President Trump has formally been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize following the announced Iran-Israel ceasefire. Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA) sent a letter to the Norwegian Nobel Committee to formally nominate Trump for the honor. “I write to formally nominate Donald J. Trump, the 47th President of the United States, for the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his extraordinary and historic role in brokering an end to the armed conflict between Israel and Iran and preventing the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism from obtaining the most lethal weapon on the planet,” Carter wrote. “President Trump’s influence was instrumental in forging a swift agreement that many believed to be impossible,” he added. .@RepBuddyCarter has nominated President @realDonaldTrump for the Nobel Peace Prize over Iran-Israel Ceasefire pic.twitter.com/oN4m0i5n9L — Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) June 24, 2025 Full letter: From the New York Post: Trump, 79, on Monday evening announced a cease-fire between Iran and Israel — and proposed naming the conflict the “12 Day War” — just two days after ordering an unprecedented US attack on three Iranian nuclear sites in support of Israeli strikes. Members of national parliaments, university professors, and others can submit nominations for the award, though Trump has made clear he doesn’t expect to win it. “I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize no matter what I do,” Trump wrote Friday on Truth Social after his administration helped broker a peace deal between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. “I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for this, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between India and Pakistan, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between Serbia and Kosovo.” In remarks to reporters, Trump noted the Abraham Accords of 2020, in which his administration brokered diplomatic relations between Israel and four Arab nations. “CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED! Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World,” Trump said Monday. “During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, ‘THE 12 DAY WAR.’ This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!” he added. JUST IN: President Trump Announces “Complete and Total CEASEFIRE” The Hill reports: Trump announced on Monday evening the ceasefire agreement between Iran and Israel. The two countries have been engaged in open conflict since June 13, when Israel launched its first airstrikes targeting Iran’s top military officials and nuclear scientists. On Saturday, the U.S. got involved, with Trump ordering U.S. strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities, which he declared to be “totally obliterated.” He advised Iran against retaliatory action, warning of the potential for future U.S. strikes if Iran missteps. Iran launched a limited strike on a U.S. air base in Qatar, resulting in no casualties. Shortly thereafter, Trump announced the U.S.-brokered agreement, which appears to remain in effect despite some early uncertainty. “In recent weeks, the world stood on the precipice of a dangerous and potentially region-destabilizing war. Yet in the face of this crisis, President Trump took bold action to ultimately champion peace through strength and facilitate a ceasefire framework that brought hostilities to a halt,” Carter wrote in the letter.
