US President Donald Trump had claimed to have ended seven wars and garnered support from notable figures like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize 2025 has brought disappointment to US President Donald Trump, who had been vocal about his chances of winning the prestigious award.
Trump had claimed to have ended seven wars and garnered support from notable figures like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
However, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the prize to Maria Corina Machado, a Venezuelan politician and democracy activist.
Trump's bid for the Nobel Peace Prize was marked by controversy, with many questioning the legitimacy of his claims. Despite the skepticism, Trump remained confident, even suggesting that the Nobel Committee might find a reason to deny him the award.
Machado's dedication to promoting democratic rights and her tireless work in the face of adversity make her a worthy recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Her commitment to advancing fellowship among nations aligns with the values of the award, which is given to individuals or organizations who have done the most to promote peace and cooperation.
The Nobel Peace Prize is one of the most esteemed awards in the world, recognizing outstanding contributions to peace and conflict resolution. The Norwegian Nobel Committee's decision to award the prize to Machado sends a strong message about the importance of democracy, human rights, and peaceful activism.
