Venezuela’s Machado presents Trump with her Nobel Peace Prize during White House meeting

 Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado visited the White House to present her Nobel Peace Prize medal to US President Donald Trump, highlighting her support for his efforts regarding Venezuela's freedom.

• Machado's gesture was in recognition of Trump’s commitment to Venezuelan freedom, following a recent raid that captured Nicolás Maduro and his wife for drug trafficking.

• Trump confirmed on social media that Machado left the medal for him to keep and expressed his honor in meeting her.

• The framed medal presented to Trump served as a symbol of gratitude from the Venezuelan people for his actions related to Venezuela.

• The meeting coincided with political developments in Venezuela, including the new acting President Delcy Rodríguez's address and US military actions against Venezuelan oil tankers.

• Despite the meeting, there are doubts about Machado’s leadership potential, as Trump mentioned she lacks respect and support in Venezuela.

• White House officials described Machado as a brave voice but noted a realistic assessment of her influence.

• Machado urged senators to ensure progress towards elections in Venezuela and expressed confidence in Trump’s support.

Machado's presentation of her Nobel medal to Trump signals significant political maneuvering as Venezuela navigates leadership challenges post-Maduro.
