Netanyahu proposes Trump as a candidate for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

This is the third time that Trump has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The first was presented by the Pakistani Government on June 21, and three days later Republican Congressman Buddy Carter sent another nomination letter to Oslo.

Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, has officially nominated Donald Trump, US President, as a candidate for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, as announced during his visit to the White House.

The meeting discussed the US proposal for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza. Moreover, Netanyahu has praised Trump's work "to promote peace in many countries, but especially in the Middle East." The award "is well deserved and you should receive it," the Israeli president said.

Trump was surprised by the proposal, and was grateful, "Coming from you is very significant."

This is not the first time that Trump's name has appeared among the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize nominees. The Pakistani government presented his candidacy on June 21, recognizing his role in the truce that pushed between India and Pakistan. Days later, Republican Congressman Buddy Carter sent another nomination letter to Oslo on June 24.

Under the Statutes of the Nobel Committee, candidates may be nominated by the Governments of the Sovereign States and by the members of the National Assemblies.

Trump has repeatedly expressed his desire to receive the award, which Barack Obamadeserves as much or more than in 2009. As an example of this, he has cited his government's attempts to mediate international conflicts, including Israel's conflicts with Iran, India with Pakistan, Egypt with Ethiopia, and Rwanda with the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
