Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu. on Thursday, endorsed US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, following the US president’s announcement of a ceasefire agreement and hostage release arrangement between Israel and Hamas.“Give @realDonaldTrump the Nobel Peace Prize — he deserves it!” was posted as a message on the official X platform from the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office, just a day before the winner is set to be announced by the Nobel committee.The Israeli PM’s office also shared an AI image of Trump celebrating while wearing the Nobel Peace Prize medal, standing alongside a cheering Netanyahu and other supporters.Neanyahu formally sent the letter for Trump’s nomination in July, citing his role in “forging peace in one region after another.”Presenting a letter to Trump during talks at the White House, Netanyahu had said (at the time), “I want to present to you, Mr President, the letter I sent to the Nobel Prize Committee. It’s nominating you for the Peace Prize, which is well deserved, and you should get it.”Meanwhile, while actively campaigning for the honour in the past, Trump seemed to downplay the hopes in the most recent statement. When asked about his chances of winning the prize, Trump told reporters, “I have no idea… Marco would tell you we settled seven wars. We’re close to settling an eighth. I think we’ll end up settling the Russia situation… I don’t think anybody in history has settled that many. But perhaps they’ll find a reason not to give it to me.”
