“The Peace President” — White House dubbed Donald Trump following the Israel and Hamas agreement to pause the fighting in Gaza and release at least some hostages and prisoners. With the post on X, White House seems
to have taken advantage of the timing as Trump’s Gaza deal comes just a day before the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2025.
Notably, Trump has been very vocally eying the Nobel Peace Prize in reference to his claims of settling ‘seven’ global conflicts.

The 79-year-old US President, who has repeatedly taken credit for brokering peace between India and Pakistan — despite New Delhi’s denial — is himself being speculative of his nomination and has hinted that the Norwegian Nobel Committee “will find a reason” to not consider him for the global recognition that he believes he deserves.
“I have no idea… Marco (Secretary of State Rubio) 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,” Trump said, referring to Washington’s efforts to broker peace between Israel and Hamas and between Russia and Ukraine.
In fact, the US President had even said that if he faced a Nobel snub, it would be a “big insult” to the US and the prize would be awarded to someone who didn’t do a damn thing. “I don’t want it. I want the country to get it,” the US President had said.
However, Trump has left no opportunity to highlight his ‘achievements’ in the past few months and has publicly claimed that he should be honoured with the Nobel prize for his peace initiatives by ending several wars between different countries. Be it his address at the 80th United Nations General Assembly session last month or the White House’s latest tweet, the goal is for the 79-year-old Republican to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
