Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan described the newly formed Gaza Peace Board as a historic opportunity to resolve the long-standing suffering of Palestinians and establish lasting peace. In a social media post on Thursday, he said the board would help meet Gaza’s humanitarian needs and lay the foundation for an inclusive and sustainable peace. Fidan emphasized that working alongside the people of Gaza could play a strong role in shaping the valley’s future and ensuring enduring stability.

Reaffirming Turkey’s position on Palestine, Fidan stated that a future is possible where the rights of Gaza’s people are protected and they can live in peace. The White House recently announced the creation of the Peace Board along with a national committee to oversee Gaza’s interim administration. The initiative, proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump, was adopted by the United Nations Security Council last November.

The Turkish minister’s remarks highlight Ankara’s continued engagement in regional peace efforts and its support for international mechanisms aimed at stabilizing Gaza.
