Asked whether he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize, US President Donald Trump responds, “Maybe for the Abraham Accords.”
Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump reiterates his claim that additional countries will normalize relations with Israel through brokering from the US. “We are going to be filling it up very rapidly… A lot of countries want to come into the Abraham Accords.”
Referencing the ongoing nuclear talks with Iran, Trump says the US is having “very serious meetings.”
“There are only two options. One option is not a good option at all,” he says, referring to a potential military option that has been threatened if Iran pursues a nuclear weapon.
But Trump indicates that might not be necessary because “we’re doing very well on an agreement with Iran… that one is well in its way.”
“We could have a very, very good decision, and a lot of lives will be saved,” Trump adds.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
