Controversy over the awarding of the Nobel Prize to Trump

The announcement by Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado that she had presented her Nobel Peace Prize to US President Donald Trump has become a subject of international discussion. Machado stated that she made this decision in recognition of Trump's efforts for the freedom of the Venezuelan people. It is known that Trump has repeatedly commented in the past that he has stopped many wars and that no one is more deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize than him.

After receiving the award from Machado, Trump expressed his happiness, stating that it was a testament to mutual respect. He also thanked Machado in a post on 'Truth Social'. However, the Nobel Committee has clarified the matter. The committee stated that once a Nobel Prize is announced, it cannot be revoked, transferred, or given to someone else.
