Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu presented Trump with Nobel Peace Prize nomination letter during White House meeting focused on Iran, Gaza and expanding regional peace.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s meeting with President Donald Trump Monday marks his third time at the White House since January. Unlike the previous two episodes, there’s no public events on the schedule – leaving the two leaders’ highly consequential Middle East discussion entirely private.

Netanyahu also nominated Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize and gave him a copy of the nominating letter. The honor was "well-deserved," Netanyahu told Trump. Trump, speaking in front of reporters, said the nomination was news to him. "Coming from you, this is very meaningful," he told the Israeli leader.
