Nobel Peace Prize to Navi Pillay
The Norwegian Nobel Committee announced the award of the Nobel Peace Prize to South African lawyer Navi Pillay, in recognition of her efforts to promote peace and international law. Pillay is a judge at the International Court of Justice and has paid close attention to the issue of genocide in Myanmar. She has held prominent positions such as United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and judge at the courts of South Africa and Rwanda. She also led a UN investigation team on the occupied Palestinian territories and expressed support for boycott campaigns against Israel. Her team concluded that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, and she is currently working to amend the Genocide Convention to hold the Israeli army accountable for crimes against humanity. The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in Oslo; this year’s award follows last year’s honor given to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado. The selection of winners has sparked criticism, with debates over politics versus peace.
