Nobel Peace Prize winner Machado dedicates award to Trump
- Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner, dedicated the award on October 10, 2025 to the people of Venezuela and President Donald Trump.
- The Norwegian Nobel Committee cited Machado's decades-long activism, honouring her tireless work promoting democratic rights and a peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.
- In the past year Machado has been forced to live in hiding in Venezuela and supported President Donald Trump's military pressure on Nicolás Maduro, including a major US naval deployment.
- Shortly after the announcement, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said the Nobel Committee placed `politics over peace`, and Karoline Leavitt amplified Machado's message on official X accounts.
- Venezuelan authorities say Maria Corina Machado has been monitored for calls to disregard constitutional processes, while her advocacy for sanctions comes amid over 1,000 unilateral coercive measures.
