OSLO - US President Barack Obama accepted the Nobel Peace Prize Thursday at a ceremony in this Norwegian capital.
The prize was awarded to Obama in October for his “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples”.
“Compared to some of the giants of history who have received this prize… my accomplishments are slight,” Obama said in his acceptance speech at Oslo’s City Hall.
