On Friday October 9th 2009 the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to President Barack Obama "for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples." The Norwegian Nobel Committee has attached special significance to Obama's vision of and work for a world without nuclear weapons. Thus Obama becomes the fourth President of the United States to be awarded with this prestigious prize and the title Nobel Peace Laureate.

The Obama Administration has announced that the president will travel to Oslo to accept his award in December and the prize fund of $1.4 million will go to charity.
