In addition to his efforts to resolve conflicts in Eastern Europe, Ogles and Stutzmann’s letter praised Trump for establishing a historic peace deal. Armenia and Azerbaijan“interact directly with regional leaders in the conflict in Gaza”, and the peace agreements he reached during his first term, such as the Abraham Agreement.

“Because of President Trump’s leadership, there are more people alive today, and there are fewer wars in the world than before,” Ogles told Fox News Digital.

“He is a champion of the first state politician in the United States, and proves that strength and prudence (rather than globalism) are key to continuing U.S. foreign policy. No other world leader can claim to stop the war and begin resolving hundreds of years of disputes.”

Stutzman called Trump a “peaceful president” and added: “No one on Earth deserves this year’s Nobel Prize, and multiple world leaders recognize this.”
