Machado challenges Maduro from Oslo and asserts that any negotiation must lead to his departure from power

 

During a private meeting with a select group of international media in Oslo, Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado delivered a direct message to the government of Nicolás Maduro: the option of dialogue or negotiation only makes sense if it serves to respect the popular will and facilitate the president's relinquishment of power. She emphasized that this is not a political concession, but rather a mandate from the people, which, in her view, has already been clearly expressed by the Venezuelan people.

The leader also recounted that her arrival in the Norwegian capital was marked by moments of extreme tension and danger. She described the journey as an intense and agonizing experience, during which she felt her life was in real danger. These circumstances, she explained, accompanied her entire journey to attend the ceremony where she was recognized as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.

In her statement to accredited journalists, Machado expressed deep gratitude to those who showed genuine concern for her safety and that of her family. At the same time, she emphasized that she would not provide details about the logistical aspects of her journey, as revealing such information could endanger those who supported her and facilitated her arrival in Oslo.

Beyond the political component, the opposition leader described the experience as a profoundly spiritual process. She noted that, faced with the risks and uncertainty, she decided to entrust herself to God and accept the outcome of the mission according to His will. For Machado, this act of faith was a source of personal strength during one of the most delicate moments of her public career.

Her statements, made within the context of a highly symbolic international recognition, reinforce her position as one of the most visible voices of the Venezuelan opposition and once again place the debate on a political transition at the center of international attention.
