US Rep. Carter Nominates Trump for Nobel Peace Prize Over Israel-Iran Ceasefire

U.S. Representative Buddy Carter of Georgia has nominated President Donald J. Trump for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for his pivotal role in brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, which helped prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Carter praised Trump's decisive leadership and bold actions that halted hostilities and promoted peace through strength in a historically volatile region. He described Trump's efforts as exemplifying the ideals of the Nobel Peace Prize, including the pursuit of peace, prevention of war, and advancement of international harmony. Despite some violations of the ceasefire agreement by both parties, Trump maintained that the ceasefire remains in effect. The nomination highlights Trump's influence in forging what many saw as an unlikely swift agreement and preserving lives across the Middle East. This nomination follows other recognitions of Trump's diplomatic contributions, including Pakistan's recommendation of him for the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in the India-Pakistan crisis.
