SHOTLIST
1. Wide of US President Barack Obama walking to podium
2. SOUNDBITE: (English) Barack Obama, US President:
"I am both surprised and deeply humbled by the decision of the Nobel committee. Let me be clear, I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments, but rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations. To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honoured by this prize."
3. SOUNDBITE: (English) Barack Obama, US President:
"And that is why I will accept this award as a call to action, a call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st century. These challenges can't be met by any one leader, or any one nation. That's why my administration's worked to establish a new era of engagement in which all nations must take responsibility for the world we seek."
