Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair is reportedly seeking a senior role in managing postwar Gaza under a peace plan being developed by the Trump administration, according to the Financial Times. The newspaper cited sources briefed on the proposal. Reuters has not yet been able to verify the report.
The Financial Times also revealed that Mr. Blair has been proposed to chair a supervisory board called the Gaza International Transitional Authority. This move comes as part of ongoing efforts to address the situation in Gaza following the conflict.
Mr. Blair participated in a late August meeting convened by U.S. President Donald Trump, which focused on tackling Israel’s war in Gaza and planning for the territory’s post-war future.
Earlier in July, the Financial Times reported that the Tony Blair Institute was involved in a project to develop a post-war Gaza reconstruction plan. The think tank clarified that none of its discussions with various groups about Gaza’s reconstruction included the possibility of forcible relocation of people from the area.
