The chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee addressed Donald Trump‘s desperate attempts to get the Peace Prize after awarding the honor to a democracy activist on Friday.
Jørgen Watne Frydnes defended the committee’s choice to give the 2025 prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado over Trump, who had pushed for the award for himself.
“During the past months, U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly said he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize and he’d like to have it. He even said it would be an insult to the United States if he doesn’t get it,” a reporter said to Frydnes at the announcement ceremony in Oslo.
