Donald Trump and the Nobel Peace Prize
The Nobel Peace Prize has been criticized for being a tool for the wealthy to whitewash their involvement in violence.
US President Donald Trump announced a peace deal between Israel and Hamas, which could potentially lead to an end to two years of violence.
Trump has repeatedly declared that he “deserves the prize”, claiming he has “ended seven wars” since taking office in 2017.
He stated, “No president or prime minister has ever done anything close to that,” and believes he should receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his achievements.
The announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize is set to take place on Friday, which may determine if Trump's efforts will be recognized.
