Rep. Buddy Carter (R-Ga.) who credited U.S. President Donald Trump with brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran and halting what could have escalated into a broader regional war, has nominated the commander in chief for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.

In a formal letter to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, Carter praised Trump for his “extraordinary and historic role” in helping bring about the end of what Trump referred to as the “12 Day War,” according to Fox News.

Carter said the ceasefire “prevented the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism from obtaining the most lethal weapon on the planet.”
