__Nobel Peace Prize Winner__ __Alfonso Garcia Robles__

The Nobel Peace Prize is a prize that is given to a person. That person has to have done the best work for the world and the people around him. That includes doing fraternity work between the nations and the reduction of standing armies, also, the peace of congresses. The Nobel Peace Prize was created by Alfred Nobel. He left the Nobel Peace Prize as a request on his will after his death. He died on December 10, 1896 but it was dated on November 27, 1895. So, the Nobel Peace Prize was created on November 27, 1895 and it has been existing since then. As on the will of Alfred Nobel the Nobel Peace Prize was to be given to who"shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding of peace congresses." As he left on his will(' The Nobel Peace Prize 1901-2000."). For my project I decided to research Alfonso Garcia Robles. Alfonso was born on March 20, 1911, in Zamora,Mexico. In 1982, at the age of 71 he won the Nobel Peace Prize. After nine years he died on September 2, 1991.Alfonso won the Nobel Peace Prize for his pioneering work in negotiating the Treaty of Tlatelolco also known as the Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons in Latin America and the Caribbean("Alfonso Garcia Robles- Biography."). This treaty created the world’s first nuclear-weapon-free zone in a population area. Ever since this agreement was created it has served as a model for the nuclear-weapon-free zone in other regions. Alfonso Garcia Robles played a crucial role in the launching of this treaty. He not only played an important role in the treaty but also in UNO’s work to promote general disbarment. Alfonso represented the Country in Geneva during negotiations("united Nations Secretary- General Ban Ki-moon's Statement's."). Alfonso had motivations for all he did but his big inspiration was to help not only his country and his people but to also help many others that surrounded him. I think Alfonso should be an inspiration but I also think he should be a motivation. Because everyone should understand that when we do something, we want it not to only help our country and ourselves, but, also everyone else. That’s why I think he is an inspiration and should be a motivation because he not only cared for himself, but, others too.
