Trump Earns Third 2020 Nobel Peace Prize Nomination Thanks to 'Trump Doctrine'
President Donald Trump earned his third Nobel Peace Prize nomination of 2020 this week thanks to what is often referred to as the “Trump Doctrine.”
A quartet of law professors in Australia nominated Trump for the prize, citing the ramifications for peace of the “Trump Doctrine,” according to Sky News Australia.
Law professor David Flint explained to Sky News why the “Trump Doctrine” was so deserving of a Nobel nomination.
“What [Trump] has done with the Trump Doctrine is that he has decided he would no longer have America in endless wars, wars which achieve nothing but the killing of thousands of young Americans,” Flint said.
Reducing the American presence in the Middle East and bringing the soldiers home has long been an important tenet of the Trump administration.
“So he’s reducing America’s tendency to get involved in any and every war,” Flint added.
Trump’s first nomination this year for the Nobel Peace Prize came in early September thanks to the president having facilitated an agreement that helped establish a relationship between Israel and the United Arab Emirates.
The second nomination also came in September, this time for Trump’s work to establish a fruitful relationship between Serbia and Kosovo.
“The states are lining up, Arab and Middle Eastern, to join that network of peace which will dominate the Middle East,” Flint told Sky News.

Flint also offered more glowing praise for the president, singling him out among U.S. presidents.
“He is really producing peace in the world in a way in a which none of his predecessors did, and he fully deserves the Nobel Peace Prize,” Flint said.
