London, Dec 24 (Prensa Latina) Labor Party member Bell Ribeiro-Addy became the twelfth British Member of Parliament to officially nominate Cuba s Henry Reeve medical brigade for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize, the Cuba Solidarity Campaign (CSC) reported on Thursday.
In her nomination letter to the Norwegian committee, the legislator explained that the example set by Cuban health workers with their international contribution to the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic makes them worthy of that prize.

World Athletics President Sebastian Coe has congratulated Athletics Kenya (AK) for its extraordinary achievements and immense contribution to track and field as the Kenyan federation celebrates its 70th anniversary.
Speaking on the eve of Tuesday s AK celebrations, the decorated two-time Olympic 1,500 metres champion and multiple middle distance world record holder said Kenyan athletes shaped his running career and, over the years, made immense contribution to endurance events. I m hard-pressed - certainly in my events, endurance events - to think of a country that has contributed more to those events, Coe said in a Zoom conference call with a group of African journalists Monday.
