Good catch! I didn't mention that in my update, but yes - in December 2025, Julian Assange filed a legal complaint against the Nobel Foundation. He's challenging their decision to award the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize to Maria Corina Machado (Venezuelan opposition leader).
Assange's complaint accuses the Nobel Foundation of:
- Misappropriating funds
- Facilitating war crimes and crimes against humanity
- Financing crimes of aggression
He also accused them of encouraging Trump administration interference in Venezuela via the prize decision.
The Nobel Foundation rejected the complaint, citing their statutes that make prize decisions final and permanent. Machado has since suggested she might transfer the prize money to Trump, which the Nobel body also shot down.
