OSLO — Israel’s Gaza genocide enabler, US President Donald Trump, has not been awarded the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize for 2025, despite having long and publicly coveted the award.
Several US allies, including Israel, have nominated Trump for the annual prize for brokering peace agreements or ceasefires. Trump himself has said he deserves the Norwegian-bestowed accolade that four White House predecessors received.
The Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded at the Norwegian Nobel Institute in Oslo to Venezuelan opposition politician Maria Corina Machado.
“She is receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela, and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy,” the committee stated in the announcement.
The White House responded, with communications director Steven Cheung saying members of “the Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace” because they didn’t recognize Trump.
“He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will,” Cheung wrote on social media. — QNN
