The Olympic movement deserves to win the Nobel Peace Prize, former award winner Muhammad Yunus said Monday. Yunus, a Bangladeshi banker who was awarded his Nobel in 2006 for pioneering micro-credit loans to impoverished people, has worked with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) on a business program for athletes. “I think it has a very good case to establish itself as a candidate,” Yunus said in an online conference call ahead of receiving an Olympic award at the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Games on Friday.More Related News
