Pakistan to Nominate Trump for Peace Prize
U.S. President Donald Trump has frequently claimed that his actions during his presidency averted a potential nuclear war and saved millions of lives. He often refers to his diplomatic efforts with North Korea, particularly his meetings with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, as historic achievements that helped reduce global tensions. Trump insists that these efforts, which included direct negotiations and a temporary freeze on missile testing, prevented what could have been a catastrophic conflict in East Asia.
Additionally, Trump points to the Abraham Accords — agreements brokered during his administration to normalize relations between Israel and several Arab nations — as another example of his commitment to global peace. Despite these accomplishments, Trump has publicly expressed frustration over what he perceives as a lack of recognition. He has repeatedly stated that he received no credit from the media, political opponents, or global institutions for his role in preventing war and promoting peace.
Trump has even suggested that his peace efforts deserved international honors, including the Nobel Peace Prize. Supporters in some countries, including Pakistan, have echoed this sentiment and proposed his nomination, calling him a “genuine peacemaker” who deserves acknowledgment on the world stage.
U.S. President Donald Trump has often claimed that his administration’s foreign policy achievements helped avert a global catastrophe, including a potential nuclear war, and that his efforts saved millions of lives. Despite these claims, he continues to express frustration over not receiving any formal recognition, such as the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump has repeatedly argued that his diplomacy, especially his interactions with North Korea and his role in the Abraham Accords, contributed significantly to global peace and stability.
Adding to the growing discourse, Pakistan has now publicly backed Trump’s assertions, announcing its intention to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize. The Pakistani government stated that Trump’s diplomatic intervention helped de-escalate a dangerously tense situation between Islamabad and New Delhi. While Pakistan credits U.S. mediation for calming military tensions, India maintains that the situation was resolved through a bilateral agreement between the two armed forces, downplaying any foreign involvement.
Under Nobel rules, national governments are among those authorized to submit nominations for the Peace Prize. However, there has been no immediate response from either Washington, D.C., or New Delhi regarding the development.
Trump, never shy about highlighting his perceived accomplishments, took to social media on Friday to reiterate his role in resolving major international conflicts. He listed a range of diplomatic efforts undertaken during his first term, including peace negotiations between Israel and several Muslim-majority countries under the Abraham Accords and claimed involvement in defusing tensions between India and Pakistan.
While the Nobel Committee does not comment on individual nominations, Trump’s supporters, and now an entire government, have taken steps to ensure his peace-making record is placed on the international stage for consideration.
