Congrats is in order for US President Barack Obama. The President is the 2009 recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. This is what the committee who chose him to receive the honour had to say:
“He has created a new international climate. We are awarding Obama for what he has done. Many other people and leaders and nations have to respond in a positive way.”
Chairman Thorbjorn Jagland added, “We are not awarding the prize for what may happen in the future but for what he has done in the previous year. We would hope this will enhance what he is trying to do.”
