Who’s on Trump’s board of peace and who has said no?

Jerusalem (AP): Several countries have said they will join US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace, while a few European nations have declined their invitations.

Many have not yet responded to Trump's invites.

Chaired by Trump, the board was originally envisioned as a small group of world leaders overseeing the Gaza ceasefire plan.

But the Trump administration's ambitions have since expanded, with Trump extending invitations to dozens of nations and hinting at the board's future role as conflict mediator.

A White House official has said about 30 countries were expected to join the board, without providing details, while about 50 had been invited.
