Pakistan has nominated U.S. President Donald Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize for his "diplomatic role and leadership" during the recent crisis with India.
A written statement from the Pakistani Prime Minister’s Office said Trump’s mediation in the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan prevented a large-scale conflict between the two nuclear-armed countries.
“Through intensive diplomatic contacts with both Islamabad and New Delhi, Trump made a ceasefire possible in a short time and prevented a destructive conflict that could have affected millions of people,” the statement said.
It added that Trump’s nomination for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize reflects his commitment to peaceful resolution and dialogue, confirming his identity as a “true peace envoy.”
The statement also welcomed Trump’s sincere mediation offers regarding the Kashmir issue, calling it “one of the biggest obstacles to lasting stability in South Asia” and emphasizing it should be resolved according to UN Security Council resolutions.
Furthermore, it said Trump’s leadership during the India-Pakistan crisis is a continuation of “pragmatic diplomacy and effective peacebuilding,” and expressed hope that he will continue to play a constructive role in global stability, including the humanitarian tragedy in Gaza and rising tensions after Israel’s attacks on Iran.
