In the aftermath of Maria Corina Machado’s decision to give her Nobel Prize to Donald Trump, the Nobel Committee issued a resolute statement stating that its medals “cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others.”
In the Oval Office, the President of Venezuela smiled broadly for the camera while holding the trophy and standing next to Machado, the head of Venezuela’s opposition party. The shot was taken inside the Oval Office. In an interview with reporters on Capitol Hill on Thursday afternoon, Machado said she had presented Trump with the award she had received the previous year for her dedication to transforming Venezuela into a democratic nation.
