Donald Trump Slams Obama's 'Undeserved' Nobel, Eyes 2025 Prize For Himself

Donald Trump has criticised the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Barack Obama in 2009, stating, "They gave it to Obama for doing absolutely nothing but destroying our country." This comes as Trump himself is a contender for the 2025 prize, with the announcement imminent. The list of nominees this year includes figures like Imran Khan, the late Pope Francis, Elon Musk, and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Trump has expressed doubts about his own chances despite claiming to have settled multiple wars. The Israeli Prime Minister's office has endorsed Trump, sharing an AI-generated image of him with the prize. The discussion also covers the context of the nomination process, which closed in January 2025, and how Trump's recent actions, like the Gaza peace plan, might influence future consideration. The programme includes an upcoming conversation with Caroline Glick, an advisor to the Israeli Prime Minister.
