"Machado, however, has something Trump has long coveted - a Nobel Prize. She's suggested she would offer her award to the US president and he's said it'd be an "honor" to receive it, although the Norwegian Nobel Institute has said the prize cannot be transferred. Asked on Friday whether receiving Machado's prize would make him reconsider his view of her role in Venezuela, Trump didn't directly answer."
""I'm going to have to speak to her. She might be involved in some aspect of it. I will have to speak to her. I think it's very nice that she wants to come in. And that's what I understand the reason is," the president told CNN's Kaitlan Collins during a meeting with oil executives at the White House. "I can't think of anybody in history that should get the Nobel Prize more than me. And I don't want to be bragging, but nobody else settled wars," Trump said."
María Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner, is scheduled to meet President Donald Trump on Thursday. The meeting follows US military strikes in Caracas and the capture of Nicolás Maduro, with Vice President Delcy Rodríguez sworn in as acting president. Trump previously declined to endorse Machado, saying she lacks support and respect among the Venezuelan people. Machado has suggested she might offer her Nobel Prize to Trump, although the Norwegian Nobel Institute says the prize cannot be transferred. Trump did not directly say whether the prize would change his view and said he would speak with her, and he expressed willingness to meet Rodríguez.
