它规模太大、历史太悠久,且已深度融入国际体系的各个层面。”
伍德指出,任何试图取代联合国的行动“肯定会遭到大多数联合国成员国的反对”。
“(和平委员会)能否在国际冲突解决机制中发挥作用,取决于它在加沙的实际成果,”他对CNN表示。
10亿美元购买永久席位
委员会成员任期为三年。若想获得永久席位,需缴纳巨额费用——10亿美元。一位美国官员表示,10亿美元并非“入门费”,各国也没有强制的资金义务。该官员称,只有“对项目做出重大贡献并希望进行有效监督的国家”才会参与其中。
“并非每个有能力支付10亿美元的国家都适合在国际舞台上监督和平与安全,”伍德表示。
一些外交官称,高昂的费用需要其国内进行研究。
“我们愿意加入,但必须研究,因为这需要相当大的财政投入,”一位受邀加入并需支付席位费用的国家大使表示,“这需要经济团队和预算部门进行大量研究。”
一位美国官员称,这笔资金将用于加沙重建。两位知情人士透露,美国官员已与建筑公司就重建计划进行初步讨论,但尚未敲定任何计划,甚至尚未形成草案。
米勒将这笔费用比作加入特朗普的海湖庄园俱乐部。
“我无法想象任何有民主程序的国家会愿意加入,还要克服将自身参与权交由特朗普否决的法律和政治障碍,更不用说支付10亿美元来超越三年的会员资格了,”他说。
然而,据一位熟悉相关讨论的消息人士称,一些未被邀请的国家私下对参与该委员会表示兴趣,甚至考虑支付10亿美元的高昂费用以加入其中。

Trump says Board of Peace established to oversee reconstruction of Gaza ‘might’ replace the United Nations

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.
Before Trump’s comments, some diplomats already had myriad concerns over the board’s possible membership, and the fact a permanent seat is up for sale at $1 billion. They come as Trump heads to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, and as he faces mounting anger from NATO members over his insistence that the US should own Greenland.
The White House on Friday announced a “founding Executive Board,” including Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy Steve Witkoff and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
And according to the charter draft, a copy of which was obtained by CNN, Trump will serve as indefinite chairman of the board, which could last beyond the duration of his second term as president. Trump will be replaced only due to “voluntary resignation or as a result of incapacity, as determined by a unanimous vote of the Executive Board.” A future US president can appoint or designate the US representative to the board in addition to Trump, a US official said.
Trump has sent invitations in recent days to dozens of countries to join and is expected to host a signing ceremony in Davos this week, sources said.
Questions remain about which countries will actually join the board. Although some, such as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, have confirmed their participation, others have yet to commit – and some, such as France, have declined.
Russia and China invited
Russia is among the nations invited to join – raising alarm about how a country actively waging war could be involved in an effort to secure peace. China and Belarus have also been invited.
“Putin would certainly use Russia’s membership on the Board of Peace to undermine the UN and, by extension, sow further divisions in America’s alliances,” said Robert Wood, a former deputy US ambassador to the UN.
“Putin is not a man of peace, and I don’t think he belongs in any organization with peace in the name,” British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper said Tuesday.
On Wednesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that he had accepted Trump’s invitation to join the board, even though he has openly fumed at the inclusion of Turkish and Qatari officials on the executive board for the implementation of the 20-point Gaza ceasefire plan.
There are major concerns among some officials that the Board’s broad charter is an attempt to replace the work of the UN – an organization Trump has consistently berated. The charter draft, which was sent along with the invitations to join, does not even reference Gaza.
The charter describes the Board of Peace as “an international organization that seeks to promote stability, restore dependable and lawful governance, and secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict.”
Trump on Tuesday seemed to confirm that intention as he took a swipe at the UN, saying his board “might” replace the international body.
“The UN just hasn’t been very helpful. I’m a big fan of the UN’s potential, but it has never lived up to its potential,” Trump told reporters during a White House press briefing. “The UN should have settled every one of the wars that I settled. I never went to them, I never even thought to go to.”
Allies voice concerns
France has declined membership on the board, citing concerns that it will create a separate system to the UN.
“When you read the charter, it doesn’t only apply to Gaza, whereas the resolution that we had voted [on] … at the Security Council of the United Nations was really targeting Gaza and the Middle East,” French Foreign Ministry spokesperson Pascal Confavreux told CNN. “Point two is that it raises very important concern regarding the rationality with the charter of the United Nations.”
Irish Foreign Minister Helen McEntee said her country would give the invitation “careful consideration,” but noted that the body proposed by Trump “would have a mandate wider than the implementation of the Gaza Peace Plan.”
“The United Nations has a unique mandate to maintain international peace and security, and the legitimacy to bring nations together to find common solutions to shared challenges. While it may be imperfect, the UN and the primacy of international law is more important now than ever,” she said in a statement.
On Tuesday, the UN’s top humanitarian official, Tom Fletcher, said Trump’s Board of Peace will not replace his organization.
Aaron David Miller, a former Middle East negotiator for the US, cast doubt on the Board of Peace’s ability to replace the work of the UN.
“The whole thing is tethered to a galaxy far, far away, not to the realities back here on planet Earth,” he told CNN.
“I just don’t see how you instrumentalize it,” he said. “Conflicts are resolved not by external organizations, but by mediators working with two parties in confrontation and conflict.”
Miller noted that even with the UN’s “flaws and dysfunction, how do you replace or compete with an organization that has been in existence since 1946, which has a Security Council with five permanent members, which has done a lot of very good humanitarian work and peacekeeping work through the decades?”
“You can’t rival this organization,” he said. “It’s too big, it’s too durable, and it’s too integral to so many different pieces of the international landscape.”
Wood noted that any attempt for the Board of Peace to replace the UN “would certainly be opposed by most UN member states.”
“Whether the (Board of Peace) has any future internationally as a conflict-resolution mechanism will depend on what it can accomplish in Gaza,” he told CNN.
$1 billion for a permanent seat
Members of the board will serve for three-year terms. If they want a permanent seat, it comes with a steep cost – a contribution of $1 billion. According to the US official, the $1 billion commitment is not an entry fee and there is no mandatory funding obligation for each country. The official said countries that “make significant contributions to projects and want to have proper oversight can stay involved.”
“Not every country that has the ability to fork out $1 billion is necessarily best-suited to oversee peace and security in the international arena,” Wood said.
Some diplomats said the steep fee was a matter their country would need to study.
“We would like to join but we have to study it because it requires a financial commitment which is a fairly high amount of us,” said one ambassador from a country invited to join on the fee for a permanent seat. “This will require a substantial study from our economy team and the budgetary process.”
A US official claimed the funds will go toward rebuilding Gaza. US officials have had early discussions with contracting companies about rebuilding efforts, but none of those plans have been finalized or even sketched out, two sources familiar with the discussions said.
Miller said the fee is akin to joining Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club.
“I can’t imagine anyone who has any semblance of a democratic process being able to join this and overcome the legal and political obstacles of surrendering your own participation to Trump’s veto, let alone shelling out a billion bucks to go beyond a three-year membership,” he said.
Still, some countries that were not invited to join are privately expressing interest in participating – and are even considering offering to pay the steep $1 billion fee to become a part of the board, according to a source familiar with those discussions.
