US President Donald Trump criticized the Nobel Prize for the 2009 President Barack Obama in 2009. Trump said in the oval office, “He got the prize for not doing anything.
Trump grinned at 2025 Nobel’s Peace Price
Trump did not receive the Nobel Prize for Peace 2025 on Friday, despite confirmation from other Republicans, world leaders and himself. The price was awarded to the Venezuelan leader of the opposition María Corina Machado, acknowledged “for her tireless work supporting democratic rights to the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a fair and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy”, according to the Norwegian Nobel Committee.
The White House answers: “Policy over peace”
The White House criticized the decision of the committee. Communication Director Steven Cheung said, “The Nobel Committee has shown that they will place policy over peace because they did not recognize Trump. He has a humanitarian heart and no one like him who can move the mountains with mere power of his will.”
Trump himself commented and emphasized his successes rather than price: “They will have to do what they do. Whatever they do is okay. I know it: I didn’t do it for it. I did it because I saved a lot of lives.”
The Forum of Families in Israel also appreciated Trump and said: “President Trump’s unprecedented achievements in Peace last year speak for himself, and no price or deficiency can reduce the deep impact he had on our families and global peace.”
Trump’s nomination of Nobel nomination and lobbying efforts
Trump lobbied for a long time at the cost of Nobel Peace, quoted his role in mediating international agreements and the demands on termination of more conflicts around the world. Republican rep. Claudia Tenney formally presented Trump’s nomination in December 2024 and emphasized his diplomatic achievements.
Another nomination – presented after the official term – came from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister Huna Manet and Pakistani government, each of which was quoted by Trump’s efforts to resolve regional conflicts.
Peaceful efforts
Trump often quotes his efforts to resolve international conflicts, although some demands remain questionable. While he entered payments between Israel and Hamas on Friday, uncertainties persist about the disarmament of Hamas and the management of Gaza.
Trump also tried to convey Russian-Ukrainian peace with the peak on Alaska, which did not bring results, and continues to promote a strong global posture through trade wars, promotion of immigration and military interventions.
