Title: Establishing a White House Office for Special Peace Missions
Category: Foreign Policy & International Relations
Federal Register Doc. No.: 2025-12505
Related summary: Open executive order summary

Justification

This executive order establishes a White House Office for Special Peace Missions headed by a Special Envoy for Peace Missions with the explicit purpose of "bringing about the end of conflict and strife around the world" and "ending ongoing conflicts abroad." The order specifies that the Special Envoy shall work in coordination with the Department of State and Department of Defense, the primary agencies responsible for foreign policy and international relations. While the order does create a new government office, its PRIMARY subject matter and purpose is international conflict resolution and peace negotiations, which are core foreign policy functions rather than domestic government operations.
