Does the US President really have a chance of the Nobel Peace Prize? Danger in the flash of earth. And: what is hidden behind the term “mother’s”. The situation in the morning.
Good morning, dear readers,
They are successful days for the United States – at least in terms of winners. The Nobel Prize for Medicine went to two researchers from the USA, the Nobel Prize for Physics. The congratulations from the White House failed to materialize, the government of Donald Trump has not yet appeared as a friend of science. For the US President, only the award on Friday counts: the Nobel Peace Prize. But can he really win him?
The US President makes no secret that Trump wants to have the award. Trump recently said that it was a “insult” if he didn’t get the price. In his speech to the United Nations, the US President also promoted seven wars since the beginning of his term. “Everyone says that I should get the Nobel Peace Prize for each of these achievements“, Trump praised himself on the world stage. That it is by no means everywhere, let alone the United States had a decisive share in the peace process, the US President once more suggested (you can read more about this here).
Why Trump could (not) win the Nobel Peace Prize
It is not excluded that Trump could win the price. He can see the agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan over Bergkarabach as a success. And if there is really a persistent peace situation in the Gaza Strip, Trump recognition would be certain – but so far it has not been in sight. In his will, Alfred Nobel once stated that the price should go to the person, “which was the most or best for the fraternity between the nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the maintenance and promotion of peace congresses”.
The opposite stands by a US president who gradually abolish democracy in his own country, uses soldiers against his own population-speaks of a “war inside”-and in the war against drug cartels in the war off ships off the coast of Ecuador. To make matters worse, for Trump, he denies climate change and abolish environmental regulations in the United States. In the 21st century, the Nobel Committee also “had efforts to limit the damage caused by humans caused by humans and environmental threats as relevant to the peace price,” says the.
Now it is not the case that “everyone” says that Trump deserves the price – quite the contrary. In a survey published in mid -September, 76 percent of the Americans surveyed said that Trump should not get the price. Amazing: The US President also has little support in his own party. Every second Republican voter referred to the price.
For experts, Trump is also not a favorite. So far, Trump has not been able to properly solve a conflict, complains of peace researchers Karim Haggag. A Nobel Prize is therefore difficult to justify. Instead, Haggag campaigned for individuals or groups who conveyed in “forgotten” conflicts, such as Sudan. With many millions of refugees and starving, the civil war there is currently the largest humanitarian crisis in the world. The Emergency Response Rooms volunteering network there is a favorite group for the Oslo Peace Research Institute Prio.
Donald Trump seems to have guessed that he only has outsiders. As a fair loser, he said in advance: “You will give the price of some guy who did nothing damn.” The self -proclaimed president does not seem to come to mind that he could take a statement from the jury directly.
Sarah Kuttner and the “Fucking Ferrari”
It has become quieter around Sarah Kuttner in recent years. Why, explains the former music presenter in star-InterView: “I am none that can be put down in ‘Tempation Island’. I am a niche type. There are hardly any places for all my crazy ideas.” She does not regret that the moderation jobs have become less: “I was never really happy with the role of the celebrities”.
Today Kuttner is her own director, is looking for contact with her fans on YouTube and Instagram, writes books. In the interview, she talks about her latest work, the difficult relationship with her mother and why she sometimes feels like a “fucking ferrari”.
Danger in approach
Fortunately, even if the view of the sky is not blocked: more and more man -made objects are accumulating in the orbit. Space scrap makes it more and more difficult to avoid collisions, which would then cause even more pollution of the orbits.
Researchers have now found out which 50 objects are the greatest probability of a collision. The scrap parts move around the earth at a speed of eight kilometers per second. So someone cleans up in space? According to the researchers, the probability of accident would already reduce 30 percent to remove the most dangerous ten objects. Read here what parts of the parts and where they come from.
