Trump, Rubio Broker Rwanda-Congo Peace Deal While Pakistan Proposes Trump for Nobel Prize

President announced on Friday that he and Secretary of State Marco Rubio had successfully negotiated a “wonderful” treaty between Rwanda and Congo, at the same time Pakistan formally put forward his name for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize.

In a Truth Social announcement, Trump stated, “I am very happy to report that I have arranged, along with Secretary of State, a wonderful Treaty between the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Republic of Rwanda, in their War, which was known for violent bloodshed and death, more so even than most other Wars, and has gone on for decades.”

The president indicated that representatives from Rwanda and the Congo are scheduled to be in Washington on Monday to sign relevant documents.

He then proceeded to discuss his prospects of winning a Nobel Peace Prize, asserting that he would not receive one, “no matter what I do.”

Trump wrote in the post, “This is a Great Day for Africa and, quite frankly, a Great Day for the World.” He continued, “I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for this, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between India and Pakistan, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping the War between Serbia and Kosovo, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for keeping Peace between Egypt and Ethiopia (A massive Ethiopian built dam, stupidly financed by the United States of America, substantially reduces the water flowing into The Nile River), and I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize for doing the in the Middle East which, if all goes well, will be loaded to the brim with additional Countries signing on, and will unify the Middle East for the first time in “The Ages!”

He added, “No, I won’t get a Nobel Peace Prize no matter what I do, including, and Israel/Iran, whatever those outcomes may be, but the people know, and that’s all that matters to me!”

On Wednesday, India countered Trump’s assertions that he had ended the conflict between Pakistan and India.

According to Reuters, Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri stated in a news release that “talks for ceasing military action happened directly between India and Pakistan through existing military channels, and on the insistence of Pakistan.”

Misri also noted in the statement that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi reiterated India “has not accepted mediation in the past and will never do.”

The mention of a Nobel Peace Prize occurred nearly two hours after a detailed post was published on X, formally nominating Trump for the award.

The post read: “The Government of Pakistan has decided to formally recommend President Donald J. Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, in recognition of his decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership during the recent India-Pakistan crisis.” It continued, “The international community bore witness to unprovoked and unlawful Indian aggression, which constituted a grave violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, resulting in the tragic loss of innocent lives, including women, children, and the elderly.”

Pakistani leaders affirmed that during a period of heightened regional instability, Trump demonstrated “great strategic foresight and stellar statesmanship” through “robust diplomatic engagement” with both Islamabad and New Delhi, which resulted in a ceasefire.

The post further elaborated: “This intervention stands as a testament to his role as a genuine peacemaker and his commitment to conflict resolution through dialogue.” It added, “The Government of Pakistan also acknowledges and greatly admires President Trump’s sincere offers to help resolve the longstanding dispute of Jammu and Kashmir between India and Pakistan—an issue that lies at the heart of regional instability.

The post concluded: “President Trump’s leadership during the 2025 Pakistan India crisis manifestly showcases the continuation of his legacy of pragmatic diplomacy and effective peace-building. Pakistan remains hopeful that his earnest efforts will continue to contribute towards regional and global stability, particularly in the context of ongoing crises in the Middle East, including the humanitarian tragedy unfolding in Gaza and the deteriorating escalation involving Iran.”

As per The Nobel Prize’s website, to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, an individual must be a “qualified nominator,” a category that includes national governments, heads of state, previous award recipients, and members of specific international organizations.

The nomination process is confidential, with submissions required by January 31st, which accounts for the 2026 nomination timeframe.
