2 verifications about Nobel Peace Prize Nobel Peace Prize ×
“Donald Trump has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.”
Multiple eligible nominators—including U.S. lawmakers, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, Cambodia's Prime Minister, and Pakistani officials—have publicly disclosed submitting Donald Trump's name for the Nobel Peace Prize, with confirmation from BBC, AP, Reuters and other major outlets. Although the Nobel Committee keeps its official nominee list secret for 50 years, nominators are free to announce their own submissions, making these nominations verifiable. Nomination is distinct from winning or being shortlisted.
“Volodymyr Zelensky was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for 2026.”
A University of Oslo professor publicly stated he nominated Zelensky for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize before the January 31 deadline, and he plausibly qualifies as an eligible nominator. However, the Norwegian Nobel Committee keeps all nominations confidential and has not confirmed this submission. The only sources asserting the nomination as fact are a Change.org petition and an unverified YouTube video — neither constitutes authoritative confirmation. The claim is plausible but presented as established fact without verifiable proof.
