Nobel Peace Prize 2025: Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado wins
www.bbc.co.uk
Nominations closed in January but US President Donald Trump had led a public campaign to win the award.

In a post on X, the committee says it has awarded Maria Corina Machado the Nobel Peace Prize “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”.

I expect Donald Trump will write an angry social media post about this, claiming that he should have won.

    Yeah I found that tweet here. Here’s an image for people who don’t want to visit that link to X:

    A tweet from the White House Director of Communications, Steven Cheung. He is responding to a tweet naming the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner, Maria Corina Machado. Cheung writes: "President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives. He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will. The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace."
