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

    That’s how he’ll see it for sure, because he’s a narcissistic moron. But actually, it looks as though the individual in question is someone who is as opposed to the current Venezuelan regime as Trump is.

    In principle this should be a good outcome for Trump, if you believe that his values are what he says they are. However I don’t think he could even point to Venezuela on a map of Venezuela, let alone have any interest in who Maria Corina Machado is.
