Trump je evropsko državo označil za "jebeno deželo".

United States President Donald Trump denounced Norway as a "piece of shit country" during a campaign rally in Port Huron, Michigan, on Sunday night, expressing intense anger over his exclusion from the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize. Speaking at the McMorran Place Arena ahead of the midterm elections scheduled for November 3, the president stated he wanted no contact whatsoever with the Nordic nation because its committee had bypassed him for the prestigious award. Trump linked his rejection of Norwegian immigrants directly to the prize decision. While discussing immigration policy, he expressed willingness to accept citizens from Denmark, which he described as a good, beautiful, and pleasant country. However, he explicitly rejected applicants from Norway, stating, "I don’t want anyone from Norway. I don’t want anything to do with Norway." He added that he was not pleased with the country and used profanity to characterize it, a term he has previously applied to nations such as Haiti, Libya, Somalia, and Yemen. There were no immediate indications of an official change in United States immigration policy regarding Norwegian nationals following these remarks. The controversy centers on the Norwegian Nobel Committee’s decision to award the 2026 peace prize to South African jurist Navanethem Pillay, also known as Navi Pillay, for her efforts in promoting peace and international law. Trump, who claimed credit for ending at least eight conflicts during his second term, argued that he deserved multiple awards for his diplomatic achievements. He specifically cited mediations between Azerbaijan and Armenia, and between India and Pakistan, asserting that his interventions saved at least 30 million lives. He also attributed the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas, and the halt to Iran's nuclear program to his administration's actions. In a post on Truth Social published after the announcement of Pillay as the laureate, Trump criticized the selection process. He described Pillay as a woman whom nobody had ever heard of, noting that she worked at the United Nations and allegedly harbored animosity toward Israel. He characterized the decision as an "indelible stain on Norway that will never be forgotten" and declared the Nobel Peace Prize discredited by a group of radical ideologues who are anti-democratic and enemies of civilization. He further contrasted his situation with that of former President Barack Obama, who received the award shortly after taking office in 2009, questioning why Obama won while he did not. Trump’s frustration with the Nobel Committee is not new. In January, he sent a letter to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre expressing dissatisfaction with the previous year’s decision. That award went to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado. In the letter, Trump wrote that since Norway decided not to give him the prize despite his claim of stopping eight wars, he no longer felt obligated to think exclusively about peace. This statement was interpreted as linking potential threats to take Greenland by force with his grievance over the missing honor. He added that while peace would always remain a priority, he could now focus on what was best and right for the United States. During the rally, Trump recounted a meeting with Machado in the White House earlier this year, which took place weeks after a U.S. operation aimed at capturing Maduro. According to Trump, Machado told him she could not believe she had won the prize and insisted that it should have belonged to him. She reportedly handed him her Nobel Peace Prize medal, a gesture Trump described as very nice and one he would not forget. He called it a beautiful gesture of mutual respect. However, the Norwegian Nobel Committee clarified that the prize cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to another person. Once the winner is announced, the decision remains permanent. Despite this clarification, Trump continued to cite the exchange as evidence of his merit. He also mentioned that First Lady Melania Trump had told him a week before the announcement that it would be a great honor for him to win the prize. The Norwegian government has repeatedly emphasized that the Nobel Committee operates independently and that the state plays no role in deciding the recipients of the award. Neither the Norwegian Foreign Ministry nor the Nobel Committee issued an immediate response to Trump’s latest insults on Sunday. The president’s comments came amid broader discussions on migration, where he favored Danish applicants over those from Somalia and Norway, citing his personal grievances against the latter two countries. The political fallout from his remarks highlights the ongoing tension between the U.S. executive branch and international institutions regarding recognition of American foreign policy successes.
