Russia's embassy in South Africa criticized what turned out to be a satirical story about White House national security adviser John Bolton being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Bolton was, in fact, nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize — two administrations ago. Late Swedish parliamentarian and former Deputy Prime Minister Per Ahlmark nominated Bolton for the 2006 prize for his push to disarm nuclear-capable or prospective U.S. adversaries as former President George W. Bush's undersecretary of state for arms control and international security affairs.
The position would be his last for over a decade until a sudden White House shuffle saw him appointed as Trump's national security adviser last April.
