Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says President Trump deserved to win the Nobel Peace Prize, which was won by Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado earlier today. "The Nobel Committee talks about peace. President Trump makes it happen. The facts speak for themselves," he says in a post on X, adding that Trump “deserves” the prize. Netanyahu was among the world leaders who had nominated the US president for the award. Nominations closed in January – the month Trump was inaugurated for his second term.
