He jumped on the bandwagon a bit early, It seems that the cease fire has itself been ceased.
You can bet the conflict that has been going on for over 75 years isn't going to end because a wannabe dictator insists it must so he can look like a hero and get the Nobel Prize he so covets.
Oh, and one more thing. They don't normally give prizes for people who try to dictate peace by way of dropping bombs on one of the combatants.
