‘I’d Nominate Him for a Nobel Peace Prize’ [WATCH]

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she would nominate President Donald Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize if he successfully ends the war in Ukraine without ceding territory to Russia, as reported by The New York Post.

Speaking on the “Raging Moderates” podcast in an interview released Friday, Clinton said she would back such a nomination if Trump could secure a peace agreement that protected Ukraine’s borders and stood up to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“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,” Clinton told host Jessica Tarlov.

“Because my goal here is to not allow capitulation to Putin,” she added.

The comments came as President Trump traveled to Alaska for scheduled talks with Putin aimed at ending the three-year conflict. Trump has said he believes the Russian president is open to a deal, estimating a 25% chance the negotiations will fail.

Clinton’s remarks mark a stark contrast to her past statements about Trump, particularly since losing to him in the 2016 presidential election.

During that campaign, she famously referred to many of his supporters as a “basket of deplorables” and said he was “not just unprepared – he’s temperamentally unfit” to serve as president.

She also criticized him for speaking favorably about Putin. “He praises dictators like Vladimir Putin and picks fights with our friends,” she said during the campaign.

Clinton claimed Trump was “too thin-skinned” to handle nuclear codes and continued to attack him after leaving public office.

In February, she wrote an opinion piece in the New York Times calling Trump’s administration “dumb” and warning that “Mr. Trump’s America will be increasingly blind and blundering, feeble and friendless.”

Last October, she said he was “more unhinged, [and] more unstable” than when she ran against him.

The Nobel Peace Prize, awarded annually by the Norwegian Nobel Committee, is given to individuals or organizations that have made significant contributions to peace efforts.

Clinton did not indicate whether she believed Trump could realistically achieve the outcome she described but said her focus was on preventing concessions to Moscow.
