"He deserves it. He deserves it. And he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize so many times over," Trump told Gina Loudon of Real America's Voice, while hawking his new memoir "Under Siege."

"I've literally been in that office. I was in that office for one conversation where he literally stopped a war," claimed Eric Trump. "In fact, I was in the office recently for another one where he stopped another one."

"I mean, the amount of children, and I say children, young kids right now that are running around the world who are alive based on the fact that he stopped conflicts that otherwise would have spiraled out of control," he added. "There are moms and dads out there who have their kids based on calls that he's made and conflicts that he's ended kind of before they really got out of control."

Those people have "probably zero appreciation that many of their children and many of the people they knew would not be there had it not been for him. And he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize," Eric Trump concluded, adding his dad "deserves that Nobel Peace Prize, he deserves to be on Mount Rushmore and I think in time he'll get both."

Eric Trump did not expand on exactly which conflicts his father had ended.
