Illegal immigrants have overrun America’s southern border; separate wars have been launched in Europe and the Middle East; Yemeni pirates have stymied world commerce with attacks on freighters; China is threatening a takeover of Taiwan; most seriously, five U.S. troops have died tragically in recent days at the hands of Iran-backed militants.
As the world looks and longs for peace, New York Rep. Claudia Tenney thinks of former President Donald Trump.
According to Newsweek on Tuesday, the Republican lawmaker nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Tenney cited Trump’s “instrumental” work to broker the Abraham Accords treaty in September 2020 between Israel, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates.
That reduced regional tension and led to similar agreements between Israel, Morocco, and Sudan.
Under Biden, Iran has been emboldened to foment terror across the region, including backing Hamas, which launched the vicious Oct. 7 terrorist attack on Israel, killing more than 1,200 Jews, including at least 32 Americans.
“For decades, bureaucrats, foreign policy ‘professionals’, and international organizations insisted that additional Middle East peace agreements were impossible without a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. President Trump proved that to be false,” Tenney said in a statement, Newsweek reported.
Newsweek added, “Tenney noted that the 1976 Israeli peace agreement with Egypt and the Oslo Accords in 1994 were both recognized with Nobel Peace Prizes, but so far, Trump’s role in the signing of the Abraham Accords had not been acknowledged.”

In her comments, the congresswoman added, “The valiant efforts by President Trump in creating the Abraham Accords were unprecedented and continue to go unrecognized by the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, underscoring the need for his nomination today.”
“Now more than ever, when Joe Biden’s weak leadership on the international stage is threatening our country’s safety and security, we must recognize Trump for his strong leadership and his efforts to achieve world peace.”
Newsweek noted that Trump has previously been suggested for the Nobel Peace Prize three times, related to the Abraham Accords.
Lawmakers in Norway and Australia nominated him in September 2020, while a Finnish parliament member promoted Trump in 2021.
Newsweek added that regarding the Australians’ nomination, law professor David Flint told Sky News Australia at the time, “What he has done with the Trump Doctrine is that he has decided he would no longer have America in endless wars, wars which achieve nothing but the killing of thousands of young Americans.”
