The Board of Peace is expected to try and mediate global conflict and has been accused of trying to replace the UN
Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace” has faced fresh ridicule after it emerged that nearly half of the countries on it are banned from entering the US under his travel ban.
Trump unveiled his alternative to the United Nations with great ceremony on Thursday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
He welcomed representatives from several countries on to the stage and said he was “friends” with all of them. They included Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bulgaria, Hungary, Indonesia, Jordan, Kosovo, Mongolia, Morocco, Pakistan, Paraguay, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan.
Notably absent from the address were any European countries amid reports that Vladimir Putin had been invited to join.
Anyone know what happened with Australia?
I assume we just plain were not invited because we’re unimportant, which is fine.
Australians don’t have a problem telling some skag to Fuck Off.
While that may be true, it’s not how international diplomacy works. We’re pretty far up Trump’s ass, partnered with AUKUS and the rare earth deal. I imagine Albo wouldn’t want to be involved but he can’t just tell Trump to fuck off.
