Trump plans to meet Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado

President Trump is set to meet with Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado next week, as he revealed during an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity. The president expressed his anticipation for the meeting, calling it a “great honor” if Machado decides to give him her Nobel Peace Prize.

In a previous conversation with The Post, Trump expressed some doubts about Machado’s ability to lead Venezuela following the removal of dictator Nicolas Maduro. However, Machado has shown a willingness to step up and lead alongside Edmundo González, who is recognized by the US as the winner of Venezuela’s last presidential election.

Machado, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2025, has indicated that she plans to personally hand over her prestigious award to President Trump. This gesture has been met with Trump’s approval, as he commented that it could be a “great honor” to receive the prize from Machado.

During her appearance on Hannity, Machado mentioned that she has not been in contact with Trump since winning the Nobel Peace Prize, which she dedicated to the president. She also expressed her intention to return to Venezuela as soon as possible to contribute to the establishment of a transitional government.
