“The traditional Nobel Prize ceremony at the Stockholm Philharmonic and the traditional banquet at the Town Hall will be canceled this year.

Instead, there will be a live broadcast from the town hall and an online broadcast with the laureates, during which they will be awarded diplomas and medals, ”the Nobel Committee said.

The traditional Nobel Prize ceremony is held annually in Stockholm on December 10.

The laureates receive their awards from the hands of the King of Sweden.

Earlier it was reported that US President Donald Trump was nominated for the Nobel Prize for mediating in the signing of an agreement between the authorities of Serbia and the self-proclaimed republic of Kosovo in Washington. This was announced by the special representative of the President Richard Grenell.
