President Donald Trump said Tuesday it would be an “insult” to the United States if he does not receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his self-proclaimed role in solving a number of wars.

“Will you get the Nobel Prize? Absolutely not. They’ll give it to some guy that didn’t do a damn thing,” Trump told a meeting of top US military commanders in Quantico, Virginia. “It’d be a big insult to our country.”

Trump said Hamas will face severe consequences if it does not accept a Gaza peace deal that calls for the disarmament of the militant group.

“We have one signature that we need, and that signature will pay in hell if they don’t sign. I hope they sign for their own good and create something really great,” he said.

Trump also addressed the Ukraine war, saying Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy need to get together to settle the conflict.
