There is a record number (it comes up to 259) of candidates for the Nobel Prize this year. No list of official nominees exists, however it is known that one of them is Bill Clinton, the ex-prezident of the USA. The prize will be awarded in October.
Last year's "winner" was the EU which was criticized. Barack Obama, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2009, also wasn't accepted easily. We will see whether the prize will go to the USA this year as well... Personally, my favourite is Malalaj Júsuvzáí, a Pakistani girl. She tries to change the situation of girls in her country.
By the way, the article is about Nobel PEACE Prize :-) I forgot to add it, but I think it's quite clear even like that.
ReplyDeleteI also think it would be great if the Pakistani girl won. Could you please add a link for the article?

ReplyDeleteIf the Pakistani girl won, that would be great. Her cause definitely deserves recognition and more support.
