The recent news update reports that former US President Donald Trump is once again overlooked for a Peace Prize. The news has sparked widespread discussions and debates both domestically and internationally. Although the specific reasons for this omission remain undisclosed, it's evident that Trump's controversial presidency and political decisions have played a significant role in this decision.

In Japan, where respect for the establishment and harmony is highly valued, such news is a talking point among political buffs. Due to its pacifist constitution post-WWII, Japan often looks upon the international Peace Prize with deep respect. An ex-US President being passed over - especially one with a contentious international reputation like Trump's - could be seen as a reflection of global influences on the prize selection.

In contrast, in the US and EU, the Peace Prize selections are followed, but the importance does not outweigh domestic issues. The news of Trump being overlooked again can evoke mixed reactions given his divisive presidency, with some applauding the decision and others criticizing it for being politically motivated.
