“She is a wonderful woman who has been through so much. María presented me with her Nobel Peace Prize for the work I have done,” Trump said in his post. “Such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect. Thank you María.”

The White House subsequently shared a picture of Machado holding the medal in a big frame while standing next to Trump in the Oval Office.

The framed medal states that it was presented to Trump “as a personal symbol of gratitude on behalf of the Venezuelan people in recognition of President Trump’s principled and decisive action to secure a free Venezuela.”

Thursday’s meeting between Trump and Machado took place as acting President Delcy Rodríguez delivered her first State of the Union speech in Caracas, and just as US forces in the Caribbean Sea seized another sanctioned oil tanker that the Trump administration says had ties to Venezuela.

Machado’s gesture to Trump followed a series of developments in Venezuela after a blitz US military raid captured Nicolás Maduro and his wife and brought them to New York to stand trial on drug trafficking charges two weeks ago.

During the visit, Machado gave Trump her Nobel Peace Prize medal “as a recognition for his unique commitment to our freedom,” she told reporters outside the US Capitol on Thursday.

Trump confirmed on social media that Machado had left the medal for him to keep, and he said it was an honour to meet her.

“She is a wonderful woman who has been through so much. María presented me with her Nobel Peace Prize for the work I have done,” Trump said in his post. “Such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect. Thank you María.”

The White House subsequently shared a picture of Machado holding the medal in a big frame while standing next to Trump in the Oval Office.

The framed medal states that it was presented to Trump “as a personal symbol of gratitude on behalf of the Venezuelan people in recognition of President Trump’s principled and decisive action to secure a free Venezuela.”
