In the surprise announcement Friday from Oslo, the committee said it selected Obama for his "extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples." "The committee has attached special importance to Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons," a statement posted on the Nobel Foundation Web site said. As president, Obama "created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play." Because of Obama's initiatives, the United States is playing a "more constructive role" in meeting climate change challenges, the committee said. His vision of a nuclear weapons-free world has "powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations as well, the committee said "Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future," the committee said of the man who was inaugurated Jan. 20. "His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population." Three U.S. presidents and one vice president have been named peace prize laureates. In 2007, former Vice President Al Gore earned the Peace Prize for his work on climate change after he left office. Jimmy Carter earned the 2002 Peace Prize, also after he left office, for his work in advancing peace and democracy. In 1919, Woodrow Wilson earned the Peace Prize for his work to form the League of Nations. Teddy Roosevelt was the prize laureate in 1906 for negotiating an end to the war between Russia and Japan. ### Latest Headlines [![Fed nominee Kevin Warsh has millions in assets, filings show](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 7 minutes ago Fed nominee Kevin Warsh has millions in assets, filings show April 14 (UPI) -- Kevin Warsh, the nominee for the next Federal Reserve chairman, has wealth greater than any other recent chairman, his financial disclosures show.](https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/04/14/Fed-Reserve-nominee-Warsh/3281776190470/ "Fed nominee Kevin Warsh has millions in assets, filings show") [![Brian Hooker says he will continue looking for missing wife in Bahamas](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 29 minutes ago Brian Hooker says he will continue looking for missing wife in Bahamas April 14 (UPI) -- Brian Hooker, an American man released from custody this week in the Bahamas after his wife went missing, said he won't stop looking for her.](https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/04/14/bahamas-brian-hooker-search-missing-wife-lynette-hooker/7111776189056/ "Brian Hooker says he will continue looking for missing wife in Bahamas") [![Reports: U.S., Iran talks to resume after Hormuz blockade](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 1 hour ago Reports: U.S., Iran talks to resume after Hormuz blockade April 14 (UPI) -- The United States and Iran are considering another round of negotiations after talks over the weekend in Pakistan ended without a deal.](https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/04/14/iran-talks/8631776186173/ "Reports: U.S., Iran talks to resume after Hormuz blockade") [![Los Angeles schools avoid strike, make deals with unions](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 1 hour ago Los Angeles schools avoid strike, make deals with unions April 14 (UPI) -- Los Angeles schools will not close for a strike after the district reached a deal with the third and final union Monday evening.](https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/04/14/los-angeles-schools-avoid-strike/4671776185805/ "Los Angeles schools avoid strike, make deals with unions") [![Wholesale prices slowed to 0.5%; energy index jumped 8.5%](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 3 hours ago Wholesale prices slowed to 0.5%; energy index jumped 8.5% April 14 (UPI) -- The producer price index for final demand goods and services rose by about half of what was expected in March despite concerns raised by the Iran war.](https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/04/14/wholesale-prices-increase-march-2026-fuel-energy/8541776178663/ "Wholesale prices slowed to 0.5%; energy index jumped 8.5%") [![Google celebrates World Quantum Day with Doodle](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 6 hours ago Google celebrates World Quantum Day with Doodle April 14 (UPI) -- Google celebrated World Quantum Day with a new Doodle Tuesday, April 14, which is a nod to Planck's constant, an equation that starts with 4.14.](https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2026/04/14/google-doodle-world-quantum-day/7701776167640/ "Google celebrates World Quantum Day with Doodle") [![TV, film professionals oppose proposed Paramount-Warner merger](https://www.upi.com/img/clear.gif) U.S. News // 9 hours ago TV, film professionals oppose proposed Paramount-Warner merger April 14 (UPI) -- Hundreds of film and television professionals are opposing the proposed \$110 billion merger of Paramount Skydance with Warner Bros.
