> All of this was because of an activist being awarded a Nobel Peace Prize, which is process controlled a foundation, not directly by the Norwegian government. The nobel committee is set by the norwegian parliament. "The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded by a committee of five, appointed by the Storting (the Norwegian parliament)." https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/prize_awarder/committee.html https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/prize_awarder/... And the nobel prizes ( particularly in peace ) has been used by the norwegian government to advance political causes. A prime example being obama being awarded the nobel peace prize before he did anything as president. Regardless of your views on china, the nobel peace prize is a political prize.
