Klaus Schwab, Chairman of the World Economic Forum, rewarded the Israeli President Shimon Peres with the 'Spirit of Davos' award in Switzerland on Friday, al-Alam reported.
Schwab further noted that this is the first time the World Economic Forum presents an award to anyone.
Peres, who leads a regime known for its horrible record of persisting human rights violations against Palestinians and other nations in the Middle East, claimed that he will ring the bell for “peace in the region.”
Meanwhile, the United Nations and other international organizations have repeatedly charged the Israeli regime with barefaced human rights abuses in occupied Palestinian territories.
The Tel Aviv regime further continues its construction of new settlements in West Bank and East al-Quds, defying a long-running demand by the international community to halt the illegal infringement.
In recent months, meanwhile, hundreds of American and British academics and thousands of human rights activists have called for imposing sanctions on the Israeli regime for its persisting atrocities against Palestinians.
