  "account": "Legal analyst Sabre Ahmed Jazbhay has dismissed President Donald Trump's criticism of the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize awarded to South African jurist Navi Pillay as \"sour grapes.\" Jazbhay pointed out that the US president has been overlooked for the award on multiple occasions. The decision to honor Pillay has sparked international debate over human rights and global justice. In response to her Nobel Prize, Pillay stated, \"So clearly the fact that he never got the Nobel Prize and never will is an indictment against him.\" Jazbhay noted that the international reaction has been overwhelmingly critical of the United States, with many arguing it is merely sour grapes from a president who has been overlooked twice by the Nobel Committee.",
