Very hypocrite. By Trump's plan DPRK should be occupied. His vector of efforts was totally opposite to the peace on the peninsula. On the other side, it's what Nobel Peace is all about.

Trump is the greatest diplomat that has ever existed.

Obama/Corbyn fans are not pleased

I'm watching Back to the Future 2 and feel like we live in the wrong future. Or present.

:lol:
For what???

For sending stupid tweets about starting a war?

Trump's done fuck all to facilitate peace between S. Korea and N. Korea and even went so far as to tell S. Korea not to meet with N. Korea.

Might as well give him one, they pretty much give it to anyone. When they awarded it to Henry Kissinger it lost all meaning. But I don't think Trump's saber rattling belligerence merits that sort of recognition. Peace is being achieved in spite of Trump, not because of him.

There has been no war for 60 years. Acknowledging it now is hardly a great accomplishment.

[Godstud]

It never ENDED. There was no formal end to the war. Sheesh, get educated.

It ended. They just refused to formalize it. Taking 60 years to accept an accomplished fact is not praiseworthy.

[Stormsmith]

I'm inclined to agreed with @One Degree , but the devil's in the details. Let's see the treaty.

As to the Nobel Prize, the Europeans won't vote for Trump

[Heisenberg]

The Nobel Peace Prize is already a completely ridiculous institution, having already been won by Henry Kissinger for ending a war he didn't end, Elihu Root for annexing the Philippines, and Barack Obama for saying "hope" and "change" a lot. Giving it to Trump would hardly make its reputation sink any lower.

[Beren]

Anyone wins the Nobel Peace Prize, Trump will claim it for himself, in a tweet storm.

Scandinavians especially.

He could win a peace prize for bragging about nuking someone. Nice!

Moon may get the Nobel Prize it seems.

[Zamuel]

Moon may get the Nobel Prize it seems.

That would be a fair award, he grasped the initiative. If Kim meets him halfway and they produce results, I think a joint award is possible. It would be a meaningful and courageous leap for N Korea.

Trump's firing of Tillerson sort of removes the US from contention I think. The former secretary may well have been a vital component in the creation of Moon's proposal, but his absence leaves Moon and Kim standing alone.

I think a joint award is possible.

No, it's not. Moon will be awarded as mediator and dealmaker while Trump and Kim will be considered warmongers threatening each other with nukes.

[Zamuel]

No, it's not. Moon will be awarded as mediator and dealmaker while Trump and Kim will be considered warmongers threatening each other with nukes.

Certainly possible ... But considering the attitudes of the Nobel committee, if Kim renounces nukes, a joint award might be inevitable.

Kim Jong-un won't be awarded, neither will Trump.

It’s true. Trump could follow up with peace throughout the Middle East and still not even get nominated.

Well, that's not exactly what he's doing.
