Trump says US contributing $10B to Board of Peace, Iran must reach nuclear deal or 'bad things happen'
Who benefits from this decision?
The U.S. is putting its money where its mouth is when it comes to the Board of Peace. President Donald Trump announced during the inaugural meeting of the board, that the U.S. was committing to contribute $10 billion to the board.
"The Board of Peace is showing how a better future can be built, starting right here in this room," Trump said on Thursday. "I want to let you know that the United States is going to make a contribution of $10 billion to the Board of Peace... and we've had great support for that number."
The president said that the contribution "sounds like a lot, but it's a very small number" when compared to the cost of war. Trump estimated that the $10 billion commitment was equivalent to the cost of two weeks of fighting.
"Together, we can achieve the dream of bringing lasting harmony to a region tortured by centuries of war, suffering and carnage," Trump added, saying that he hoped it could serve as inspiration for other nations entangled in conflicts that seem unending.

The Board of Peace was set up as part of the Trump administration's plans to end the Israel-Hamas war and to rebuild Gaza. Several countries have committed to joining the board, including Argentina, Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Egypt, El Salvador, Hungary, Indonesia, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kuwait, Morocco, Mongolia, Pakistan, Paraguay, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan and Vietnam.
While touting the significance of the board, Trump also encouraged more nations to join not just the initiative, but in a greater effort towards peace, singling out Iran in particular.
"And now is the time for Iran to join us on a path that will complete what we're doing. And if they join us, that'll be great. If they don't join us, that'll be great too, but it will be a very different path," Trump said. "They cannot continue to threaten the stability of the entire region, and they must make a deal."

The president warned that "bad things" would happen if Iran did not make a deal.
"Iran is a hot spot right now. And they're meeting and they have a good relationship with the representatives of Iran," Trump said. "And, you know, good talks are being had. It's proven to be over the years, not easy to make a meaningful deal with them. And we have to make a meaningful deal. Otherwise, bad things happen. But we have to make a …
