Pakistan formally nominated US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, crediting his "decisive diplomatic intervention" in de-escalating the India-Pakistan conflict in May. The nomination praised Trump's "pivotal leadership" in averting a wider war between the two nuclear-armed nations. Islamabad and New Delhi agreed to a US-brokered truce on May 8th, following days of cross-border strikes. While Pakistan lauded the White House's involvement, India downplayed it. Trump has previously highlighted his efforts as a global peacemaker, contrasting them with his predecessor's actions in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the war in Ukraine. He also commented on the current conflict between Israel and Iran, expressing doubt about receiving the Nobel Peace Prize despite his efforts. Currently, a war is raging between Israel and Iran, with hundreds dead on both sides. Trump has set a two-week deadline for deciding on US military involvement. Iran's foreign minister stated that they will not re-enter negotiations with the US while under attack from Israel.
