Labour’s MEP for Dublin Aodhán Ó Ríordáin said that Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, is the perfect recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Members of Parliament, international judges and former winners can nominate candidates.

Ó Ríordáin said:

“Francesca P. Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, a lawyer and human rights advocate, is the foremost voice exposing the horrors inflicted upon the Palestinian people, who have endured terror and dehumanization of unimaginable proportions in Gaza and the West Bank for the past year and a half. It is an honour to add my name to the calls for her to receive the Nobel Peace Prize."
