‘Follow the path of exiles’: María Corina Machado’s US-aided escape from Venezuela
NegativeWorld Affairs

- María Corina Machado, a prominent Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate, undertook a perilous journey from Venezuela to Norway, aided by U.S. support, to escape the regime of Nicolás Maduro. Her escape involved navigating through military checkpoints and traveling over 5,500 miles to receive her award in Oslo.
- This development is significant as it highlights the dangers faced by political dissidents in Venezuela and raises questions about Machado's future influence and ability to return to her homeland after such a high-profile escape.
- Machado's situation reflects broader themes of political repression in Venezuela, the role of international support for dissidents, and the ongoing struggle for democracy in the country, as many Venezuelans continue to flee under dire circumstances, risking their lives for a chance at freedom.
