On November 17, the UNSC passed Resolution 2803, establishing a “Peace Council” led by President Trump to oversee Gaza’s reconstruction and coordinate humanitarian aid, contingent on cooperation with this body. Critics argue the council operates outside international law, reflecting U.S. interests rather than a neutral authority, and raises concerns about entrenching U.S. political control over Palestine. The resolution diverges from prior UN frameworks, failing to reaffirm territorial integrity for Gaza and conditioning Palestinian self-determination. It has been viewed as a unilateral American initiative that risks fragmenting Palestinian legitimacy and reinforcing occupation dynamics.
