Demonstrations broke out in Oslo as Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado was expected to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. The Norwegian Nobel Institute cancelled a scheduled press conference, citing uncertainty about Machado’s current location. Machado has faced a decade-long travel ban by President Nicolas Maduro’s government and has been in hiding for over a year.
The Nobel Committee awarded her the prize for her struggle against what it describes as a dictatorship. She has also aligned with U.S. political hawks who argue that Maduro poses a national security threat to the United States — a claim questioned by parts of the U.S. intelligence community.
