SCRIPT Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented US President Donald Trump with a letter nominating him for the Nobel Peace Prize. In his third visit to the US within six months, Netanyahu earlier met with Secretary of State Marco Rubio at Blair House, the president's official guest house in Washington, DC. He also met with Witkoff. White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told reporters Monday that there are "many important" matters in the region. "As you know, the utmost priority for the president right now in the Middle East is to end the war in Gaza and to return all of the hostages. "Also, as you know, there was a ceasefire proposal that Israel supports that was sent to (the Palestinian group) Hamas, and we hope that they will agree to this proposal. We want to see all of the hostages released. That's on the top of the president's mind, so that will be discussed as well as the many other positive developments we've seen in the Middle East,” she said.
