María Corina Machado, who spent over a year in hiding in Venezuela, greeted supporters in Oslo, hours after her daughter accepted the Nobel Peace Prize in her name.

María Corina Machado, the Venezuelan opposition leader, said she was on her way to Norway after living in hiding in her country, where officials have threatened her with arrest.

María Corina Machado, the Venezuelan opposition leader honored by the Nobel committee, has urged President Trump to help oust the ruler of her country, Nicolás Maduro.

The committee that awards the Nobel Peace Prize was looking into whether there was advance knowledge of María Corina Machado’s win.

Ms. Machado built Venezuela’s biggest opposition movement and lives in hiding from President Nicolás Maduro’s authoritarian government.
