María Corina Machado wins Nobel Peace Prize. Why is the White House upset?

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has won the Nobel Peace Prize.

The Norwegian Nobel committee praised her as a key unifying figure in the opposition, advocating for free elections and representative government.

Machado has faced serious threats and lives in hiding, inspiring many with her courage.

President Nicolás Maduro’s government disqualified her from running in last year’s presidential election.
