WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump claimed Monday that he deserves a Nobel Prize for"a lot of things" but complained that the committee that hands out the awards does so unfairly.

"If you can solve this outstanding issue of Kashmir, very likely and definitely you'll be deserving a Nobel Prize," a Pakistani journalist told Trump. He also alluded to former president Barack Obama's 2009 Nobel Prize, which the Norwegian Nobel Committee said was in recognition of work on nuclear nonproliferation and creating a"new climate" in international relations.

Tensions in Kashmir have flared since Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi moved last month to strip the territory of its autonomy and send additional troops to the majority-Muslim region after attacks by separatists that India maintains are sponsored by Pakistan.
