Maria Corina Machado of Venezuela wins the Nobel Peace Prize

OSLO: Opposition activist Maria Corina Machado of Venezuela has won the Nobel Peace Prize. The former opposition presidential candidate in Venezuela was lauded for being a “key, unifying figure in a political opposition that was once deeply divided – an opposition that found common ground in the demand for free elections and representative government,” said Jørgen Watne Frydnes, chair of the Norwegian Nobel committee. Experts say the committee typically focuses on the durability of peace, the promotion of international fraternity and the quiet work of institutions that strengthen those goals.
