"White House Communications director Stephen Cheung accused the Nobel Committee of placing politics over peace on Friday after the Norwegian panel awarded this year's Peace Prize to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado instead of his boss, President Donald Trump. The decision came after Trump's months-long campaign for the honor, which he framed as international recognition of his role in brokering ceasefires and hostage agreements, including this week's deal to end the war in Gaza."
"The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace. President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives. 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. The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace. https://t.co/dwCEWjE0GE Steven Cheung (@StevenCheung47) October 10, 2025"
Maria Corina Machado received the Nobel Peace Prize for leading courageous defenders of freedom who resist autocratic rule in Venezuela. President Donald Trump had campaigned for the prize as recognition for brokering ceasefires and hostage agreements, including a deal to end the Gaza war. White House Communications director Stephen Cheung criticized the Norwegian committee on X, saying the committee places politics over peace and praising Trump's humanitarian role. Trump has repeatedly claimed credit for ending eight wars since taking office and predicted he would not receive the prize. Nominations closed before his January inauguration, making his latest diplomatic moves ineligible.
