Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has been awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her persistent efforts to promote democratic rights and advocate for a peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy in Venezuela. The Norwegian Nobel Committee recognized her as a symbol of resistance and democratic resilience in Latin America .
Machado, who has faced persecution under Nicolás Maduro's authoritarian regime, remains a prominent figure in the opposition movement. Despite being barred from running for office, she continues to lead the struggle for democracy and human rights in Venezuela .
However, the award has sparked controversy. Critics argue that Machado's support for international sanctions and pressure from other countries against Venezuela's government contradicts the principles of peace. Additionally, her associations with conservative political movements in Europe and right-wing U.S. interests have raised concerns among some observers .
