Did Trump stand a chance at winning the Nobel Peace Prize?
In an interview for Al Mayadeen, Norwegian historian and former Nobel Institute advisor Øyvind Tønnesson said it is "highly unlikely that [US President Donald] Trump could ever receive the Nobel Peace Prize," citing his record and worldview as fundamentally opposed to the award’s founding ideals. "The Nobel Committee has favored work for international institution building, humanitarian principles, and human rights and those principles are actually almost entirely principles that are that Donald Trump, if not hates, he is really strongly against them,” Tønnesson explained. Addressing the recent award to Venezuelan opposition figure María Corina Machado, Tønnesson described it as "a kind of slap in Trump’s face," saying the committee’s statement embodied "principles that Donald Trump is against."
