Venezuela’s Nobel Peace Prize winner calls on Trump to stop Maduro’s ‘war’ on her country

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado, who was awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize last week, has called for greater US support to stop what she described as a “war” on her country by President Nicolás Maduro.

In an interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour Wednesday, Machado echoed the Trump administration in calling Maduro the leader of a “criminal narco-terrorism structure” while asking US President Donald Trump for greater “help” in unseating him from power.
