Again .. Trump Says He Deserves the Nobel Peace Prize and Questions His Chances of Receiving It

Al-Taj News – U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he deserves to win the Nobel Peace Prize, but acknowledged that there are doubts about his chances of winning it.

Regarding the 2026 prize, which will be announced by the Norwegian Nobel Committee on Friday, Trump said, “I don’t know what their decision will be. They have a reputation for perhaps not giving it to people like me.”

Trump has repeatedly said since returning to the White House last year that he deserves what could be described as the world’s most prestigious prize.

Trump told reporters in the Oval Office, “It is time… but I was very honored to receive it indirectly last time from the winner of it, who said that no one in history deserved it more than President Trump.”

Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado handed Trump the medal of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize in January, as part of her efforts to obtain U.S. support for her efforts in Venezuela.

Trump believes he deserves the prize after becoming involved in efforts to resolve eight conflicts since taking office.

The leaders of Cambodia, Israel, and Pakistan said they nominated Trump, but there is no way to verify that this is true.
