The first female Prime Minister of Japan, Sanae Takaichi, will nominate Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, although the 2025 edition has Maria Corina Machado as the laureate.

Sanae Takaichi, the first female Prime Minister of Japan, announced on Tuesday her intention to nominate Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. This statement was made following a meeting in Tokyo, where the two discussed economic and security issues. Takaichi emphasized the positive impact Trump has had on global peace, stating that she was impressed by his achievements.

Trump has already been nominated for this award by other leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet.
