Quote:Trump told Norwegian minister he wants Nobel Prize
"Out of the blue, while Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg was walking down the street in Oslo, Donald Trump called," Dagens Naeringsliv reported, citing unnamed sources.
"He wanted the Nobel Prize - and to discuss tariffs."
In a comment to Reuters, Stoltenberg said the call was to discuss tariffs and economic cooperation ahead of Trump's call with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Stoere. "I will not go into further detail about the content of the conversation," he added.
The Norwegian newspaper said it was not the first time Trump had brought up the prize in conversation with Stoltenberg, a former secretary general of the NATO military alliance.

It’s kind of weird that he’s pressuring people NOT on the Committee to award him the Prize. Perhaps he thinks bullying by proxy will work. I have some (admittedly sparse) experience with Norwegians - they don’t give the impression of being bullyable.
