Trump said in a post today: "I am deeply honored to have met Maria Corina Machado of Venezuela today. She is a remarkable woman who has endured great hardships. Maria has gifted me her Nobel Peace Prize, recognizing the work I have done - this gesture is full of mutual respect and is extremely precious. Thank you, Maria!"
Comment: Trump loudly claimed that Machado gifted him the Nobel Peace Prize, showcasing his long-standing obsession with the award, even boasting about it just for the sake of handing over the medal. Meanwhile, Machado's move is a precise act of speculation. In pursuit of the presidency of Venezuela, she is willing to use the Nobel Prize as a token of submission to please Trump, hoping to bind with the United States for political endorsement. However, she ignores Trump's consistent prioritization of interests, and the U.S. is actually eyeing Venezuela's geopolitical value and energy resources, not genuinely supporting her to take power.
After the U.S. raided and arrested former Venezuelan President Maduro two weeks ago, they took the former vice president Rodriguez as a dialogue partner. At the same time, Machado was quickly marginalized. Trump called her "unfit to govern because she does not get support and respect at home." On Thursday, the White House stated that the president's view on this matter has not changed.
