Trump Slams Nobel Peace Prize Decision as 'Disgrace,' Claims He Deserved Eight Awards

Trump Slams Nobel Peace Prize Decision as 'Disgrace,' Claims He Deserved Eight Awards

U.S. President Donald Trump called the Nobel Peace Prize award to South African lawyer Navi Pillay a "disgrace," claiming he deserved eight such prizes for his conflict resolution efforts. Pillay, a former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, was honored for promoting peace and international law, but also led a UN commission that accused Israel of genocide in Gaza. Israel rejected these findings, and the Israeli Prime Minister's office criticized the committee's decision. Trump accused the committee of bias, stating the prize was now "discredited."
