===========================================
More on summits of Nobel Peace Laureates- My understanding is that Gorbachev began anuakl invitations to a special event where all the speakers were nobel peace laureates; i was privilieged to watch one in Warsaw 2013 (sadly Gorbachev was ill but Lech Walesa's speech blew my mind and Yunus was on good form; Walesa explained how Russia still owned many value chains which eg Poland suplied parts to and his ubneasy feeling that Rissia hadnt given up on reaquiring many of the oled ussr states; For many tears the secretariat of world peace summist was the environmental Club of Rome (then in Rome now I think in Switerland).
Fall 2024, of 200+ leaders supporting Yunus redsign Bangladesh , Nobel Laureates led the way
