Donald Trump Nominated For Nobel Peace Prize Again, Following Israel-UAE Peace Deal
President Donald Trump’s thoughtfully good efforts are bearing sweet fruits. For his instrumental role towards resolving worldwide conflicts, Trump has received the nomination for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize.
It comes after, Israel and the United Arab Emirates signed the “historic peace agreement” with the help of Trump as the facilitator. President Trump himself announced the peace deal between the two nations last week expressing his happiness and excitement for the nations to join hands.
Trump’s nomination for the Peace Prize was given by Christian Tybring-Gjedde who is a right-wing member of the Norwegian Parliament. Tybring-Gjedde, who is a four-term member of Parliament, also serves as chairman of the Norwegian delegation to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly.
In conversation with Fox News, Tybring-Gjedde said that Trump has done a lot to create global peace between nations, much more than any other Peace Prize nominees. He added on to say that he is not a big Trump supporter but the community and people must not judge him on the way he behaves - instead, they should try to understand him on the basis of facts and all that he has done for the society.
According to Tybring-Gjedde, the Nobel Peace Prize winners in recent years have not done a lot to achieve the feat. In contrast, Trump has certainly made some impactful positive changes, unlike former U.S. President Barack Obama who “did nothing.”
In case, the President wins the Prize, he will be in one line with Barack Obama’s Peace Prize win back in 2009 for his tremendous efforts to support “international diplomacy and cooperation between people". However, Trump has long been critical of Obama winning the Peace Prize.
In September, speaking about Obama’s Peace Prize win, Trump told reporters that Obama had no iota of an idea as to why he got a Prize and that happens to be the only thing that he agrees with him on.
Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize right after his ascent to the presidency in 2008.
This is the second time that Trump has received the nomination for the Prize. The first time, he was formally nominated by Tybring-Gjedde in 2018 for his high-yielding efforts to solve the nuclear tensions in North Korea.
Trump’s good works are paying off. But the big question is: is it enough to outshine his negativities? Tons of allegations have been made against him including the disrespect of dead troops.
Next, what everybody wants to know is how Trump’s going to react to this big happy news. As per his previous track record, it will happen sooner than we expect.
