US President Barack Obama will receive the Nobel Peace Prize as a 'war president', and his acceptance speech would figure the recent decision to send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan, the White House has said.
Asked whether the President would accept the prize as a war president, White House spokesman, Robert Gibbs replied saying "Exactly".
"He is accepting the Nobel Peace Prize as a war President."
On a question, will the President mention Afghanistan and the troop increase during his speech accepting the Nobel Peace Price? Gibbs said "Yes".
Gibbs said Obama "will address directly the notion that many have wondered which, is the juxtaposition of the timing for the Nobel Peace Prize and his commitment to add more troops into Afghanistan."
That's obviously something that he will address, the White House spokesman said yesterday.
