President Barack Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize today, December 10, 2009, Thursday, not long after he has ordered 30,000 troops to Afghanistan and set a date for American troops to leave Iraq. The President does acknowledge that he cannot follow in the great footsteps of peace bringers of the past Nobel Peace Prize winners, but that he does want security and peace for the world.
Obama Nobel Peace Prize for What? Is a question on many people mind who don’t think he deserves this prize, yet.
Obama seems to think the same stating:
“To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who’ve been honored.”
What do you think? Does Obama deserve this award or is it too soon? Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to bring World Peace.
President Barack Obama won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.”
The committee stated it admired the fact that Obama was trying to make a world without nuclear weapons and his outreach to the Muslim world.
Many where shocked at the fact that Obama won a Nobel Peace Prize since he only recently became President of the United States of America. What do you think? Does Obama deserve this award?
