Cambodian President Hun Manet has nominated Donald Trump for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.
He commended Trump for his role in facilitating a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand.
The conflict had intensified in late July 2025, resulting in casualties and thousands of displaced individuals.
Trump’s efforts helped prevent further escalation, leading to a peaceful resolution.
In his official letter to the Norwegian Nobel Committee, President Manet praised Trump’s “extraordinary statesmanship.”
He credited Trump with preventing a potential devastating war.
The ceasefire agreement, signed on July 28, 2025, in Malaysia, has largely held since.
Manet’s nomination is part of a series of global recognitions for Trump’s peace efforts.
Pakistani officials also nominated him in June 2025 for resolving tensions with India.
Israeli officials extended a nomination for Trump in July 2025 for his peace-building work in the Middle East.
The Nobel Peace Prize announcement will take place on October 10, 2025.
The award ceremony is scheduled for December 10, 2025, in Oslo, Norway.
Trump’s nomination reflects growing recognition of his diplomatic efforts.
His actions have drawn praise from leaders worldwide, establishing him as a key figure in international peace efforts.
Though uncertain, this nomination highlights shifting trends in global diplomacy.
