The winner of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize is Venezuelan politician Maria Corina Machado
The award goes to the person or organisation that’s done the most “for fraternity between the nations and the abolition or reduction of standing armies and the formation and spreading of peace congresses”
US President Donald Trump had led a public campaign to win the award, but nominations closed in January - at the start of his second term in office
This far right nepo baby doesn’t look like Greta at all.

The Nobel Peace Prize 2025 was awarded to Maria Corina Machado “for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”
Last few words are almost like they’re thumbing the nose of one specific person.
And this from the press release:
In its long history, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has honoured brave women and men who have stood up to repression, who have carried the hope of freedom in prison cells, on the streets and in public squares, and who have shown by their actions that peaceful resistance can change the world. […]
When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognise courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist. Democracy depends on people who refuse to stay silent, who dare to step forward despite grave risk, and who remind us that freedom must never be taken for granted, but must always be defended – with words, with courage and with determination.
I expect Trump’s navy to murder more Venezuelans, in retaliation for that, over the next few months…

giving a Venezuelan a bigger platform in times of US bullying, well played Norway
Not really she’s a far right POS, it further degrades the Nobel Peace Prize. Which IMO is worthless given they have it to Kissinger.
I hate this for Venezuela. Fuck the “Peace Prize”
I believe peace prize should not be given to a single politician
Far right Trump fluffing toadie 🙄🙄🙄🙄
I’m very relieved to hear that at least some people still have some spine.
It’s still just a bunch of politicians trying not to break an arm jerking themselves off.
He will get it next year, no worries. Or there will be a extraordinary award just for him in between.
I’d have preferred for the prize to go to the Freedom Flotillas.
I’m sending the troops to Venezuela! I’m invading Nobel peace prize! 🫲🍊🫱
Yeah nominate him for Nobel prize of war. So much manlier
I wouldn’t be surprised if he gives himself a made up “president of peace prize”
He will have raged hard hearing the final results.
(Wasn’t eligible for “his” Gaza peace accord anyway, since that came after the decision was finalized early October … but I suspect he was crossing his fingers anyway, because well it’s always about him ofcourse)The word peace should also be in “”
I heard she gave her peace prize to Trump but he refused it.
Trump is gonna be maaaad
I sincerely hope that this is not to troll Trump, but that she genuinely deserves the prize. The world isn’t revolving around Trump. We should have our own lives, joys and worries, without caring what Trump would think of them.
