The Norwegian Nobel committee announced yesterday that Finland's ex-president Martti Ahtisaari has won the Nobel peace prize.
Martti Ahtisaari is the father of Marko Ahtisaari, the former director of design strategy at Nokia and now director of brand and design at the advertising-supported phone company Blyk.
He was awarded the prize for his important efforts, on several continents and over more than three decades, to resolve international conflicts.
Congratulations to the Ahtisaari family.
The photo, which comes from The Guardian website, shows Martti Ahtisaari with his wife, Eeva, his father, Oiva, and his son, Marko, in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, on August 2 1973. Ahtisaari was then the Finnish ambassador in Tanzania.
