Donald Trump wants the Nobel Peace Prize
Meanwhile, Donald Trump believes he should win the Nobel Peace Prize this year. One of the greatest reasons quoted on 30 September was his efforts to stop the war in Pakistan in Pakistan.
He claimed that he warned both parties that the US trade would stop if they continued the “Great Nuclear War”. According to him, his phone call ended the conflict within four days.

According to Trump, the head of the Pakistani army Asim Munir, “beautifully” appreciated Trump’s effort by saying that the US President had saved “millions of lives”.
At the same time, Trump added that he did not expect the Nobel Prize for this work.
“Will you get the Nobel Prize? Certainly not. They give it to some guys who haven’t done a damn thing,” Trump said.
“It would be a great insult to our country, I will tell you. I don’t want it, I want the country to get it. It should get it because there was never anything like that,” he added.
Will Donald Trump win the Nobel Peace Prize 2025?
This year, the leaders of Cambodia, Israel and Pakistan claimed to nominate former US President Donald Trump. However, these nominations came after the deadline of January 31. These are therefore invalid.
Some of Nobel’s experts also claim that Trump has weakened global cooperation, which caused his chances to be unlikely.
“He has no chance of winning the Peace Award at all,” Asle Sveen, Nobel’s historian Asle Sveen, quoted.

Among the reasons why he did not get it, Sveen quoted the support of the US President for Israel in the Gaza War. He also mentioned Trump’s attempts to be more friendly with Russian President Vladimir Putin as one of the reasons why they work against him.
“He withdrew the US from the World Health Organization AZ Paris Agreement on Climate. He launched a trade war with old friends and allies. This is not exactly what we are thinking about when we think about the peace president or someone who is really interested in supporting peace,” Sveen added.
Instead, the committee may turn attention to humanitarian organizations, journalists or UN bodies working on custom and stability.
So far four US presidents have received the Nobel Peace Prize: Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama.
