Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize before. Experts say he’s unlikely to win this year

Trump has been nominated over 10 times and claims to have helped end multiple wars, but experts doubt his chances due to his controversial policies and brief peace efforts.

  • On Friday, Oct. 10, 2025 the Norwegian Nobel Committee will announce the Peace Prize winner in Oslo, Norway, with President Donald Trump's months-long campaign influencing the decision.
  • Supporters including Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister Hun Manet, and Pfizer's CEO Albert Bourla, who said Trump deserves the prize, lobbied Norwegian officials after nominations closed on January 31.
  • President Donald Trump brokered recent deals including Armenia-Azerbaijan and DRC-Rwanda accords, and Israel and Hamas agreed to the first phase of his 20-point peace plan with 20 living hostages to be returned.
  • Experts argue he is an unlikely winner despite recent diplomacy, with bookmakers placing Trump fourth with a 6 percent chance after the Gaza deal announcement and critics citing conflicting policies, Nina Græger said.
  • The Nobel process operates in strict confidentiality and committee members cannot permanently disqualify candidates; a viral hoax claiming permanent ban was debunked as an Associated Press fake press release dated September 25, 2025, and the final committee meeting on Monday leaves possibility of consideration next year.
