  1. Maria Corina Machado has been awarded the 2025 [Nobel Peace Prize](https://inews.co.uk/topic/nobel-prize?ico=in-line_link), clinching the accolade ahead of hundreds of nominees including US President [Donald Trump](https://inews.co.uk/topic/donald-trump?ico=in-line_link).

    The five-strong Norwegian Nobel Committee announced this year’s recipient of the prestigious honour on Friday, with Machado emerging at the top of a field of 338 nominees.

    She beat 338 other candidates – 244 individuals and 94 organisations – who had been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize this year.

    Trump, who was seeking to become the fourth American president to win the Nobel Peace Prize, has been [increasingly vocal](https://inews.co.uk/news/world/how-trump-could-win-nobel-peace-prize-3962654?ico=in-line_link) during his second term about his desire for recognition over [brokering an Israel-Gaza peace deal](https://inews.co.uk/news/trump-gaza-peace-plan-work-netanyahu-must-go-3965307?ico=in-line_link) and efforts to secure an end to the [Russia-Ukraine war](https://inews.co.uk/topic/russia-ukraine-war?ico=in-line_link).

    During a meeting with Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, in February, Trump said: “They will never give me a Nobel Peace Prize. I deserve it, but they will never give it to me.”

    He has suggested on several times that he has been instrumental in stopping multiple wars.

    “In a period of just seven months, I have ended seven ‘un-endable’ wars,” he claimed during his address to the United Nations General Assembly last month. “No president or prime minister — and for that matter, no other country — has ever done anything close to that.”

    Trump was nominated for the prize by several politicians, including Benjamin Netanyahu and Cambodia’s Prime Minister Hun Manet.

    Netanyahu nominated Trump in July after Trump claimed credit for stopping the war with Iran in June.

    Ending the war in Ukraine was his core campaign promise, and he has failed spectacularly (unfortunately). Hence, I don’t see why anyone actually expected him to win.

  3. Can’t wait for his tantrum.

    Maybe between all his crying, he will find time to release the Epstein files!

  4. The Prize (deservedly) going to a Latina is going to piss him off bigly.

    Hegseth will be getting orders to blow up more Venezuelan boats 😠

  5. Even getting trolled by the Nobel committee in them giving it to someone who is the polar opposite of Trump! Female, Venezuelan, working for Democracy instead of against.

    Bravo! I stand and applaud the Nobel Committee on their most excellent choice!

  6. It isn’t just that he lost the Nobel Peace Prize that’s going to piss him off.

    It’s that he lost the Nobel Peace Prize to a woman.

    Only himself to blame. He should have said that he ended seventy wars not just seven. Low energy.

  8. I think if you want to win the Nobel Peace Prize, you should try and bring peace in your own country first lol.

    The fact that they awarded it to a person who has worked with peaceful opposition in Venezuela while Trump has been making threats of invasion and bombing boats of said country is such a sweet fuck you to Trumps empty image of “peace maker”.

  10. If I had to guess, it was his commitment to war that prevented him from winning a peace prize. His main job, at least as he understand it, is to sow division in the USA

  11. lol a peace prize? To the orange clown who promotes violence in his own country with his ICE personal army.

  12. EmployAltruistic647 on

    He’s gonna accuse Venezuela of stealing his prize and start doing land operations and sink more “drug boats”

  13. dazed_and_bamboozled on

    I can’t believe they didn’t give it to the pedophile, rapist and multiple convicted felon, Donald “Complete obliteration!” Trump.

  14. If the committee had awarded Trump with the Nobel, it would be a stain forever. The prestige would be ruined and no one in the future could respect this Nobel Peace Prize. And we shouldn’t butter up Trump with anything he wants like we shouldn’t have done it for example with Hitler just with the wishful thinking of stopping his madness.

  15. Thank goodness. At least there is one thing out there that hasn’t been tainted, ruined or defaced by this asshole and his family.

    How could anyone think he should be awarded a Nobel prize. It’s not a losers medal.

  17. So what? Now you have to actually do something to get a Nobel Peace Prize? What is this, Communist China?
