Venezuela's Attorney General Warns Machado on Nobel Prize

Venezuelas Attorney General Issues Warning to Opposition Leader María Corina MachadoVenezuelas Attorney General, Tarik William Saab, has warned that opposition leader María Corina Machado will be considered a fugitive if she travels to Norway to accept her Nobel Peace Prize. Machado, who is accused of conspiracy, inciting hatred, and terrorism, has been living in hiding to avoid arrest. She was named the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts towards a peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy. The Nobel Committee hailed her as one of the most extraordinary examples of civilian courage in Latin America. However, Machado was barred from running in last years presidential elections, where Maduro won a third six-year term. The elections were widely dismissed as neither free nor fair, sparking protests. Machado has been actively encouraging the Venezuelan military to switch sides and turn against Maduro. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
