If you make another award under these conditions, it is unlikely to be adequate to today&#8217;s situation.<\/p>\n<p> Your decision must be understandable to millions of ordinary people who, unfortunately, suffer from wars and military conflicts and do not see this peace now. Your decision must be the last reminder of the approaching catastrophe.
