Board of Peace very 'business&focused': Peace negotiations need to focus on 'conflict resolution'
Alison Sargent is pleased to welcome Christopher Featherstone, Associate Lecturer in the Dept of Politics and Int'l Relations at the University of York. Mr. Featherstone frames the “Board of Peace” not as a clearly defined peace initiative, rather a spectacle. Lacking long-term vision, it's a platform for Trump to maintain global relevance, under the guise of diplomacy, he argues. He calls particular attention to the performative, business-focused nature of the initiative, raising questions about its legitimacy & longevity beyond Trump’s tenure.
