Trump stated that he established peace in Gaza and stopped eight wars. He nominated himself for the Nobel Peace Prize and also made a jibe at Obama.
Nobel Prize: U.S. President Donald Trump has once again expressed his desire to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump stated that he established peace in Gaza and ended eight wars. He claims that he deserves this award due to his accomplishments. Along with this, Trump made sharp remarks about former U.S. President Barack Obama, saying that Obama received the award without any reason.
Obama Received Award Without Doing Anything
Speaking to reporters, Trump stated that Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize just a few months after becoming president. He claimed that the award was given to Obama for “doing nothing” and “destroying the country.” Trump said that Obama himself didn't know he would receive the Nobel Prize, and that it was not appropriate for America.
Obama Received Nobel in 2009
It is noteworthy that then-U.S. President Barack Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009. At that time, only eight months of his term had passed. This decision surprised many and also drew criticism. Some argued that the criteria for the Nobel Prize should be more stringent.
Trump Claims: I Stopped Eight Wars
Boasting about his administration's achievements, Trump stated that he stopped eight wars, something no other American president had ever done before. Trump claims that he did all this not to receive an award, but to save thousands of lives. He said that whatever decision the Nobel committee makes is fine, but he did not have a desire for honor or awards behind his actions.
Trump Nominated Himself
Trump has often exaggerated his personal influence. Recently, during his address at the United Nations, he claimed that he ended seven endless wars and nominated himself for the Nobel Peace Prize. However, his role in the ceasefires attributed to him in various countries is disputed, and the respective nations have disagreed with this claim.
