A senior U.S. official has declared former President Donald Trump the leading candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize, citing his recent diplomatic achievements. Steve Whitkoff, Special Envoy to the President, made the statement following Trump’s claims of resolving complex international matters within months.
The endorsement comes amid growing international discussion about potential Nobel recognition for Trump’s foreign policy efforts. Multiple political figures have reportedly suggested his nomination based on recent developments in conflict regions.
In related comments, Trump addressed the ongoing tensions between Russia and Ukraine, suggesting shared responsibility for the situation. “It takes two to tango,” the former president remarked, indicating that Ukrainian leadership bears some accountability in the protracted conflict.
The Nobel Peace Prize nominations process typically sees numerous candidates proposed annually by qualified nominators, including government officials, university professors, and previous laureates.
