The Norwegian Nobel Institute has responded to President Donald Trump’s extended tantrum about not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize.
Director Kristian Berg Harpviken told The Atlantic in a Sunday interview that the institute hoped to increase transparency around the selection process in an attempt to defend against accusations of bias leveled at it by Trump and his supporters.
“The strategy for clearing the air is simply to talk about it,” Harpviken said. While declining to mention Trump by name, referring to him only as the “candidate in question,” he explained the strategy as aimed at ensuring the masses understand the institute’s work.
