Netanyahu nominates Trump for Nobel Peace Prize after meeting at White House, Gaza ceasefire discussed
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that he has nominated US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, an honour the American leader has long coveted after one of his predecessor's, Barack Obama, received it in 2009. Netanyahu handed a copy of the letter to Trump which he had sent to the Norwegian Nobel Committee with his name in the nomination form. Netanyahu described Trump's 'leadership of a just cause' as he allowed US planes to enter the Iranian airspace and target its nuclear facilities last month, which also brought a 12-day Israel-Iran conflict to an end. Netanyahu termed Trump in the 'pursuit of peace and security' in 'many lands' as the Israeli prime minister praised the US president's 'extraordinary team'.

Netanyahu nominates Trump for Nobel Peace Prize
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday (July 7, 2025) told President Donald Trump he had nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize, handing Mr. Trump a nomination letter during a meeting at the White House. Speaking to reporters at the beginning of their meeting, Netanyahu said Israel was working with the United States to find countries who would give Palestinians a better future. The honor was 'well-deserved,' Netanyahu told Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump has long called himself a master peacemaker and made clear his desire for the Nobel Prize. Mr. Trump, speaking in front of reporters, said the nomination was news to him. 'Coming from you, this is very meaningful,' he told the Israeli leader. U.S. President Donald Trump is scheduled to hold a private dinner with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as families of hostages held in Gaza push for any ceasefire agreement to include the release of all remaining hostages. As the two leaders meet for the third time this year, the outwardly triumphant visit will be dogged by Israel's 21-month war against Hamas in Gaza and questions over how hard Mr. Trump will push for an end to the conflict.
