Clinton Offers Trump Nobel Nomination if He Brokers Ukraine Peace

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she would nominate President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize if he succeeds in brokering an end to Russia’s war on Ukraine. Clinton made the remark during an appearance on Jessica Tarlov’s podcast, adding that the nomination would depend on Trump reaching an agreement that does not “capitulate to Putin.” Asked about the comment in a Fox News interview with Bret Baier aboard Air Force One, Trump called Clinton’s offer “very nice,” joking that he “may have to start liking her again.” The exchange came as Trump traveled to Alaska for a planned summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin aimed at exploring a possible cease-fire in Ukraine. The interaction underscores an unexpected moment of bipartisan support between the 2016 rivals as diplomatic efforts intensify. While no details of a prospective peace framework have emerged, both Clinton’s public pledge and Trump’s response highlight the political stakes surrounding any potential resolution of the 17-month conflict.
