Trump Shamelessly Claims he Deserved Nobel Peace Prize and not African Leader
Amid a political campaign in Toledo, Ohio, President Donald J. Trump has bitterly and openly complained about the choice of the 2019 Nobel Peace Prize, Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (PhD).
Instead, he offered himself as one who should have won, claiming to have "saved Ethiopia" and helping stop a potential war. He also called the drone strike that killed Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, "American justice", directly contradicting the ideals of the world's most prestigious peace honor.
"I made a deal. I saved a country, and I just heard that the head of that country is now getting the Nobel Peace Prize for saving the country. I said, what, did I have something to do with it? Yeah, but you know, that is the way it is. As long as we know, that is all that matters."
The Reporter reached out to the Office of the Prime Minister in Addis, but they declined to comment. However, the American Embassy in Addis Ababa sent The Reporter a link to previous statements from the embassy as well as the one rendered by Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, last year, alluding to the fact that there is no change in position as far as the foreign office is concerned.
