Trump Renews Bid for 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, Claims Role in Settling Eight WarsPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump has renewed his bid for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, claiming he has settled eight wars and made unprecedented diplomatic efforts since returning to office in January 2025. Speaking from the Oval Office ahead of the prize announcement, Trump expressed doubt about winning, citing the Nobel Committee's reputation for not awarding "people like me." He criticized former President Barack Obama's 2009 prize and highlighted receiving Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado's 2025 medal. Some parties dispute Trump's role in resolving conflicts, and fighting continues in several regions.
