This special report covers the announcement of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, a major setback for fellow nominee Donald Trump. The Nobel Committee sent a clear message with its choice, stating, ‘at a time when democracy is under threat, it is more important than ever to defend this common ground’. Machado was honoured for her ‘tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy’. The broadcast analyses the decision with India Today’s Foreign Affairs Editor, Geeta Mohan, who notes that the choice of a prominent Venezuelan opposition figure would likely not displease Washington. The report also touches upon other candidates, including Pope Francis and Elon Musk, and the historical context of controversial past awards, such as the 1994 prize for the Oslo Accords.
