Machado's 1st TV interview after Maduro's capture: Why Venezuelan opposition leader hasn't returned

Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Corina Machado said she plans to return to Venezuela as soon as possible following the capture of President Nicolás Maduro in a U.S. military operation. Speaking to Fox News, Machado called the U.S. action a major step for freedom, human dignity, and democracy. Widely regarded as Maduro’s most credible political rival, Machado left Venezuela last month to travel to Norway, where she received the Nobel Peace Prize for her struggle against dictatorship. Her return could mark a pivotal moment in Venezuela’s rapidly evolving political landscape.
