Trump withdraws invitation to Canada to join ‘Board of Peace’ after Carney criticism
Washington: United States President Donald Trump has withdrawn the invitation extended to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to join the newly proposed “Board of Peace,” escalating tensions between the two leaders amid growing diplomatic friction.
The move came after the Carney-led Canadian government indicated it would not pay to join the body, which was formed by Trump with the stated aim of addressing global conflicts, as reported by the BBC. Carney had also drawn international attention earlier this week for describing a “rupture” in the US-led global order, comments that appeared to challenge Washington’s traditional leadership role.
In a post on Truth Social late Thursday night, Trump addressed Carney directly, stating that the Board of Peace was withdrawing its invitation for Canada to join what he described as “the most prestigious Board of Leaders ever assembled.”
The relationship between the two leaders has been strained since Carney’s remarks at the World Economic Forum in Davos, where he said middle powers that had prospered during an era of American dominance needed to recognise a changing global reality. He warned that compliance with major powers would not necessarily protect smaller states from aggression.
Trump publicly mocked Carney’s comments the following day and said Canada “lives because of the United States.” Reactine to this, a sharp rebuttal came from the Canadian prime minister, who said Canada thrives because it is Canadian.
The Board of Peace was initially conceived to oversee the rebuilding of war-affected Gaza, but its charter does not limit its mandate to the Palestinian territory. The document describes the body as an international organisation aimed at promoting stability, restoring lawful governance and securing lasting peace in regions affected or threatened by conflict, and will follow the international law.
