US President Donald Trump told an election campaign rally in North Carolina that he could win the Nobel Peace Prize for “stopping mass killings” between Serbia and Kosovo. Trump was nominated for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize by a Norwegian lawmaker for helping as a mediator for a peace agreement between Israel and United Arab Emirates, which followed a similar deal between Israel and Bahrain.
Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a member of the Norwegian Parliament, nominated Trump after he successfully brokered the deal for the normalisation of ties between the two Middle East nations. Public figures, including national politicians, professors and former prize winners are eligible to nominate someone for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) fought against Serbian forces which led to thousands of deaths in a decade-long bloody conflict and unilaterally proclaimed independence in 2008. Earlier this month, the White House hosted talks between Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Kosovo Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti but no major breakthrough was achieved through it, in contrast with the US President’s claims.
Trump’s nomination also comes just ahead of US Presidential polls and crushing coronavirus crisis that has USA topping the list of worst-hit countries.
