The Trump administration has redirected $1.25 billion from the State Department to President Trump’s Board of Peace, according to a report in Semafor Thursday. The money was intended to fund disaster relief and peacekeeping operations but is now being used to help fulfill Trump’s pledge to provide more than $1 billion for the board.  

According to Semafor’s Eleanor Mueller, the Trump administration moved $1 billion from international disaster assistance at the State Department to the Board of Peace. Another $200 million was shifted from peacekeeping, and $50 million from international programs. 

Trump established the Board of Peace by executive order earlier this year as a vehicle to oversee the planned reconstruction of Gaza, though the mission has expanded to embrace the general promotion of peace in areas marked by conflict. Trump named himself as chairman of the “public international organization,” which nations can join permanently after paying a $1 billion initiation fee. 

Trump said last month that ultimately, he wants the U.S. to give $10 billion to the organization, which he described as “the Greatest and Most Prestigious Board ever assembled at any time, any place.”
