Israel’s prime minister says a former U.N. Mideast envoy, Bulgarian diplomat Nickolay Mladenov, has been chosen to serve as the director-general for U.S. President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace aimed at overseeing the peace process in Gaza. The appointment marks an important step forward for Trump’s Mideast peace plan, which has stalled since an October ceasefire ending more than two years of fighting between Israel and Hamas.
