Only two countries have paid money to the Board of Peace initiated by US President Donald Trump, Reuters reports.
It is noted that earlier nine countries promised to allocate funds to the initiative, but so far only the UAE and Morocco have done so. According to the agency, the Board of Peace now has about $ 1 billion under its control, which complicates the implementation of the initially stated goal - support for the post-war reconstruction of the Gaza Strip.
Donald Trump announced that it was planned to collect $ 7 billion. In addition to the UAE and Morocco, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan and Kuwait had promised financial contributions. The United States was to add another $ 10 billion, and the UN - $ 2 billion.
