In January 2026, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store criticized former US President Donald Trump after Trump texted about the Nobel Peace Prize and Greenland. Trump's message stated that because Norway "decided not to" award him the prize, he felt less obligated to focus on peace and reiterated his desire for US control of Greenland. Store responded by clarifying that the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded by an independent committee, separate from the Norwegian government. The exchange highlights a continued interest by Trump in acquiring Greenland and his perception of the Nobel Peace Prize's influence on his foreign policy decisions.
