Trump asked Norwegian minister about Nobel Prize, newspaper says

OSLO (Reuters) -Norwegian business Daily Dagens Naeringsliv reported on Thursday when US President Donald Trump called Norway’s Finance Minister to discuss last month.

Many countries, including Israel, Pakistan and Cambodia, have nominated Trump for peace agreements or fire fire, and said that four White House predecessors deserved the Norwegian-Big award.

“Donald Trump, when I leave Blue, walking on the street in Oslo, Donald Trump,” said Dagens Naeringsliv, referring to anonymous sources.

He continued: “Nobel Prize asked for and discussed the tariffs.”

Norway’s Ministry of Finance and Norway Nobel Committee White House, did not respond immediately to comments.

Laureates, which are nominated for hundreds of candidates every year, are elected by the Norwegian Nobel Committee appointed by the Norwegian Parliament according to the will of the Swedish 19th century industrialist Alfred Nobel.

The announcement comes in Oslo in October.

The Norwegian newspaper said Trump did not bring the NATO Military Alliance with a former Secretary General Stoltenberg for the first time.

Stoltenberg said Trump was to discuss trade tariffs and economic cooperation before his call with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Stoeere.

“I will not go to the content of the conversation further,” Stoltenberg said, when asked if there is a problem with Trump’s Nobel Prize. He said.

Stoltenberg said that many White House officials, including US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessin and US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, have entered the call.

On July 31, the White House announced a 15% tariff on imports from Norway, which is the same as the European Union.

Stoltenberg said on Wednesday that Norway and the United States are still having negotiations on tariffs.
