Will Trump’s Board of Peace actually stop wars?

Will Trump’s Board of Peace actually stop wars?

In Davos on Thursday, Donald Trump officially launched his new Board of Peace. Initially created to oversee the Gaza peace plan, the body has since expanded in scope. Led by Trump himself, the board says it will address global crises and conflicts. The initiative has raised concerns among traditional allies, while several controversial leaders have been invited to take part.

We speak to BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner about whether it could even replace the United Nations.
