Pakistan has proposed that U.S. President Donald Trump should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2026.
Axar.az reports that the suggestion, made on social media platform X, cites Trump's "decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership during the recent India-Pakistan crisis" as the reason, according to the Economic Times.
This nomination comes despite Indian authorities disputing Trump's claims of playing a significant role in easing tensions between the two nations.
Trump himself addressed the Nobel Prize question on Friday, stating he believes he deserves the award for several reasons, including his involvement with India and Pakistan, and for brokering a treaty between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda.
"I should have gotten it four or five times," the president said. "They won't give me a Nobel Peace Prize because they only give it to liberals."
