"The draft resolution is vague and unclear on many critical elements. The pen holder requests the Council to authorize the establishment of a Board of Peace and International Stabilization Force, which will play a key role in postwar governance in Gaza. It should have explained in detail their structure, composition, terms of reference, and participation criteria, among other issues. This should have been an essential basis for the Council's serious discussions. However, the draft resolution contains skimpy details on these critical elements."

Fu Cong, China's permanent representative to the United Nations, on Monday criticized a U.S.-drafted resolution on Gaza adopted by the UN Security Council, saying it is vague and unclear on many critical issues.

The U.S.-drafted Resolution 2803 endorses the 20-point Comprehensive Plan for Gaza announced by President Donald Trump in September.
It won the support of 13 council members during a Security Council meeting on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question.

Russia, which has presented a competing draft resolution, abstained, along with China.

"The draft resolution is vague and unclear on many critical elements. The pen holder requests the Council to authorize the establishment of a Board of Peace and International Stabilization Force, which will play a key role in postwar governance in Gaza. It should have explained in detail their structure, composition, terms of reference, and participation criteria, among other issues. This should have been an essential basis for the Council's serious discussions. However, the draft resolution contains skimpy details on these critical elements," Fu said at the meeting.

Resolution 2803 welcomes the establishment of a Board of Peace (BoP) as a "transitional administration" that will set the framework and coordinate funding for the redevelopment of Gaza "until such time as the Palestinian Authority (PA) has satisfactorily completed its reform program ... and can securely and effectively take back control of Gaza."

The resolution authorizes UN member states and the BoP to establish a temporary international stabilization force (ISF) in Gaza to deploy under a unified command, with forces contributed by participating states, and to use all necessary measures to carry out its mandate consistent with international law.

The ISF is tasked, among others, to help secure border areas, stabilize the security environment in Gaza by ensuring the process of demilitarizing the Gaza Strip, protect civilians, and coordinate with relevant states to secure humanitarian corridors, according to the resolution.

The ISF operates under the strategic guidance of the BoP and will be funded through voluntary contributions from donors and BoP funding vehicles and governments.

The resolution authorizes the BoP and the international civil and security presence in Gaza until Dec. 31, 2027, subject to further action by the Security Council.

It requests the BoP to provide a written report on progress to the Security Council every six months.
