Hitler Barred Germans From Receiving the Nobel Prize;
China Warns Oslo Against Awarding Nobel Peace Prize to Hongkongers

After the then-imprisoned journalist Carl von Ossietzky (1889-1938) was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1935, Hitler amended the law to prohibit all Germans from receiving the Nobel Prize. .

In August 2020, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi warned Norway against awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to what the CCP sees as "dissidents", "In the past, and today, in the future, China will firmly reject any attempt by anyone to use the Nobel Peace Prize to interfere in China's internal affairs".

He also said while China was the first country to report the existence of the Coronavirus, it does not mean that the virus had originated in China.

Hongkongers were nominated by Guri Melby, currently Minister of Education in Norway in October 2019 for the Nobel Peace Prize for 2020.

Norway says cyber attack on parliament carried out from China

Norway said on Monday that a March 10 cyber attack on parliament's e-mail system was carried out from China, calling on authorities there to take steps to prevent such activities.

"The cyber attack in March compromised the e-mail systems of our most important democratic institution. We will always react to these types of intrusions," Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Soereide said in a statement emailed to Reuters.

An investigation by the country’s intelligence services had revealed the attack came from "actors operating out of China", the ministry said. "Several of our allies, the EU, and Microsoft have also confirmed this."
