Maria Corina Machado gave Trump her Nobel as part of a high-stakes charm offensive.
President Donald Trump has finally been presented with the Nobel Peace Prize, and all it took was a military operation with 100 or so casualties.
The 2025 winner of the award, Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, told reporters Thursday she “presented” the medal to Trump during a meeting at the White House.
“I presented the President of the United States the medal of the Nobel Peace Prize,” Machado said, comparing it to the Continental Army General Marquis de Lafayette giving Venezuelan revolutionary Simón Bolívar a medal bearing an image of George Washington.
“The people of Bolivar are giving back to the heir of Washington a medal, in this case, the medal of the Nobel Peace Prize, in a recognition for his unique commitment with our freedom,” Machado said.
It wasn’t clear if Trump accepted the medal, which he has long coveted and said he deserved, even as he has ordered military strikes in seven foreign countries in the first year of his second term. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
