Trump praises Venezuela's Machado for 'wonderful' Nobel prize gesture

U.S. President Donald Trump heaped praise Thursday on Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado for presenting him with "her Nobel Peace Prize for the work I have done," after they met at the White House.

"She is a wonderful woman who has been through so much," Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform, adding that Machado presenting him with the medal was "such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect."
