Trump’s Reaction to the Nobel Peace Prize
U.S. President Donald Trump expressed disappointment about the Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to former President Barack Obama. After the announcement, Trump commented that Obama received the prize without any significant achievements. He questioned the decision and compared it with his own efforts in international peace initiatives.
Speaking to reporters at the White House on Thursday, Trump stated that he had helped stop eight wars, including efforts to establish peace in Gaza. Despite these actions, he noted that he had not been recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize.
Trump’s Criticism of Obama’s Nobel Award
Trump criticized Obama for receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, claiming that the former president had done nothing to deserve it. He said, “He got the award even though he did nothing. He doesn’t even know why he was given it. They gave him the prize even though he damaged the United States.”
Trump added that his own actions focused on saving lives and preventing wars. He emphasized that his intention was not to receive recognition but to promote peace.
Trump’s Expectations and Nobel Nomination
Since the start of his presidency, Trump has often mentioned his desire for the Nobel Peace Prize. He has stated that his administration worked to reduce global conflicts and end long-running wars.
Reports suggest that Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. The final announcement of the award is expected to be made soon. Trump’s recent comments were made in connection with this event.
