Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that Kyiv will nominate US President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize if two conditions are met: the transfer of long-range Tomahawk missiles and assistance in achieving a ceasefire with Russia. Zelenskyy announced this on Thursday, October 9, according to Politico.

Zelensky noted that at the UN meeting in late September, Trump did not give a definitive refusal to the request for missile supplies.

"During our last meeting, I didn't hear a 'no' answer. I only heard that work would continue at the technical level and that this possibility would be considered." — the Ukrainian leader emphasized.

"If Trump gives the world—especially the Ukrainian people—a chance for such a ceasefire, then yes, he should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. We are nominating him on behalf of Ukraine." "Zelensky added, emphasizing that Tomahawks are capable of striking at depths of up to 2500 kilometers.
