We have a real problem brewing with the "Board of Peace" and it needs much more attention.

1) There is no legal entity for "Board of Peace" organized under the laws of any country, meaning it is subject to NO country's laws.

2) Trump is acting like the US is party to it as a treaty organization, but only Congress has the power to approve that.

Yup. FWIW the BoP's own constitution explicitly says Trump is chair in personal capacity, he personally controls BoP and he cannot be removed against his will by anyone.

It's being presented by media as some kind of US thing or international treaty but it isn't. There's no accountability or control at all.
