Trump said that the Peace Commission will become the most influential international institution in history.
Trump wrote last night (February 15 Beijing time): "The Peace Commission has infinite potential. Last October, I released a plan to permanently end the Gaza conflict, and our vision was unanimously adopted by the UN Security Council. Soon after, we pushed humanitarian aid at an unprecedented speed and ensured the release of all living and deceased hostages. Just last month, more than 20 distinguished founding members gathered with me in Davos, Switzerland, to celebrate the official establishment of the Peace Commission, and proposed an ambitious vision aimed at benefiting the people of Gaza and ultimately achieving world peace! On February 19, 2026, I will meet again with the members of the Peace Commission at the Donald Trump Institute for Peace in Washington D.C., where we will announce that member states have pledged to provide over $5 billion in humanitarian aid and reconstruction efforts for Gaza, and have dispatched thousands of personnel to the international stabilization forces and local police to ensure the safety and peace of the people of Gaza. Crucially, Hamas must adhere to its comprehensive and immediate demilitarization commitment. The Peace Commission will become the most influential international institution in history, and I am honored to serve as its chairman."
[Witty] Comment: This so-called Peace Commission was not born for justice and peace, but is merely a private tool created by Trump to bypass the United Nations and set up his own organization. Under the guise of peace, it actually serves hegemony, buying seats with money and determining rules through power. The parties involved are excluded, and regional wishes are completely ignored. The so-called benefits for the people and maintenance of peace are just excuses, and the essence is seizing the fate of the Middle East in its own hands. An institution filled with self-interest and lies will not influence the world, but instead become a laughingstock of the international community.
Additionally, when Trump initially claimed a $1 billion permanent seat fee, it was clearly a way to collect money and attract people. Now he only dares to boast about a $5 billion total commitment, but never mentions how many countries have actually paid the $1 billion—so far, no country has publicly committed to paying the $1 billion permanent seat fee. Even Canada has openly refused to pay and was removed from the invitation. Major countries such as Europe, China, and Russia either refuse or are watching. The so-called $5 billion is probably a combination of scattered small commitments, verbal statements, and corporate/private donations. It's a long way from his original idea of "major countries lining up to pay $1 billion for permanent seats." The larger these numbers are blown, the more they expose that no one is willing to pay for his private "Peace Commission." The so-called "most influential in history" is nothing more than a self-deceiving solo performance.
