US President Donald Trump said he should ideally have won eight Nobel Peace Prizes for every war he has stopped – he claims to have stopped eight wars. Trump said the fact that he didn’t win any was a big embarrassment to Norway, which is where the Nobel Peace Prize committee is located.
“I did put out eight wars…it is hell of a list…I have stopped eight wars…and I think it has been a major embarrassment to Norway. Now I don’t know what Norway has to do with it but that’s where the committee is located…lot of Norwegian people…and it’s been a very big embarrassment to the country of Norway, whether they have anything to do with it or not…I think they do, they say they don’t,” he said in an interview with Fox News.
“But you know, when you put out eight wars, in theory you should get one for each war,” he added.
Trump reiterated his claim that he mediated to stop the India-Pakistan conflict last year – a claim the government has straight up rejected. The Indian government said that the conflict was resolved after a dialogue between New Delhi and Islamabad and that no third party was involved.
