American President Donald Trump criticized Norway this Friday (9) for not awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to the United States. He claimed he deserved to receive 8 awards.

Trump said the award had lost credibility because of "radical ideologues." He said the decision shows that the European country is "outwitting" the Americans.

The 2026 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to South African jurist Navi Pillay, 85 years old. She was awarded a laureate for defending international justice and the rule of law.

Following Pillay's award, the United States government announced sanctions on the International Criminal Court. The jurist mocked the possibility of sharing the prize with Trump.

Trump claims that he managed to end eight conflicts around the world, a claim disputed by experts and international leaders. Since last year, he has stated that he deserves to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.

“And let's not forget, Norway, that you didn't give this award to someone who has the greatest record in history, with eight wars,” Trump said.

The president also said the decision is yet another sign that Norway and other countries are harming the United States. Despite this, the members of the committee who decide the award have no ties to the Norwegian government.

“The fact that you did not give the Nobel Peace Prize to the United States of America is just another sign of how Norway and all these others are cheating our country,” he declared.

Trump also criticized the award and said it lost credibility because of people he classified as “radical ideologues” opposed to democracy and “enemies of civilization”.

Winner

The 2026 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to 85-year-old South African jurist Navanethem "Navi" Pillay. Pillay was awarded the prize for defending international justice and the rule of law.

Throughout her career, the jurist judged the genocide in Rwanda, headed the UN human rights area and chaired the committee hired by the UN that determined that Israel committed genocide in Gaza.

The chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Jørgen Watne Frydnes, said that the award to the South African jurist is "a message to those who are attacking and weakening the international system".

The speech was read as a dig at Trump, who attacked multilateral and international institutions, such as the International Criminal Court (ICC) — which Pillay was part of in the 2000s.

The Trump administration even announced new sanctions against the ICC hours after Pillay was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

After learning that he won the Nobel Peace Prize, Pillay joked, ironically, about sharing the Nobel Peace Prize with Trump. She also said she was surprised by the award.
