Donald Trump posted on the social media platform Truth Social on Saturday to criticise the Norwegian Nobel Committee for not awarding him the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize. He cited a list of his accomplishments, stating he had settled eight wars and was close to ending two more. Trump also claimed to have secured the release of all Israeli hostages, including the final twenty-eight, and hundreds of other hostages from various countries. He also asserted he had won a war in Venezuela, captured its dictator, and stopped Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. The 2026 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to South African jurist Navi Pillay. Trump has been nominated for the prize at least five times. Previous nominations include one from former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in 2019 and from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 2025. ## Disagreement on specific claims The New York Ledger reported that Trump claimed to have won a war in Venezuela and captured its violent dictator, and stopped Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Other reports, including those from Expressen, Diario Correo, Naslovi.net, and BizToc, mentioned Trump's claims about settling wars and securing hostage releases, with Diario Correo and Naslovi.net specifically mentioning the war in Venezuela and the capture of its dictator. Fox News stated Trump cited wars settled and hostages returned, while OAN reported Trump questioned the snub despite settling multiple wars. [your]NEWS reported Trump criticised the decision, citing eight wars settled and hostages freed. ## What the coverage left out None of the right-rated digests mention the specific details about Navi Pillay's background, her role as chair of the UN's Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Palestinian Territory and Israel, or the controversy surrounding her nomination. The centre-rated report from The New York Ledger included these details, along with commentary from Anne Bayefsky and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. ## Who covered it Shares of the 9 covering outlets with a published leaning rating: - Left: 0% (0) - Centre: 11% (1) - Right: 89% (8) 3 of 12 covering outlets carried no usable leaning rating and were excluded from those percentages.

It quoted Trump directly regarding his claims of settling eight wars, securing the release of Israeli hostages, and other achievements. The report also detailed Navi Pillay's award and her background, including her work as chair of the UN's Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Palestinian Territory and Israel, and noted controversy surrounding her nomination due to claims of anti-Israel bias. It also included commentary from Anne Bayefsky and a statement from UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. ### Right - The right-rated reports generally led with President Trump criticising the Nobel Peace Prize snub and listing his accomplishments. Headlines from khbrknews, wfmd.com, nytimespost.com, and Fox News used the phrase 'President Trump blasts Nobel Peace Prize snub with blistering list of accomplishments: ‘WOW!’'. [your]NEWS used the headline 'Trump Criticizes Nobel Peace Prize Decision, Citing Eight Wars Settled and Hostages Freed', and OAN reported 'Trump questions Nobel Peace Prize snub despite settling multiple wars'. These reports focused on Trump's claims of settling wars and securing hostage releases. The digests from these outlets did not include details about Navi Pillay's background or any controversy surrounding her award, nor did they include quotes from individuals commenting on her nomination. **Provisional coverage gap:** left.
