Nobel Foundation cancels Russia, Belarus, Iran invites to annual prize awards - eviltoast

The Nobel Foundation said on Saturday it would not after all invite the ambassadors of Russia, Belarus and Iran to attend the Nobel Prize awards ceremony in Stockholm this year, reversing an earlier decision after widespread criticism.

Last year, the foundation left out the ambassadors of Russia and its ally Belarus because of Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

    What did Iran do? Hot take but if Nobel is actually serious, they’ll refuse the US, UK, France, Israel etc for similar reasons.
