A: Hey Kenji! Did you hear about something crazy happening?
B: No, what’s up, Maria? What's going on?
A: Donald Trump! He’s creating this “Board of Peace” for Gaza! Apparently, he's going to have a big signing ceremony in Switzerland.
B: Wow, really? Trump? What's a "Board of Peace"?
A: It's like a new group, supposed to help with peace in Gaza. He thinks it’ll be super important and do what the UN *should* be doing.
B: Interesting... So, who's joining?
A: Lots of countries! Egypt, Qatar, and even Israel are on board. Putin, the Russian president, is happy about being invited too!
B: That’s quite a few big players. But is everyone excited?
A: Not really! France isn't joining. They think it's too powerful and messes with the UN’s rules.
