Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on Tuesday informed President Trump that she nominated him for next year’s Nobel Peace Prize — joining a growing list of world leaders.

A White House official told The Post that Takaichi privately “told the president she nominated him and presented him with the papers” in a surprise move certain to please the commander in chief.

Takaichi unveiled her nomination after the leaders signed documents declaring a “Golden Age” of the US-Japan alliance, including affirming a July trade deal lowering tariffs on Japanese goods to 15% and pledging cooperation on rare-earth and critical minerals in the face of Chinese export restrictions.
