President Trump should be eligible for the Nobel Peace Prize after the “historic” agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, National Security Adviser Robert O’Brien told “Hannity” on Thursday.
“He brought into play the … vision for peace in the Middle East to get an Israeli-Palestinian peace plan back in play and he brought peace to Afghanistan, at least between the US and the Taliban,” O’Brien told host Sean Hannity. ‘We have not lost a soldier in Afghanistan since February 29 and we will be in Afghanistan after 5,000 troops. And now he has brought peace to Israel and the UAE.

“I mean, it’s a very remarkable record of accomplishments. I do not know who else would be in the running for a Nobel Prize if it were not for President Trump.”
O’Brien described the Middle East deal as an “enormous achievement” for the president, Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Zyad and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“What courage does it take for these men to come together and what skill it took for the president to bring them together to bring peace to the Middle East,” he said. “For the first time in 25 years, Israel and an Arab country have signed a peace agreement.”
O’Brien slammed White House senior adviser Jared Kushner, saying the Israel-UAE agreement, known as the Abraham Agreement, could be the first of many fruitful negotiations in the very near future.

“I think we’re just rolling here,” he said. ‘The president has already been in contact with other leaders in the region. His diplomats and our team have talked to people … I think we will see peace break out in a number of countries and even in some different regions. I think we will soon see something interesting happen in Serbia, Kosovo. ”
“The president is known as a great dealmaker,” O’Brien added. “History will remember him as a great peacemaker.”
