Pakistan proposes second Nobel Peace Prize nod for Trump over Gaza deal

Pakistan is once again throwing its weight behind President Donald Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize, this time for brokering a ceasefire in Gaza.

In a stunning move announced on Monday, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif declared his intention to nominate Trump for the prestigious award, citing the president’s pivotal role in securing a ceasefire and hostage agreement between Hamas and Israel.

This isn’t Pakistan’s first rodeo with Trump and the Nobel; earlier this year, in June, they nominated him for helping to halt conflict between Islamabad and neighboring India.

Trump’s peace efforts shine in Middle East

Sharif’s latest praise came during a high-profile gathering of world leaders in the picturesque Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, where documents sealing the Gaza peace deal were signed.

Standing beside Trump, Sharif didn’t hold back, even offering a brief saluting gesture to underscore his admiration for the president’s diplomatic grit.

Let’s be real—while progressive circles might scoff at Trump’s unorthodox style, there’s no denying that getting Hamas and Israel to the table is no small feat in a region often defined by endless strife.

Pakistan’s repeated backing for Trump

Sharif’s words were glowing as he addressed the crowd in Egypt, making it clear why he believes Trump deserves this honor a second time.

“Pakistan had nominated President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for his outstanding, extraordinary contributions to first stop the war between India and Pakistan and then achieve a ceasefire, along with his very wonderful team,” Sharif said, as reported from the event.

“And today, again, I would like to nominate this great president for the Nobel Peace Prize because I genuinely feel that he is the most genuine and most wonderful candidate for the Peace Prize because he has brought not only peace in South Asia, saving millions of people and their lives,” he added.

Gaza deal highlights global impact

Sharif didn’t stop there, emphasizing the broader impact of Trump’s efforts in the Middle East during the Sharm el-Sheikh meeting.

Isn’t it refreshing to see leadership that prioritizes saving lives over endless bureaucratic posturing or politically correct platitudes?

While some may roll their eyes at Sharif’s effusive praise, conservatives might argue that results—real, tangible peace deals—speak louder than the usual empty rhetoric we get from global elites.

Trump’s playful jab at Norway

Trump, never one to shy away from a quip, took a lighthearted jab at Norway while introducing other leaders at the event, referencing the recent Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado.

“Oh, Norway — aye, yay, yay,” Trump remarked with a smirk, adding, “What happened, Norway? What happened?”

That little dig likely had the room chuckling, but it also subtly questions whether the Nobel Committee in Norway truly recognizes game-changing diplomacy when it sees it, especially compared to Trump’s track record of brokering tough agreements.
