Cambodia’s prime minister, Hun Manet, has put forward U.S. president Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, citing his "extraordinary statesmanship" in resolving a border dispute between Cambodia and Thailand.
Mr Manet announced the nomination via a Facebook post on Thursday, which included a letter he claimed was sent to the Norwegian Nobel Committee. In the letter, he lauded Mr Trump’s intervention as an example of his "exceptional achievements in de-escalating tensions in some of the world’s most volatile regions".
