至于欧巴马，诺贝尔和平奖评委会的发言人说给他授奖是因为： "The committee has attached special importance to Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons. . .Obama has as president 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. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts . . .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.”
