Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nominated Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize during a White House dinner on Monday, praising Trump’s ongoing efforts to forge peace in the Middle East, including pushing for an end to the 21-month war in Gaza. Trump welcomed the gesture, calling it “very meaningful.” Negotiators from Israel and Hamas are currently in Qatar discussing a 60-day truce, while Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff is set to join talks. Netanyahu’s visit follows joint military action against Iran. Trump, eyeing a legacy of conflict resolution, said, “I’m stopping wars. I hate to see people killed.” (PC: X)
