Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi has slammed Pakistan for suggesting US President Donald Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. This comes after the US bombed Iran’s nuclear facilities in Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz on June 22, 2025. Owaisi called the strikes a violation of international law. He also warned that these actions could spark a dangerous arms race in the Middle East.

Pakistan had earlier praised Trump for his “diplomatic intervention” in the India-Pakistan conflict. However, Owaisi pointed out the irony. “We should ask Pakistanis if they still want Trump to win a Nobel Peace Prize,” he said. The AIMIM chief also criticized Israel, which reportedly has 700-800 nuclear warheads but faces no scrutiny under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
The US strikes have raised global concerns. Pakistan’s Foreign Office condemned the attacks, saying they could escalate tensions in the region. “We are gravely concerned about further escalation,” the statement read. It urged dialogue and diplomacy to resolve conflicts.
Trump’s decision to bomb Iran marks a shift from his earlier anti-war stance. In 2019, he said, “Great nations do not fight endless wars.” Yet, analysts see the strikes as strong support for Israel. Meanwhile, Iran’s parliament approved closing the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil trade route. This could disrupt global oil and LNG markets, impacting countries like India.
India, a major oil importer, is closely watching the situation. Experts doubt Iran will fully block the strait due to its own trade needs. Still, oil price fluctuations are likely. For more on how this affects India, check out AMERICA NEWS WORLD (ANW) for detailed analysis.
Owaisi also said Iran’s uranium enrichment would take years, even if it pursued weapons-grade levels. Military action, he argued, cannot stop it. Instead, it risks further instability. “The US strikes violate the UN Charter,” Owaisi added, citing legal concerns.
Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar had written to the Nobel committee, recommending Trump for his role in easing India-Pakistan tensions. India, however, denied any foreign mediation. This contradiction fueled Owaisi’s sharp remarks.
The Middle East is now on edge. The US strikes follow Israel’s attacks on Iranian sites. Tensions could rise further if Iran blocks the Strait of Hormuz. For live updates, visit Reuters.

Why This Matters
The US-Iran conflict affects everyone. Oil prices could rise, hitting daily expenses like fuel and food. For India and the US, this means economic strain. Moreover, escalating tensions could lead to broader conflicts. Owaisi’s remarks highlight the need for peace, not war.
