Donald Trump and the Nobel Peace Prize
The Nobel Peace Prize has been criticized for being about the wealthy whitewashing their involvement in violence since its inception.
US 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 at the UN General Assembly, “Everyone says that I should get the Nobel Peace Prize for each one of these achievements.”
