The Oslo committee has chosen politics over peace by overlooking President Trump, communications director Steven Cheung has said
White House communications director Steven Cheung has accused the Norwegian Nobel Committee of showing political bias forfailingto award this year's Peace Prize to US President Donald Trump.
In a statement posted on X on Friday, Cheung said committee members "proved they place politics over peace."
"President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives," the official declared. "He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will."
This year's prize went to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, whom the committee commended for her "tireless advocacy of democratic freedoms in Venezuela" and efforts toward "a peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy." Machado, a former lawmaker with strong ties in Washington, has been accused by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro of channeling US funds to "fascist" anti-government groups.

Trump has repeatedly argued that his role in mediating international conflicts, including most recently in Gaza, merits recognition from the Nobel Committee. Several foreign leaders, among them Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet, and Pakistani Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar, have expressed support for him receiving the honor.
The White House has not yet issued an official statement beyond Cheung's remarks.
