WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Claudia Tenney (NY-24) yesterday announced she formally nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for the third time in recognition of his historic Abraham Accords, citing his record of advancing decisive diplomacy and delivering peace through strength.

The nomination highlights President Trump’s groundbreaking work to advance peace and cooperation through the Abraham Accords, which resulted in normalization agreements between Israel and Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and Sudan, marking the first such agreements between Israel and Arab nations since 1994.

It also underscores Trump’s extraordinary diplomatic record in his second term, during which he successfully negotiated settlements to eight international conflicts within a single year, including Armenia and Azerbaijan, India and Pakistan, Cambodia and Thailand, Egypt and Ethiopia, Serbia and Kosovo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, Israel and Iran, and Israel and Hamas.

These diplomatic efforts reflect a sustained focus on de-escalation, dialogue, and negotiated outcomes unmatched in modern history, and President Trump continues to work towards achieving peace and stability in some of the world’s most volatile regions.

“President Trump has delivered something many said was impossible: real, lasting peace through diplomacy,” said Congresswoman Tenney. “I nominated President Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize for the third time, and I encourage all who are eligible, including my colleagues in Congress, to do the same through the formal process.

“Through the Abraham Accords, longstanding barriers to normalization in the Middle East were overcome, and in his second term alone his administration negotiated settlements to eight international conflicts within one year. Extraordinary. President Trump changed the course of human history with these agreements, his leadership has saved lives and strengthened international stability, and he continues to deliver peace through strength.”
