LOADING ERROR LOADINGVenezuela opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado said she would personally “love” to give President Donald Trump her prestigious award after the U.S. captured the country’s president, Nicolás Maduro, in a military operation Saturday. “I certainly would love to be able to personally tell him that we believe the Venezuelan people, because this is a prize of the Venezuelan people, certainly want to give it to him and share it with him,” Machado told Fox News’ Sean Hannity Monday. The ousted Venezuelan leader was taken to the U.S., where he is facing narco-terrorism-related charges, and pleaded not guilty Monday. Trump told reporters Saturday he would not support Machado’s bid to lead Venezuela, claiming she lacked “respect” from the people. She had previously dedicated her Nobel prize to him in October, after Trump publicly campaigned for the award himself.
