Donald Trump and the Nobel Peace Prize
The Nobel Peace Prize has been criticized for being a tool for the wealthy to whitewash their involvement in violence since its inception.
United States President Donald Trump announced a peace deal between Israel and Hamas, potentially ending two years of violence, just before the Nobel Peace Prize announcement.
Trump has repeatedly declared that he “deserves the prize”, claiming he has “ended seven wars” since 2017.
He stated, “No president or prime minister has ever done anything close to that,” and believes he should receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his achievements.
