Pakistan nominates Donald Trump for 2026 Nobel Peace Prize
Pakistan has nominated Donald Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, recognizing his role in preventing a war between India and Pakistan.
The Government of Pakistan has announced that it will nominate Donald Trump, the President of the United States, for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize. Islamabad stated that this decision follows Trump’s “pivotal diplomatic leadership” in resolving a serious military standoff between Pakistan and India.
According to an official statement published on Pakistan’s social media platforms, Trump’s “decisive intervention and diplomatic leadership” played a key role in defusing a tense crisis between the two nuclear-armed nations. The statement credited him with preventing a devastating war.
Pakistan emphasized that Trump’s efforts led to a successful ceasefire, which averted the outbreak of a potentially catastrophic conflict. The government lauded his commitment to dialogue and peacebuilding under extremely challenging circumstances.
The statement also recognized Trump’s past and present contributions to mediating the long-standing Kashmir dispute. Islamabad hailed his sustained interest in achieving lasting peace in South Asia as a testament to his sincere dedication.
This announcement comes after Trump recently told the media that he deserved a Nobel Peace Prize for preventing a war between India and Pakistan. “I stopped them from going to war,” he asserted, criticizing the award committee for giving prizes “only to liberals,” as reported by The Guardian.
Pakistan’s formal nomination underscores the complex geopolitical landscape of South Asia and highlights the ongoing need for international diplomatic engagement. Analysts suggest that acknowledging the role of third-party actors like Trump could encourage further peaceful initiatives between Pakistan and India.
As tensions in Kashmir continue to impact regional stability, Pakistan’s move may also draw attention to the unresolved territorial issue. According to Al Jazeera, Islamabad insists that true peace is impossible without a fair settlement in line with UN resolutions, and hopes the Nobel nomination will spotlight the necessity of sustained, multilateral dialogue.
