Hillary Clinton admits to nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize on one condition

Donald Trump's former presidential rival Hillary Clinton has said she would nominate Donald Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize if he succeeds in ending the war in Ukraine without conceding territory to Russia, as reported by the New York Times.

Clinton made the remark during the “Raging Moderates” podcast, telling interviewer Jessica Tarlov, “Honestly, if he could bring about the end to this terrible war, if he could end it without putting Ukraine in a position where it had to concede its territory to the aggressor, could really stand up to Putin, something we haven’t seen, but maybe this is the opportunity if President Trump were the architect of that, I’d nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize.”

She added, “Because my goal here is to not



allow capitulation to Putin.”

Clinton’s statement came as Trump was travelling to Alaska for landmark talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, aimed at ending the three-year conflict. Trump has said he believes Putin wants to make a deal, estimating the chance of failure at just 25 percent.

Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election. During that campaign, she called his supporters a “basket of deplorables” and described him as “not just unprepared – he’s temperamentally unfit” to be president. She also condemned his praise for Putin, years before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Her attacks then included his praise of his counterpart Putin, before the Russian leader invaded Ukraine.
