Trump Criticizes Norway Over Nobel Peace Prize Snub, Links It to Policy Shift

US President Donald Trump expressed disappointment over not receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, claiming he deserved it for stopping eight wars and saving millions of lives. He criticized Norway, which hosts the Nobel Committee, accusing it of deliberately denying him the award despite clarifications that the prize is independently decided. Trump praised Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado for symbolically handing him her Nobel medal. In a letter to Norway's Prime Minister, Trump linked the snub to a shift in his global approach, prioritizing US interests over peace.
