US President Donald Trump is preparing to meet Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado and to accept her 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.
Trump, who has repeatedly sought the Nobel Peace Prize throughout his political career, has publicly indicated a willingness to accept the accolade from Machado should she choose to offer it to him. Various political sources confirm that Trump's advisers are arranging a meeting between the pair, organised in the context of broader discussions on Venezuela's future leadership and post-Maduro transition.
