Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro has reacted with fury to the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to opposition leader Maria Corina Machado. Machado, a prominent critic of Maduro, dedicated her award to U.S. President Donald Trump, who has been associated with efforts to promote regime change in Venezuela. This development raises significant questions about the future of Maduro's hold on power and the broader implications for democracy in the country. The award not only highlights the international recognition of Machado's efforts but also intensifies the existing political tensions within Venezuela, as Maduro's government faces increasing scrutiny and opposition both domestically and internationally.
