Trump to Discuss Machado's Role in Venezuela

US President Donald Trump commented on a potential meeting with Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Corina Machado. Trump stated he would discuss her possible role in Venezuela's future with her. "I can't think of anyone in history who deserves the Nobel Prize more than me, and I don't mean to brag, but no one else has solved wars," Trump said. These comments contrast with his previous statements questioning Machado's ability to lead Venezuela due to a lack of support. Machado, in turn, expressed a desire to present her award to Trump, though the Nobel Institute clarified that the prize cannot be transferred to third parties. Earlier, the Vatican had reportedly considered a Russian asylum proposal for Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
