(ANSA-AFP) - STOCKHOLM, SEP 2 - The Nobel Foundation said
Saturday it was reversing its decision to invite ambassadors
from Russia and Belarus to this year's Nobel award ceremony in
Stockholm, after the move sparked anger. "We... choose to repeat
last year's exception to regular practice -- that is, to not
invite the ambassadors of Russia, Belarus and Iran to the Nobel
Prize award ceremony in Stockholm," the foundation said in a
statement. (ANSA-AFP).
