The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado — a politician who has openly called for sanctions that killed tens of thousands of her own people, supported a military coup, and aligned herself with U.S. interests against her country.
In this in-depth investigation, we expose how the Nobel Peace Prize has been used for decades as a tool of Western propaganda — rewarding figures like Kissinger, Obama, and now Machado — not for peace, but for serving imperial agendas.
We’ll reveal the hidden history of Venezuela’s struggle, the manipulation of media narratives, and the global machinery that turns traitors into “heroes of democracy.”
👉 Stay until the end to understand how imperial propaganda works — and why Venezuela’s sovereignty remains one of the last frontlines in the global fight against domination.

00:00October 10th, 2025. Once again, the Nobel Committee delivers its peace prize to someone
00:12who promotes no peace whatsoever. This time, the chosen one is Maria Corina Machado, a woman
00:18disqualified by Venezuelan justice who calls for sanctions against her own people, who meets with
00:24U.S. imperialists, and who is now crowned by the European elite as a hero of democracy. But who
00:29really is Maria Corina Machado? Why did she receive a prize that has been given to Henry Kissinger,
00:35architect of genocides, and to Barack Obama, who bombed seven countries? Today we're going to
00:40deconstruct this narrative. Stay with me until the end, because what the media doesn't tell you
00:45about her will surprise you. Before we talk about Maria Corina, we need to understand what the Nobel
00:51Peace Prize really is. Did you know that this prize, unlike the other Nobels, is not delivered
00:57by the Swedish Academy, but by a Norwegian political committee? Five members appointed by the Parliament
01:02of Norway, a NATO member country, historic ally of the United States. Let's look at the historical facts.
01:10In 1973, Henry Kissinger received the Nobel Peace Prize while secretly bombing Cambodia.
01:16Yes, the same Kissinger who orchestrated coups d'etat in Latin America, including
01:21in Chile against Salvador Allende. The same one who supported military dictatorships that tortured
01:26and killed hundreds of thousands of people around the world. In 1989, the Dalai Lama was awarded as a
01:32symbol of peace and human rights. But the narrative doesn't tell you that he represented a feudal theocracy
01:39in Tibet, where 95% of the population were serfs without rights. The CIA financed his resistance against
01:46China with millions of dollars. Not out of concern for human rights, but for geopolitical
01:51interest against the communist giant. Declassified documents showed direct CIA payments to the Dalai
01:57Lama for decades. In 1990, Mikhail Gorbachev received the prize for his leading role in the peace process,
02:04which today characterizes important parts of the international community. The translation?
02:08For dissolving the Soviet Union and handing over Eastern Europe to Western capitalism?
02:13For dismantling the only power that challenged U.S. hegemony? Gorbachev was awarded for being useful
02:19to the empire. While millions of Russians fell into poverty after neoliberal reforms,
02:25in 1991, Aung San Suu Kyi was celebrated as a democratic heroine. Years later, as Myanmar's leader,
02:33she was accused of genocide against the Rohingya people. In 2009, Barack Obama won the Nobel just nine months
02:41after taking office. The result? Expanded the wars in Afghanistan and Libya, bombed Syria, Pakistan,
02:49Somalia, Yemen. His administration carried out more drone strikes than any predecessor, killing thousands
02:55of civilians. And now, 2025, Maria Karina Machado. See the pattern? The Nobel Peace Prize is not about
03:04peace. It's about geopolitical alignment. It's about rewarding those who serve Western imperial interests,
03:10especially when it comes to destabilizing governments that challenge American hegemony.
03:15Venezuela, since Hugo Chavez, represents exactly that, a country that nationalized its oil,
03:20that refused to hand over its natural resources to multinational corporations,
03:24that built alliances with Cuba, Russia, China, and Iran. A country that said no to the empire.
03:31And that's why Maria Karina Machado is being crowned today. So who is this woman that the
03:36Western establishment celebrates so much? Maria Karina Machado was born in 1967 into a family of
03:43the high Venezuelan elite. Her father, Enrique Machado Thulahuaga, was a steel magnate. We're not
03:50talking about middle class. We're talking about the Venezuelan industrial oligarchy. She studied at private
03:56schools in Venezuela and then at boarding schools in the United States. She graduated in engineering
04:02and finance. She had a brief career in business before entering politics. Ask yourselves, how many
04:08Venezuelans have access to this type of education? How many can study at elite schools in the U.S.?
04:13This is the first clue about who she really represents. In 2002, Maria Karina co-founded the
04:19organization Sum8, supposedly to promote free and fair elections in Venezuela. But here's what the
04:25corporate media doesn't tell you. Sum8 received direct funding from the National Endowment for
04:30Democracy, or NED, a U.S. organization that functions as the CIA's arm for regime change. The NED itself
04:38admits, it does what the CIA used to do secretly in the 60s and 70s. Documents show that Sum8
04:44received over $100,000 from the NED. This money was used to organize the recall referendum against
04:50Hugo Chavez in 2004. But let's go deeper. 2002, there was an attempted coup d'etat against the
04:58democratically elected president Hugo Chavez. A coup that had explicit support from the United States,
05:04the CIA, and the Venezuelan business elite. Maria Karina Machado was one of the signatories of the
05:10Carmona Decree. The document that dissolved all democratic powers of Venezuela during the 48 hours
05:17when the coup temporarily succeeded. She literally supported a military coup that kidnapped an elected
05:23president. When the Venezuelan people descended from the hills of Caracas to defend their democracy
05:28and restore Chavez to power. Maria Karina was on the side of the coup plotters. She was elected as a
05:35deputy in 2010 with high votes. It's true. But look at the contradiction. She represents the richest
05:41sectors of Caracas, not the popular neighborhoods, not the workers who constitute the majority of the
05:46Venezuelan people. During her mandate, she was one of the most strident voices against any social reform,
05:52against land redistribution, against price controls in times of speculation, against the social
05:57missions that lifted millions out of poverty. Her ideology is clear. Ultra-liberal, neo-liberal,
06:04in favor of total privatization of PDVSA, the state oil company. She wants to hand Venezuelan oil back to
06:11the multinationals. In 2014, something extraordinary happened. Maria Karina Machado, still a Venezuelan deputy,
06:20went to Panama to participate in an OAS session, as Panama's representative. Read that again.
06:25A Venezuelan deputy presented herself as a representative of another country to attack
06:31her own country. This is a very serious constitutional violation. In Venezuela, as in any country, you cannot
06:39represent foreign powers while holding public office. She was removed from her mandate by the National
06:44Assembly for this explicit treason. But for the Western media, this was political persecution. Now we come
06:51to the darkest aspect of Maria Karina Machado, her explicit campaign for economic sanctions against
06:58Venezuela. She traveled repeatedly to the United States. She met with Republican and Democratic senators.
07:05She met with Marco Rubio, one of Latin America's greatest enemies. And what did she ask for?
07:10Tougher sanctions against her own country. Let's be absolutely clear about what these sanctions are.
07:15U.S. sanctions against Venezuela blocked approximately $30 billion in Venezuelan assets.
07:22They prevented Venezuela from selling oil, its main source of revenue. It blocked the import of
07:26medicines, food, spare parts for hospitals. A study by CEPR, the Center for Economic and Policy Research,
07:35estimated that the sanctions caused the death of more than 40,000 Venezuelans between 2017
07:40and 2018 alone. Yes, 40,000 deaths from lack of medicines, lack of food, from the collapse of
07:49the health system. Alfred Desaias, former U.N. rapporteur, denounced these sanctions as crimes against
07:55humanity. And who is one of the main spokespeople asking for these sanctions? Maria Karina Machado.
08:02She literally asked for her people to be economically strangled. And now, she receives a peace prize for it.
08:09Imagine if a politician from your country went to the United States asking for sanctions against
08:14your country that would starve your people to death. Would this politician be considered a hero
08:19or a traitor? Now let's move to 2024, the Venezuelan presidential elections. The Western
08:26narrative is simple. Maria Karina won the opposition primaries with 90% of the votes. She was unjustly
08:32disqualified by Maduro's authoritarian regime. And this proves that Venezuela is not democratic.
08:38But let's look at the facts they don't tell you. Maria Karina was disqualified by the general
08:43controller of the republic, and the decision was confirmed by the Supreme Court of Justice
08:48in June 2023. The legal reasons, her involvement in the corruption plot orchestrated by Juan Gudo,
08:55which included the attempt to steal Venezuelan assets abroad, support for the criminal economic
09:00blockade against Venezuela, and participation in the coup attempt in Guaido's illegal self-proclamation.
09:06But here's the question no one asks. Why was she able to participate in opposition primaries
09:11if she was already disqualified beforehand? The answer, because the Venezuelan opposition
09:17decided to hold its internal primaries ignoring Venezuelan law. They knew she was disqualified,
09:23but they put her as a candidate anyway to create exactly this narrative. Look how authoritarian they
09:28are. They won't let our candidate run. It's a propaganda strategy. And it worked perfectly with the Western
09:34media. When Maria Karina was officially barred, the opposition presented Edmundo Gonzalez Arrusha
09:40as a substitute candidate. It's an unknown diplomat, without his own political base,
09:46clearly a puppet of Maria Karina. After the July 2024 elections, where Nicolas Maduro was declared the
09:53winner by the National Electoral Council, the opposition cried fraud. But here's what they don't tell you.
09:59The opposition refused to participate in electoral audits. They didn't present concrete evidence of
10:05fraud to the competent bodies. Gonzalez fled to Spain instead of fighting judicially. Maria Karina
10:11allegedly fled Venezuela, or is in hiding. If you really won an election and can prove it, why flee
10:18the country? Why not present the evidence to the courts? After the elections, Maria Karina's supporters
10:24promoted violent attacks. They burned voting centers. Attacked headquarters of the United Socialist
10:30Party of Venezuela. There were deaths on both sides. But the Western media only shows protesters being
10:36repressed, never shows protesters setting fire to public buildings. Maria Karina Machado is not an
10:44isolated case. She is part of a well-established pattern of how the U.S. empire operates in Latin America.
10:50Remember Juan Guido? In 2019, this unknown deputy self-proclaimed himself interim president of
10:56Venezuela? The United States, Bolsonaro's Brazil, and more than 50 countries recognized this farce.
11:03Guido never won a presidential election. Never. He simply declared himself president,
11:08and the empire validated it. Result? Failed coup attempt? Mercenary invasion attempt? Operation Gideon?
11:14Theft of billions of dollars in Venezuelan assets? Guido today is discredited even among the
11:20Venezuelan opposition. Maria Karina is trying to play the same game. The difference is that she has a
11:26slightly larger base and is more charismatic. In 2019, Ivo Morales, indigenous president of Bolivia,
11:33won the elections democratically. The OAS Organization of American States, controlled by the U.S.,
11:40published a false report alleging fraud. Result? Military coup. Ivo fled to save his life.
11:47Janine Inez, a far-right Christian fascist, took power and massacred indigenous protesters.
11:54Later, independent studies by MIT proved there was no fraud in Ivo's elections. But the coup was
12:00already done. A year later, the Bolivian people voted and elected Ivo's party again. But how many
12:08died in the meantime? Honduras, Haiti, Nicaragua, Ecuador, Argentina. In every country that tries
12:15progressive policies that challenges neoliberalism, that dares to nationalize natural resources? The
12:22empire and its local elites react in the same way. They finance right-wing opposition. They use
12:28organizations like NED to promote democracy. They create narratives of dictatorship and
12:34authoritarianism. They apply brutal economic sanctions. They legitimize coups or interventions.
12:41Maria Carina Machado is just the latest piece in this imperial game. Venezuela is not perfect.
12:48Maduro government made mistakes. The economic crisis was real. The massive emigration of
12:54Venezuelans was real. But let's contextualize honestly. The Venezuelan crisis has multiple causes.
13:00The brutal drop in oil prices from 2014 to 2016. U.S. economic sanctions starting in 2017.
13:07The international financial blockade. Economic management errors by the government. Corruption,
13:13which exists in all governments, not just in Venezuela. But Western media attributes 100%
13:19of the blame to Maduro and socialism, completely ignoring the role of economic imperialism.
13:25Under Chavez and even under Maduro, Venezuela drastically reduced extreme poverty before the
13:29sanctions. It increased literacy to almost 100%. It expanded access to health through the missions.
13:36It distributed millions of free apartments to poor families. It maintained one of the most active
13:42participatory democracies in the region. Venezuela has more elections than any other Latin American
13:48country. Between 1998 and 2024, there were more than 25 electoral processes. Cavismo lost some
13:57and accepted the results. It won the majority and the opposition never accepted. Yes, there is repression in
14:05Venezuela. Yes, there are human rights violations. But let's compare. How many protesters were killed
14:13by police in Venezuela in the last 10 years? Now compare with Colombia. Hundreds of protesters killed
14:18just in 2021. Chile during the 2019 to 2020 protests. Brazil, daily massacres in the peripheries.
14:26United States. Black lives matter. The difference. When violence happens in countries aligned with the US, the media calls it restoration of order. When it happens in Venezuela, it's brutal dictatorship. So what does Maria Corina Machado really represent? Maria Corina doesn't hide her political project. She wants to completely privatize PDVSA. End the social missions.
14:56Align unconditionally. Align unconditionally with the United States. In other words, return to pre-Chavez Venezuela.
15:02The Venezuela where 80% of the population lived in poverty, while the elite lived like oil kings. Within Venezuela, Maria Corina has support from the old economic oligarchy. Sectors of the upper middle class who lost privileges. Some popular sectors tired of the crisis, which is legitimate.
15:18The conservative Catholic Church. It's business groups that want to control the country again. Outside Venezuela, she has support from the United States government, especially the far-right Republicans. Marco Rubio, who openly calls for military intervention.
15:34Milet's government in Argentina, Bolsonaro in Brazil, European right. Look at the allies. Look at who celebrates her. They're the same ones who celebrated Pinochet, who supported military dictatorships, who promote imperialist wars. Something no one mentions. The right-wing Venezuelan opposition has always had a deeply racist character. The Chavasta base is mostly black, indigenous, mestizo. They're the poor,
16:04the historically excluded. Maria Corina and the elite opposition are predominantly white of European descent. At opposition demonstrations, you see one Venezuela. At Chavista demonstrations, you see a completely different Venezuela. This is not just a political conflict. It's a class and race conflict that goes back to the foundation of Venezuela. How do I identify imperial propaganda? Here are the signs.
16:32First, double standards. When the media calls elections fraudulent in Venezuela, but doesn't question problematic elections in U.S. allied countries.
16:42Second, selective victims. They only count the dead on one side, and they only show repression of opposition protesters, never the violent attacks by the opposition itself.
16:52Third, loaded language. Regime for Venezuela, government for allied countries. Dictator for Maduro, president for others with similar practices. Democracy always equals alignment with the West.
17:06Fourth, unilateral sources. Western media endlessly cites NGOs funded by the U.S., but ignores reports from independent organizations that contradict the narrative.
17:16Fifth, strategic omission. They never mention the sanctions, never contextualize the crisis, never explain the history of U.S. interference in Latin America.
17:28Maria Corina Machado is constructed by propaganda as an immaculate heroine. Any criticism of her is censored or called regime propaganda, but a materialist analysis, based on concrete facts, shows another story.
17:42She is a representative of the Venezuelan oligarchy that never accepted losing its privileges.
17:48She is a politician who explicitly asked for sanctions that killed tens of thousands of her own people.
17:55She is a coup plotter who supported the violent overthrow of a democratically elected president in 2002.
18:02She is an unconditional ally of the U.S. empire and its projects of domination over Latin America.
18:08But the Nobel Peace Prize, as we've seen, is not about peace. It never was.
18:15It's an instrument of imperial propaganda, a way to legitimize those who serve Western geopolitical interests.
18:21The Venezuelan people, the real people, not the Caracas elite, continue resisting.
18:27Resisting the sanctions, resisting the coups, resisting the intervention.
18:31They know that if Maria Corina comes to power with U.S. support, what comes next is not democracy.
18:37It's brutal privatization. It's handing over natural resources. It's the return to massive poverty.
18:43They've already lived this movie before Chavez. They don't want to repeat it.
18:47Our task as anti-imperialists is clear.
18:50Denounce imperial propaganda.
18:51Defend the self-determination of peoples.
18:54Demand the end of criminal sanctions.
18:55Build real solidarity with peoples in struggle.
18:59Venezuela is not perfect. No country is.
19:03But the right to define its future belongs to Venezuelans.
19:06Not to Washington. Not to Norway.
19:09Not to corporate media.
19:11Share this video.
19:12Information is a weapon against propaganda.
19:15Study Latin American history.
19:17See how the empire operates.
19:18Iran, 1953.
19:20Guatemala, 1954.
19:22Congo, 1961.
19:24Brazil, 1964.
19:26Chile, 1973.
19:28Nicaragua in the 80s.
19:30Iraq, 2003.
19:31Libya, 2011.
19:33Now trying in Venezuela.
19:35The pattern repeats because it works.
19:37But it only works when peoples are not informed.
19:40When there is no anti-imperialist consciousness.
19:43Maria Corina Machado may have her Nobel.
19:46She may have her legitimation by the European elite.
19:50She may have the support of the world's corporate media.
19:53But she does not have, and never will have, legitimacy before the millions of Venezuelans
19:59who know exactly what she represents.
20:02The return to a past of exploitation, subordination, and misery for the majority.
20:08History will judge.
20:09History, comrades, is not usually kind to the traitors of their people.
20:13And don't forget, like the video and subscribe to the channel to keep thinking the world how
20:18it really is.
