National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien said Thursday that President Trump should be considered the frontrunner for the Nobel Peace Prize because of the peace deal between the United Arab Emirates and Israel.
"It’s really remarkable when you step back and take a look at what this President has done on the peace front," O'Brien said at the press briefing on Thursday. "And it wouldn’t surprise me — it’ll take some time in this environment — but it wouldn’t surprise me if the President is eventually nominated for a Nobel Prize."
"Today’s work is an example of why he would be rightly considered and should be a frontrunner for the Nobel Peace Prize," he added.

Iran said the deal between Israel and the United Arab Emirates was ‘dangerous and illegitimate’, state news agency IRNA quoted a statement from Iran’s foreign ministry as saying on Friday, in a reaction to a deal between the two states on normalising ties.
‘The shameful measure of Abu Dhabi to reach an agreement with the fake Zionist regime (Israel) is a dangerous move and the UAE and other states that backed it will be responsible for its consequences,’ the statement added, according to IRNA
