US President Donald Trump told reporters that the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, called him and told him that he should be the one to win the award. «The person who won the Nobel Prize called me and told me that he was accepting it in my honor because I really deserved it. I didn’t answer her: ‘then give it to me'”, the president of the United States joked with reporters in the Oval Office. “You can also say that the Nobel was awarded for 2024. I was running for election in 2024,” Trump observed, “I’m happy because I saved millions of lives.” Machado, Trump said, “was very nice. I helped her on her journey. They need a lot of help in Venezuela.”
