[Venezuela] Machado: The Quiet Genius of Praising Trump | Anne Applebaum

María Corina Machado, a Venezuelan candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize, has been criticized for her controversial actions. Machado, along with five other Nobel Committee members, including Asle Toje, has been accused of conflating peace with militarism, undermining the Prize's moral credibility. The Norwegian Nobel Committee's authority is based on political appointments by Norway's parliament, making claims of impartial global authority increasingly untenable. Machado's false claim that she "deserves" the Nobel Peace Prize for ending "eight wars" on Fox News undermines the Prize's core principles and moral credibility.
