Martti Ahtisaari

Hello my readers! Now I'm going to explain who is Martti Ahtisaari, the noble prize winner of peace in 2008.


MARTTI AHTISAARI


Martti Ahtisaari is a Russian politician and On 10 October of 2008 Ahtisaari was announced as that year's recipient of the Nobel Peace PrizeAhtisaari received the prize on 10 December 2008 at Oslo City Hall in Norway. Ahtisaari twice worked to find a solution in Kosovo – first in 1999 and again between 2005 and 2007. 

He also worked with others this year to find a peaceful solution to the problems in Iraq, the Committee said. According to the Committee, Ahtisaari and his group, Crisis Management Initiative (CMI), also contributed to resolving other conflicts in Northern IrelandCentral Asia, and the Horn of Africa.Ahtisaari invited Prime Minister Matti Vanhanen, Foreign Affairs Minister Alexander Stubb and others to his Nobel event, but not President Halonen. 

Ahtisaari's presidential campaign in Finland began when he was still a member of the council dealing with Bosnia. Finland's ongoing recession caused established political figures to lose public support, and the presidential elections were now direct, instead of being conducted through an electoral college. In 1993, Ahtisaari accepted the candidacy of the Social Democratic Party. His politically untarnished image was a major factor in the election, as was his vision of Finland as an active participant in international affairs. Ahtisaari narrowly won over his second round opponent, Elisabeth Rehn of the Swedish People's Party. During the campaign, there were rumours spread by some political opponents of Ahtisaari that he had a drinking problem or that he had knowingly accepted a double salary from the Finnish Foreign Ministry and from the United Nations while trying to negotiate an end to the Bosnian War. 

I choose this man because in my opinion is very interesting what he do and I think that is a just winner of the prize: he did important efforts, on several continents and over more than three decades, to resolve international conficts and because of that he won the noble prize of peace in 2008.

In August 2012, Martti opined on the sectarian violence in Syria and was mentioned as a possible replacement as Joint Envoy there to succeed former Secretary-General Kofi Annan. However, Ahtisaari then told the Finnish state broadcaster YLE that "he wished the mission would fall on someone else" which it ultimately did in the person of Lakhdar Brahimi, a former Algerian foreign minister and longtime U.N. diplomat.

My Mindmap

Hi readers:
In my mindmap I write about Premier league scorers, the best league of football of England, because I like very much this sport and the league in my opinion is very entertaining. Apart from that, I think that is the highest leveled league of the world because there are five or six teams that can win the league any year and that is more interesting than a league where always the same win. Finally, my favourite football player plays in the premier league, in manchester city, Kun Aguero who is in the mindmap.
