"As the Norwegian Nobel Committee prepares to announce this year's winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, one name, one persona hovers over its decision the United States president, Donald Trump. Since stepping into office in January, Trump has made it clear that he believes he should win the coveted prize since he has, he claims, ended at least seven wars."
"Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York in September, Trump said, Everyone says I should get the Nobel Peace Prize. I ended seven wars. No president or prime minister has ever done anything close to that, he added. Trump noted that the wars he ended include Cambodia and Thailand; Kosovo and Serbia; the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda; Pakistan and India; Israel and Iran; Egypt and Ethiopia; and Armenia and Azerbaijan."
Donald Trump claims to have ended at least seven wars and sought credit for a possible eighth after Israel and Hamas agreed to a first-stage ceasefire tied to his 20-point peace plan. He publicly listed specific country pairs he says he reconciled, including Cambodia and Thailand; Kosovo and Serbia; the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda; Pakistan and India; Israel and Iran; Egypt and Ethiopia; and Armenia and Azerbaijan. The Nobel Peace Prize will be announced on October 10, with 338 nominees and a five-person Norwegian Nobel Committee selected by the Storting. Some ceasefire roles are disputed, while some parties credit him as a mediator.
