US President Donald Trump invites PM Narendra Modi to join the Board of Peace for lasting Gaza peace and global conflict resolution.

In a significant diplomatic development on January 18-19, 2026, US President Donald Trump has personally invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to join the newly formed “Board of Peace” focused on bringing lasting peace to Gaza. The invitation came through a formal letter from Trump, shared publicly by US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor on social media. This follows the recent fragile ceasefire in Gaza and the announcement of Trump’s 20-point comprehensive plan for the region’s reconstruction, transitional governance, and long-term stability.

The Board of Peace, chaired by Trump himself, is positioned as a bold alternative approach to traditional global conflict resolution, starting with Gaza but with potential to address wider issues. India has received the invite, but no official response from New Delhi has been confirmed yet. This move highlights India’s growing global role and comes amid ongoing India-US ties, including trade discussions.
