📊 Analysis Synthesis

The Executive Order establishes a new office aimed at enhancing peace missions, centralized under the President's control. While it respects current legal frameworks and does not immediately threaten democratic norms or rule of law, there is potential for increased executive power if future actions are not transparently managed. Historical precedents suggest that with proper oversight, such initiatives can function without leading to authoritarian outcomes.
