Trump Should Win Nobel Peace Prize, Says South Korean President

Donald Trump should win the Nobel Peace Prize for helping to broker peace between North and South Korea, South Korean President Moon Jae-in said Monday. Relations between North and South have taken remarkable steps over the past two months, culminating in a historic summit between the country’s two leaders at the border last week. “President Trump should win the Nobel Peace Prize. What we need is only peace,” Moon told a cabinet meeting, according to an official who briefed media. Moon previously said Trump “deserves big credit for bringing about the inter-Korean talks. It could be a resulting work of the U.S.-led sanctions and pressure.” The two Koreas have agreed to bring an official end to six decades of hostility since the end of the Korean War, and Kim Jong Un pledged to work toward the “complete denuclearization” of the Korean Peninsula. Trump will hold his own summit with Kim in late May or early June.
