In this file photo dated Wednesday Dec. 9, 1998, the 1998 Nobel Peace Prize winners John Hume, right, and David Trimble, at the Grand Hotel in Oslo. The Nobel Committee praised the pair "for their efforts to find a peaceful solution to the conflict in Northern Ireland" and their roles in delivering the Good Friday accord earlier in the year. The peace has largely held since. This year's winner is set to be announced on Friday, Oct. 6, 2017. (KEYSTONE/AP Photo/Jon Eeg)
