Who are the five Nobel Peace Prize judges deciding whether Trump gets it?

"Each year, the Nobel Committee, whose members are elected by Norway's parliament, award the prize, established under the will of Alfred Nobel, to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses. Nominations for this year's award closed on January 31, and the selection of the winner is shrouded in secrecy."

"The Nobel Committee was established by the Norwegian Storting (Norway's Parliament) in 1897 and is tasked with picking the laureates of the Nobel Peace Prize. The members of the committee are elected for a period of six years and can be re-elected. According to the Nobel Peace Prize's rules, members of the committee represent the strength of the different political parties in Norway's Parliament, but cannot be sitting members of the parliament."

"This year's winner will be announced on Friday at 11am local time (09:00 GMT), at the Norwegian Nobel Institute in Oslo. Since he returned to office in January, US President Trump claims he has single-handedly ended eight wars around the world. He has repeatedly suggested that he deserves to win this year's prize and has claimed it would be a big insult to America if he does not win."

Five members of Norway's Nobel Committee will select this year's Nobel Peace Prize winner, to be announced Friday at 11am local time (09:00 GMT) in Oslo. The prize was established under Alfred Nobel's will to honor the person who has done the most or best work for fraternity between nations, abolition or reduction of standing armies, and promotion of peace congresses. Nominations closed on January 31 and the selection is secret. The committee, established by the Norwegian Storting in 1897, elects members for six-year terms that reflect parliamentary party strengths but bars sitting parliamentarians; it chooses its own chair and deputy, and the Norwegian Nobel Institute director serves as secretary. US President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed he deserves the prize, saying he ended eight wars since returning to office.
