Lise Klaveness, president of the Norwegian soccer federation, has called upon FIFA to abolish its Peace Prize, which was awarded in its inaugural edition to U.S. President Donald Trump in December, on the grounds that it had “no legitimacy.”
FIFA president Gianni Infantino has also come under fire for creating this award, which Klaveness and FairSquare, the non-profit human rights organization, claim is a breach of FIFA’s statutes.
