PRIOs Haakon Gjerløw og Marianne Dahl skriver i @DN_no om hvorfor ürets fredspris til Navi Pillay handler om mer enn forholdet mellom Norge og USA. De løfter fram betydningen av folkerett, internasjonale domstoler og uavhengige institusjoner i en tid med økende geopolitisk spenning.
đŹ ÂŤNavi Pillay har viet livet til ĂĽ bygge uavhengige institusjoner der ingen stĂĽr over loven. En verden med like regler for alle er mer rettferdig, forutsigbar og fredelig. Derfor er ĂĽrets pris en fredspris."

The Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Navi Pillay indirectly reinforces the conclusion that Israelâs actions in Gaza constitute genocide, argues PRIOâs Jørgen Jensehaugen, highlighting the importance of international law and accountability mechanisms.

PRIO Acting Director Haakon Gjerløw tells The Washington Post that the U.S. sanctions against the International Criminal Court announced on the same day Navi Pillay was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize âunderscores exactly why this award matters.â
âThe Nobel Committee has sent a clear message that international law and the institutions that defend it remain essential pillars of a peaceful world. It is a brave decision by the Committee, and a worryingly bullying reaction.â
