Venezuelan Attorney General Tarek William Saab announced that opposition leader María Corina Machado will be considered a “fugitive” if she leaves the country to attend the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony scheduled for December 10 in Oslo. Machado was awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her work advocating democratic rights in Venezuela.
Saab said Machado is currently under multiple criminal investigations. Authorities have accused her of conspiracy, incitement of hatred, terrorism, and supporting the deployment of U.S. military forces in Caribbean waters. According to Saab, leaving Venezuela to receive the prize would place her outside the jurisdiction of Venezuelan courts, triggering a formal designation as a fugitive.
Machado, 58, has been a leading figure in the opposition movement for more than two decades. She has remained in hiding inside Venezuela since the disputed 2024 election. President Nicolás Maduro’s administration has faced widespread international criticism over that election, which several countries declined to recognize due to concerns about fairness and transparency.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee cited Machado’s “tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.” Her award marks the first Nobel Prize ever granted to a Venezuelan citizen. Machado said the recognition amplifies global attention on Venezuela’s political situation and could help protect her as she continues her advocacy.
Machado has expressed interest in attending the ceremony, but doing so could effectively force her into exile or prevent her safe return. The Maduro government has not indicated whether it would attempt to block her travel or allow her to leave the country without consequence.
Diplomatic observers say Venezuela’s handling of Machado’s situation will draw international scrutiny as the Nobel ceremony approaches. The decision could shape how other dissidents weigh the risks of traveling abroad for political or humanitarian recognition.
