President Trump invited global leaders to Washington DC to participate in the inaugural meeting of the Board of Peace. U.S President Donald Trump, U.S. Vice President JD Vance, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner all delivered remarks during the event.
Participating countries include Albania, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cambodia, El Salvador, Hungary, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Mongolia, Pakistan, Paraguay, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates.
The Vatican and Pope Leo rejected an invitation to participate, concerned the Global Board of Peace may overshadow the United Nations, and that would not be acceptable to the Catholic Church or the European Union. Full video of the event below:

Perhaps the Global Board of Peace can replace the United Nations, which has fallen into disrepute.
“The Vatican and Pope Leo rejected an invitation to participate, concerned the Global Board of Peace may overshadow the United Nations, and that would not be acceptable to the Catholic Church or the European Union.”
Imagine that/s.
A confessed shallow thinker, I despised the Catholic Church for decades of my life. At a point in my life filled with change and recovery, I accepted it, forgave, reconciled the greater good vs the failed humanity.
This triggers resentments I thought I had let go. The Vatican is very much a political body and not one that I want to support.
Are you Catholic?
I only ask because an “ex” anything is always their biggest enemy. LOL
No,but I am. I was away from the church for 30 years because of something similar. I agree with him 100% .The Catholic church siding with the Atheist UN and worrying about the atheist EU , is a joke.Thank G_D the Pope stands before the same final judgement as I do .
I know how you feel, DanQ. 😉
I was raised Catholic and turned away in my 20’s. I’ve come to believe the Catholic institution is a force for evil in the world. What good has the Vatican ever done?
The Vatican is very corrupt. I am a lifelong Roman Catholic. Many Catholics worship at a parish level and ignore the Vatican.
Just keep in mind that the Vatican has been and probably always will be a corrupt political entity but that doesn’t mean the message of the church is corrupt just the opposite, separate the wheat from the chafe. Keep the faith.
So replace throat cancer with ass cancer?
lol
That’s the general idea. That the so-called Western “democracies” are not on board should tell even the blindest among us what’s really going on.
the United States completely divesting itself from that corrupt, third world mafia (the U.N.) makes sense. Kick them to the curb, remove them from the U.S., take back the real estate and let’s move on with really getting things done according to the original intent.
It’s almost like the list of countries participating are the ones not controlled by global intel. But then there’s Isreal on the list, so what do I know.
Maybe it’s a list of countries not effected by TDS lol
That and Tony Blair managed to get appointed to the Board of Peace for Gaza. Globalists have a way getting embedded into the bureaucracy.
Be patient, trust PDJT. He invited Blair. There are reasons. He invited Desantis. He’s inviting everyone – on a new platform, sans the corrupted networks and controllers.
He got removed, from what I read.
That’s what France and some EU nations are pouting over – being left out.
Maybe the guy who puts America first is really the guy who will bring about the first generation of globalism…that being–of course, President Trump.
You’re a bit behind the times.
We’ve been experiencing globalism at least since WW II and many set up actions taken prior to that. Things ramped up more openly starting with the reign of bush one and then continued under clinton, shrub, and obummer, and steadily increased during obummer’s third term.
In fact, the Board of Peace is designed to counteract the globalists as led by the UK and the EU. That why you don’t see them participating in the Board of Peace. Up until the time of President Trump, the globalists acted freely all over the world to further their interests. Their main goal is to loot what they can.
All the participating countries have had enough, which is why they joined the Board of Peace.
You can find a lot of specifics about globalism at http://www.prometheanaction.com.
The word “globalism” immediately brings to mind: corruption, wars, fraud, strife, selfishness, poverty of the little people, smug bureaucrats who got wealthy by stealing from the little people, election cheating, destruction of white Christian nations through the importation of brown/black peasants, loss of Rights, smothered by bureaucrats, a media willing to assist the people destroying our lives, and “you will own nothing but be happy” sort of BS stuffed down our throats,
“…a bit behind the times” you suggest MsWords? Maybe you never learned those history stories where various groups were “fractured for generations” till a “great leader appeared” who brought them together into one glorious unit/nation, etc. I did say “first generation of globalism” where if one re-reads your posting you seem to underscore “the many who have not become one” (you left out Wilson’s League of Nations). Gibbons wrote about Rome and how it could not “rule the world” as desired due to those nasty barbarians; ergo, globalism as they knew it (desired) at that time.
I started my post with “Maybe…” Give Trump his chance, wait till you see the “glue” he attempts to employ.
Maybe you missed the exorcism-by-tariffs and bilateral trade deals?
P. Trump is a MASTER of creating circumstances that expose the evil guys, SO THE PEOPLE OF GOOD WILL & WISDOM will truly SEE THE EVIL TRUTH.
This is one of those ploys. The regular people have to be able to SEE THE EVIL CHOICES made by the evil ones.
Many Europeans are awakening. True leaders are emerging from the shadows, all over the world.
I don’t think that anyone could do what he does. Unique skill set, bottomless bravery, honest heart, and OURS!
Alexander the Great was the first successful globalist. The vast empire he conquered stretched from Greece in the West to India in the East to Egypt in the South and Bulgaria in the North. He worked to blend the cultures together and get them trading with one another. But he died and the real fun began.
His empire fragmented into warring factions historians title the “Wars of the Diadochi.” They were exceptionally ruthless affairs characterized by betrayals, assassinations, and the sacking of entire territories. Eventually, multiple kingdoms emerged including the Hellenistic kingdoms of Ptolemaic in Egypt and the Seleucid Empire in Persia.
You can still see the ancient Greek’s blue and green eyes amongst the population of Northern India and Pakistan.
You have the right focus and understanding.
Thank you. May you live long and prosper.
Go back to X. The other ignorant fools will give you likes.
The Board of Peace will work so well you’ll be bored of peace.
<The Board of Peace will work so well you’ll be bored of peace.>
I eat carrots when I’m bored of peas 🙂
See there WORDMAN? You have taught (or corrupted) many of us! LOL
<You have taught…many of us!>
Thanks, BD!
It’s been hard, because growing up I was only taught 25 letters of the alphabet…
I never knew y 🙂
Snort 😄
I rest my case! 🙂
So long as they’re not whirled peas, I simply can’t imagine that nor strawn together.
Some day we’ll have whirled peas.
Only President Trump gets Israel and the Saudis in the same room discussing peace! The UN / Catholic Church are on the wrong side of history.
The UN is usually on the wrong side of everything and the Catholic Church should stay out of global politics.
Rule #62….”don’t take yourself too damn seriously.”
What Rule Book are we talking about here?
Bibi will screw that up if he can. He’s gone mad.
1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJV/ESV), which warns: “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
Sorry just not buying into all this hopium like so many are of this Board of Peace. The wolves literally guarding the sheep here; and yes I’m prepared and ready for all the nasty, hateful comments that seem to abound now here on CTH.
Oh, my! Honey Baby, no one here is nasty or hateful. The truth hurts. Stop beating on it.
First don’t ever address me as Honey Baby; second you’re either new here or being condescending. If it’s the latter it’s not welcome nor necessary
LOL I am a Charter Member of CTH. And anyone as full of vitriol as you needs a little honey, baby. LOL
Perhaps you should look in the mirror before you post things. Save your comments for those that deserve it.
There can be no peace without the Prince of Peace.
I wish someone would tell this greatest of presidents that our/his good deeds can never get him into heaven.
Even he ; must come in by The Door,The Way,The Truth,
No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 14:6
And thank him for His attention to this matter.
Exactly
I have my own doubts as well but will pray for peace for all involved. Negativity, skepticism, criticism are human enough conditions. I choose not to dwell there for the most part…some days are better than others. Let us see what there is to see.
“Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.”
Matthew 10:16
PDJT conceived and created the Board of Peace. He has more than earned the right for all of us to listen when he speaks, having accomplished more in his 5 presidential years than any other president and against more resistance than has every been thrown at a president.
With all due respect, is this a serious response? “He has earned the right for us to listen when he speaks…” sorry but no, he is just as fallible as you and I are, and this sycophantic raising Trump up to God-king status is unhealthy. Last time I checked he isn’t Jesus Christ, though many seem to believe he is.
I’d recommend you thoroughly do some deep research into the money behind this Board of Peace before yammering on how we should just kneel and listen to the great and mighty Trump. Yes he’s a great President but please…put the kool-aid down.
Do you have a better solution?
Well certainly not letting the wolves guard the sheep would be a good start
I watched it earlier and completely enjoyed it. I believe he’s having a speech at 4 pm Eastern in Rome, GA too.
A little tweak at MTG!
The U.N., NATO, and the WEF are all joined at the hip so it is interesting to see who is NOT at this.
EXACTLY!
Just read where USA taxpayers will be donating 10 billion dollars to Gaza as part of the Board of Peace.
Thanks Trump.
How are we ever going to get a break if these politicians are always so freely giving our money away ?
Really getting tired of it.
What site did you read this at? I would like too read the article.

Thank you

President Trump spoke of the $10B when he spoke in the YouTube above.
Well I don’t watch videos, I prefer to read articles.
Gee, maybe the the Minnesota Somalis can chip in their $9 billion so it will only cost us $1 bil.
Not if they get a pardon and/or get to stay here!
Dear Lord!!! The modern Catholic Church is not what our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ had in mind…The institution is rotted…Why is the Catholic Church always involved in politics? If they need relevancy, why don’t they start tearing the Vatican walls down and throw those migrants a bone??? SMH…
It has rotted many times in the past.
But The Lord can bring the dead back to life… and has done so many times in the past as well.
Pray for The Church that Jesus Christ Our King bring it back to full life again.
“The Church” is the body of born-again Believers the world over. It’s not an organization.
Jesus did not die so an organization to be born, another Sanhedrin. He died so that each INDIVIDUAL could make a choice to repent of his sinful heart & conduct against God, be forgiven one time for all time, and be JUSTIFIED (counted as righteous by God) by FAITH, because of the perfect and holy sacrifice of Christ, as the SOLE REDEEMER of humankind.
The roster of esteemed members reminds me of Snow White’s “SEVEN DWARVES”…from Doc to Dopey!
It was a mistake for Pope Leo IVX to reject the invite. Not sure if it is a mortal sin.
To be fair, the Church isn’t a member of the UN either. They are a Permanent Observer State in which they can add their 2 cents into the debates and such but they don’t vote. Perhaps if the Board of Peace would offer them a similar role rather than inviting them to be a member, they would accept.
Interesting proposition.
Global Board of Peace sounds like something out of Orwell.
Especially as we now have a Department of War too and may be about to go to war (with Iran, the country that Russia is conducting joint naval exercises with).
War is Peace.
”The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.”
Washington’s Farewell Address
So much for America First, America Only.
Ummmm, this is the plan.
The Vatican and Pope Leo rejected an invitation to participate, concerned the Global Board of Peace may overshadow the United Nations, and that would not be acceptable to the Catholic Church or the European Union.
The UN deserves complete defunding and all member nations evicted.
doesn’t the Catholic church accept a lot of government money taking care of traficked people?
Yep. So do the Lutherans.
Catholic Charities is a non-profit organization that helps to resettle immigrants. There are many Catholic Charities; each is a separate entity under the control of a bishop.
Catholic Charities is not the Catholic church.
Can you point us to a written, official description of the full relationship between CC & the Catholic Church?
deleted original, posted underthe wrong comment
They sure get a lot of mileage and blue sky/PR out of using the label!
Exactly
Could be worse. Wiles could be standing right next to the President instead of in the row behind him. Won’t even bother asking what she’s doing there at all.
The pope won’t join the Board of Peace but has directed the Vatican Library to open a prayer room for Muslims. The popes have been involved in political intrigue since their inception, but now they have embraced communism along with the EU.
Ugh. Seems like the recent announcement that Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen is in the process of being beatified might be a feint.
Either that or perhaps, God forbid, this new Pope is in the early stages of dementia. The profusion of contradictory positions and public acts seems incoherent and scattershot to me, asthough he doesn’t know what he’s doing.
The UN “was” an interesting idea. But it is not serving any useful purpose now.
One good American idea deserves another.
Very good
Pope Francis was all in for the US invasion and Europe as well. He showed up in Mexico promoting his Marxist agenda. The cartels were loving people according to him and the Vatican mob. When is he going to become the latest saint? Strange the gates to the Vatican were never opened for the masses.
Full disclosure: Raised one but realized the antichrist is the church of Rome. God has no gate keepers.
Just remember ,your soul is your responsibility,the pope has nothing to do with it,he has a soul too.
I question why the leader of the original Christian church would be invited to join a political group. Were leaders of other religions asked to join? Why not? Did other religious leaders attend? What did they have to say?
The pope was wise to decline this invitation. I can’t fathom him debating political leaders. It seems to me inappropriate to invite him.
I don’t always agree with the pope’s opinion, this one and past popes. I take his position on non-religious matters with a grain of salt.
The Roman Catholic Church was NOT the “original Christian Church”. That’s false Catholic dogma, and is in direct contradiction to Holy Scripture.
Aa a roman catholic I am profusely embarrassed by our current pope. He is a disgrace to our faith and all Christians. Christ was the prince of peace and this pope does nothing to help bring peace to this world. I pray for his conversion.
I think the pope is doing a fine job.
He defined marriage as the church always has, as between a man and a woman, denouncing homosexual marriage.
He has also reinforced the church’s position against abortion.
I am proud to be a Catholic.

A brave lady.
And what task does Susie Wiles perform, minutes-taker?
This is very beautiful. Praise God.
The United Nations has been a failed institution for decades. It is a shame that Pope Leo wouldn’t support any attempt to bring peace to an area of the world where it is needed.
