Kazakh president invited to Washington for debut session of Board of Peace

President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev will pay a working visit to Washington on February 18–19, at the invitation of US President Donald Trump to take part in the inaugural session of the Board of Peace.

The summit’s agenda will centre on efforts to stabilize the situation in the Gaza Strip and to formulate concrete measures aimed at ensuring lasting peace, security, and sustainable humanitarian assistance in the region, Caliber.Az reports, citing Akorda press service.

During his visit, President Tokayev is also scheduled to hold a series of meetings with senior executives of major American corporations, underscoring the continued emphasis on strengthening economic and investment ties between Kazakhstan and the United States.

The Board of Peace, established by US President Donald Trump, serves as an international platform designed to formulate sustainable solutions for regional and global conflicts, with a primary focus on the Palestinian cause.

With the United States' traditional western allies conspicuously absent, US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace will have its first meeting on February 19 in Washington.

 Amid the spectacle of the leaders of more than 20 countries who accepted the invitation to join the board, most eyes will be glued to Trump.

 The board will meet with an announcement expected on a reconstruction plan for war-ravaged Gaza, along with plans for a Board of Peace-led International Stabilisation Force.
