History was written on January 3, 2026, when US special forces executed a daring operation to capture Nicolás Maduro, the long-standing dictator of Venezuela. For María Corina Machado, the country's fierce opposition leader, this moment was not just a political victory but a vindication of her faith in American intervention.
Speaking from hiding, where she has defied the regime for months, Machado declared that she would 'love' to personally hand her Nobel Peace Prize to President Donald Trump, crediting his administration with achieving what many deemed impossible.
