U.S. President Donald Trump has once again lamented that he won’t receive the Nobel Peace Prize “no matter what” he does. In a lengthy Truth Social post, Trump cited his claimed role in brokering several peace deals — including the India-Pakistan ceasefire, Serbia-Kosovo talks, and the Abraham Accords — asserting that his efforts deserve global recognition.
He also referenced a recent agreement between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, stating six times in the same post that he should have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump emphasized that he doesn’t expect recognition, but “the people know,” he added.
This latest rant comes as Trump considers a military strike on Iran, giving the country a two-week deadline to avoid conflict. The Pakistan government recently announced its intention to nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, crediting his “decisive diplomatic intervention” in defusing tensions with India. However, India strongly rejected these claims, asserting the ceasefire resulted from direct military negotiations without U.S. mediation.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi reportedly told Trump during a phone call that there was no U.S. role in the ceasefire. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri reiterated this, stating it was an “India-led” agreement.
Trump has long expressed resentment over not winning the Nobel Prize, even mocking former President Barack Obama’s 2009 win, calling it undeserved. Despite several past nominations, including recent support from a U.S.-based Israeli professor, Trump has never been awarded the prize.
