The Nobel Prize in Physics went to three scientists this month for their pioneering work in quantum mechanics—but US President Donald Trump claims he also deserves some of the credit.

The Nobel was awarded to John Clarke, 83, a British physicist formerly at the Department of Energy’s Berkeley Lab and now emeritus professor at UC Berkeley, along with Michel Devoret, 72, of Yale University, and John Martinis, 67, of the University of California, Santa Barbara. Their experiments from the mid-1980s paved the way for breakthroughs in quantum computing.Also read | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/-nuclear-armed-bully-iran-blasts-trump-for-ordering-resumption-of-us-nuclear-tests-1761872971706">‘Nuclear-armed bully’: Iran blasts Trump for ordering resumption of US nuclear tests</a><h2>'Pathetic' Trump slammed for hogging credit</h2>Trump's self-congratulation drew swift criticism.

<h2>Nobel laureate dismisses Trump's claim</h2>Martinis dismissed Trump’s claim with a hint of humour. In a statement to the Daily Beast, the Nobel laureate said, "This work was done in 1985, so I suppose you should credit another Republican, Ronald Reagan." Still, he acknowledged that Trump’s administration has shown interest in quantum technology: "Trump has emphasised quantum computing is a priority for his administration, and I think everyone appreciates his support of this technology".&nbsp;

Donald Trump is now looking to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, and in his recent address, Putin acknowledged his efforts and said the US president is working hard on long-standing crises and that he is genuine about it. The Russian president’s comments come after Trump failed to win the Nobel Peace Prize, which he was ambitious about winning. His allies have been a great support in nominating him for the laurel. On Thursday (Oct 9), Trump announced the end to Israel-Hamas war and spoke of his intent to end the ‘ninth war’. Speaking to the press in Tajikistan, Putin mentioned that the Nobel Committee has awarded people who have done nothing for peace and pointed out how undeserving people are declared winners.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/-peace-president-trump-gets-nobel-snub-venezuela-s-mar-a-corina-machado-wins-peace-prize-1760110562999/embed">https://www.wionews.com/videos/-peace-president-trump-gets-nobel-snub-venezuela-s-mar-a-corina-machado-wins-peace-prize-1760110562999/embed</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;Trump, in the past, has tried to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine.

He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will.

Netanyahu continues to say ‘Trump deserves it’. And a day before the announcement, he had said ‘give the Nobel Peace Prize to Trump’. Now, a day after Netanyahu said Trump deserves the award, and also when the US president failed to win, Venezuelan Maria Corina Machado stood out with her tireless work for moving her country from dictatorship to democracy. Netanyahu stuck to his words; he continues to say Trump deserves the peace prize.

&nbsp;The Nobel Committee described Machado as a ‘key, unifying figure’, as it deemed her worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize.&nbsp;Trump had received several nominations from all across the world, including Russia, Rwanda, Gabon, Azerbaijan, and Cambodia. Several leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Pakistani leader Shehbaz Sharif, had nominated the US President for the prize.&nbsp;However, the awarding committee said they have seen several instances of campaigns and media attention regarding the peace prize.&nbsp;ALSO READ: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/ceasefire-agreement-comes-into-effect-idf-troops-retreat-palestinians-start-returning-1760093917085">Ceasefire agreement comes into effect; IDF troops retreat; Palestinians start returning</a>&nbsp;“We receive thousands of letters every year of people wanting to say what for them leads to peace,” Frydnes said, adding that the committee values courage and integrity while awarding the prize.&nbsp;Trump said several times, including at the UN General Assembly, that he should be awarded Nobel prize for his contributions in ending “seven wars in seven months”. The ceasefire in Gaza came into effect on Thursday.&nbsp;“They’ll have to do what they do. Whatever they do is fine. I know this: I didn’t do it for that. I did it because I saved a lot of lives,” Trump said on Thursday.&nbsp;Last year the Nobel Peace Prize went to Japan's Nihon Hidankyo, a 69-year-old grassroots movement of survivors of the US’ bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, campaigning for the elimination of nuclear weapons.&nbsp;Trump’s desperate bid also rode on fake claims of having stopped the India-Pakistan war.&nbsp;India firmly rubbished any talk of Trump playing a role in the cessation of hostilities with Pakistan in May, stating the conflict was halted only after a direct request from that country.&nbsp;Also Trump, notably, could not end the war in Ukraine, which he declared last year he would end within days of being sworn in as president.

US President Donald Trump, who claimed to have resolved several international conflicts, had been coveting the prestigious prize and openly expressed his desire for it. His Democratic predecessor Barack Obama won the peace prize in 2009.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee on Friday awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize to Venezuela’s opposition leader and democracy activist Maria Corina Machado while overlooking US President Donald Trump, who had been clamouring for it, in a move ruffled the White House. The White House criticised the Nobel Committee and called the decision “politically motivated”. “Once again, the Nobel Committee has proved they place politics over peace,” White House Director of Communications Steven Cheung said in a post on X.

‘Nobel laureates filled with courage, integrity,’ says committee after dashing Trump’s hopes

It’s a sad day for Trump, his team, and allies as the US president did not bag the Nobel Peace Prize. The 79-year-old, who claimed to have ended the eighth war yesterday (Oct 9), was eyeing the award. It wasn’t just him alone, his allies had nominated him. The prime minister of Pakistan to the prime minister of Israel, they were all rooting for Trump.&nbsp;'Give Donald Trump the Nobel Peace Prize' said Netanyahu, even Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi tagged along. But as the official announcement came, Venezuela’s Maria Corina Machado was declared the winner for the year 2025. Her work in transitioning her country from dictatorship to democracy won her the laurel. Soon after a meme fest broke the internet, now, this is where Trump took the cake, the baker, and the bakery.&nbsp;&nbsp;An account credited the 47th US president ‘for resolving protracted conflicts between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Israel and Iran, Switzeralnd and Bhutan, Sparta and Athens, and the Achaeans and Troy’. Now, this comes after Trump’s several announcements on brokering peace.&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;On some occasions, he has also made the announcement even before the parties involved have uttered a word.&nbsp;The Trump administration has been in support of their boss and has said it time and again that he has worked tirelessly to end war and has been dedicated towards world peace. On June 22, US dropped bombs in Iran and said it ‘obliterated’ the nuclear facility. The very next day, Trump announced the ceasefire between Israel and Iran.&nbsp;&nbsp;

As Trump announced the end of war in Gaza, he said, “We ended the war in Gaza and created peace,” Trump said. He also hopes for everlasting peace in the Middle East. Lauding his nation, he said “All Americans should be proud of the role our country has played in bringing this horrible war to an end.”&nbsp;While talking about the peace deal, he mentioned the war between Israel and Hamas as the eighth war he ended and is now looking to end the one ongoing between Russia and Ukraine.

After 'ending 8 wars': Trump fails to win Nobel Peace Prize, but wins meme fest

The Norwegian Nobel committee members are all set to announce on Friday (Oct 10) the winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize. It is the first time in the award's 125-year history that the media have been allowed and several international networks shared glimpses of behind-the-scenes of the process that decides the Peace Prize winner. As the world awaits the announcement, a name that has figured along with every discussion around the Nobel Prize is US President Donald Trump. Norwegian politicians, with around an hour to go until the announcement feared for potential repercussions to US-Norway relations if Trump is not awarded the awarded.
