ISLAMABAD: Chairman of Pakistan’s Senate, Sadiq Sanjrani, through a letter, has officially nominated Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for the “Nobel Peace Prize.”

Chairman Senate, through a letter, addressed to the Norwegian Nobel Committee on Wednesday, favours Turkish President Erdogan for his efforts to resolve the Ukrainian crisis, said a press release issued.

Chairman Senate further added that the Turkish President is a true leader and statesman who always strives for the prosperity and betterment of his country, the region, and the world in general.

Chairman Senate underlined that the Turkish President Erdogan carries the true message conveyed by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) and the prophet’s teachings of love, peace, and tolerance for all humanity as he continues to remove the myths and misconceptions of Islamic teachings.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee is tasked with deciding and assessing upon giving out one of the most prestigious and illustrious awards.

As the late Alfred Bernhard Nobel envisioned in his will, the Nobel Peace Prize award is given out to persons who have taken exceptional action to resolve looming or ongoing conflicts toward peace.
