"Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado has insisted that her movement will play a role in Venezuela's future, and that after an orderly transition, her country will be the best ally the United States has ever had. Regarding the United States' support for continuity in Venezuela, as represented by interim president Delcy Rodriguez, Macahdo argued that it's not a choice between her and me, but between the cartel and justice. I am just one person within a larger movement."
"The politician and activist who won the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize appeared before the Washington press on Friday at the headquarters of the ultraconservative think tank Heritage Foundation, the day after her meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House a highly anticipated event that the U.S. government tried to keep lowprofile and that left more questions than answers."
"The opposition leader who has expressed her intention to return to Venezuela as soon as possible asserted that she has the unwavering support of the United States for her country. Venezuela will be free, let no one doubt it, and that will be thanks to President Donald Trump. If anything has united the people of the United States, it is Venezuela. She downplayed Washington's support for Rodriguez's continued leadership, arguing that she is only following orders."
Maria Corina Machado appeared before the media after gifting her Nobel Prize medal to U.S. President Donald Trump. She stated that her movement will play a role in Venezuela's future and that, after an orderly transition, Venezuela will become the United States' best ally.
