| Venezuelan Freedom Fighter Maria Corina Machado Dedicates Nobel Prize to Donald Trump |
| 2025-10-11 |
| [BREITBART] Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, dedicated her recognition on Friday to her Venezuelan people and to President Donald Trump, stating that Venezuelans need his support ''more than ever.'' The Norwegian Nobel Committee announced its prize recipient on Friday morning Oslo time, awarding Machado for decades of advocacy against socialism in her native Venezuela. While the left-leaning Committee did not mention socialism at all in its announcement of the award, failing to recognize who is repressing the former Venezuelan National Assembly member, it did congratulate Machado for ''her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.'' In her first statement following the announcement, Machado declared that the Venezuelan opposition — now largely cleansed of the socialist elements that undermined her leadership for decades — was ''on the threshold of victory.'' She noted that this situation was, in part, due to President Trump's longstanding support for the opposition and his actions to strip the illegitimate narco-dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro of its revenue funds and access to aid from its rogue allies, such as China and Iran. ''We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world,'' she wrote, ''as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy.'' ''I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!'' she added.
