MOSCOW, Feb 26 - Russia questioned on Thursday how U.S. President Donald Trump's Board of Peace would work with the United Nations Security Council, which has served as the fulcrum of collective international peacemaking since the end of World War Two.

Trump first proposed the board in September, when he unveiled his plan to end Israel's war in Gaza. Later, he said its remit would expand to tackle other conflicts globally - efforts traditionally overseen by the United Nations.
