    A senior Ukrainian lawmaker who put Donald Trump forward for a Nobel Peace Prize has withdrawn his nomination.

    Oleksandr Merezhko, the head of Ukraine's parliamentary foreign committee, told Newsweek on Tuesday that he had "lost any sort of faith and belief" in Trump and his ability to secure a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine.

    Merezhko said Trump had "virtually no reaction" to large-scale strikes on the Ukrainian capital in recent weeks, adding: "He has chosen the path of appeasement."

        Probably trying to flatter him into pressuring Russia.

          Die fuhrer is a narcissist. Could have been trying to entice die fuhrer to support Ukraine over Daddy.

            This is a good theory.

              As per the article: Oleksandr Merezhko. Without knowing more about him, he does seem genuinely far from being on Russia's payroll or part of the proto-fascist elements (beyond potentially the usual accidentally being a useful idiot like many centrist liberals end up being, sadly). Seems more like an old school centrist out of his depth, but with genuine convictions for liberalism, for what it's worth.

              My guess is that he either completely misestimated what Trump really is about - or maybe put forth the nomination to bait his narcissist side into doing more, with the prize serving as a carrot on a stick. Either way, he was quite wrong in hoping for Trump doing much to end the war.

                  It's not a bad idea, he'll do anything for himself and he'd love the kudos of this

                        The best justification for him receiving the nomination, or even winning, is simply reading the list of previous winners and nominees

                        Nonsense doublespeak prize for losers and rubes.

                              Wait... I thought Pakistan nominated him. Why nominate him as a Ukrainian when he wants you to give up parts of your invaded land. When he promised to end the war within 24h after inauguration, but did nothing but make a mess. When he's Putin's little bitch... Why are people trying so hard to make Idiocracy a reality?

                                Really? Why? Didn't he say he was dropping bombs because it's time for peace? Why would you withdraw such a noble prize to someone so peace-loving and earnest?

                                    Maybe if it was the Nobel Rape prize, or the Nobel Fraud prize, or the Nobel Fleece People For Everything They've Got Prize, you'd have a chance.

                                      I would have thought Ukraine would pull him the moment of that stupid White House incident.

                                          that he had "lost any sort of faith and belief" in Trump and his ability to secure a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine.

                                          I mean that's a great assessment, nothing to add. I'm just not sure why it took him this long.
