A Norwegian official has submitted US President Donald Trump to receive the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in brokering the historic UAE-Israel peace deal announced last month.

According to Fox News, Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a member of the Norwegian parliament, told the US broadcaster that he submitted the president's name for consideration.

"For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees," Tybring-Gjedde, a four-term member of parliament who also serves as chairman of the Norwegian delegation to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, told Fox News.

In his nomination letter to the Nobel Committee, Tybring-Gjedde said the Trump administration has played a key role in the establishment of relations between Israel and the UAE.

"As it is expected other Middle Eastern countries will follow in the footsteps of the UAE, this agreement could be a game-changer that will turn the Middle East into a region of cooperation and prosperity," he wrote.

Tybring-Gjedde also cited the president's "key role in facilitating contact between conflicting parties and … creating new dynamics in other protracted conflicts, such as the Kashmir border dispute between India and Pakistan, and the conflict between North and South Korea, as well as dealing with the nuclear capabilities of North Korea."
