After missing out on Nobel, Trump to get Israel’s highest honour for brokering peace in Gaza
The Island
|October 14, 2025
Just days after US President Donald Trump missed out on the Nobel Peace Prize to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, Israel has decided to honour him in its own way.
-
Israeli President Isaac Herzog announced that Trump will receive the country’s highest civilian award, the Israeli Presidential Medal of Honour, during his visit to Israel on Monday.
The decision, seen by many as a symbolic show of gratitude, comes as Trump is credited with brokering the Gaza ceasefire deal and securing the release of hostages.
According to Herzog, the award recognises Trump's role in securing the release of hostages from Gaza and helping bring an end to the ongoing war.
“Through his tireless efforts, President Trump has not only helped bring our loved ones home but has also laid the foundations for a new era in the Middle East built on security, cooperation, and genuine hope for a peaceful future,” Herzog’s office said in a statement.
“Tt will be a great honour for me to present him with the Israeli Presidential Medal of Honour,” the statement added.
