委内瑞拉反对派领袖 Machado 获2025年诺贝尔和平奖
2025年10月10日，挪威奥斯陆，挪威诺贝尔委员会宣布，将2025年诺贝尔和平奖授予委内瑞拉反对派领袖 Maria Corina Machado，表彰她为委内瑞拉人民争取民主权利所作的不懈努力，以及推动该国从独裁和平过渡到民主的奋斗。
委员会说，Machado 是委内瑞拉民主运动的领袖，是拉丁美洲近年最杰出的平民勇气典范之一。她把一度严重分裂的反对派凝聚起来，各方在要求自由选举与代议政府这一点上找到共同立场。委员会主席 Jørgen Watne Frydnes 称她是勇敢而坚定的和平捍卫者，在日益蔓延的黑暗中守护民主的火光。
Machado 二十多年前参与创办致力于民主发展的组织 Súmate，主张以选票代替子弹。她曾任国会议员，长期为司法独立、人权与民意代表发声。2024年大选前，她本是反对派的总统候选人，参选资格被当局阻止，她转而支持另一政党的候选人 Edmundo González Urrutia。数十万志愿者受训担任选举观察员，在面临骚扰、逮捕与酷刑风险的情况下守住投票站，并留存各选区的计票结果。反对派公布的计票显示其以明显优势获胜，但当局拒绝承认选举结果，继续掌权。
委员会指出，委内瑞拉已从一个相对民主、繁荣的国家变为专制国家，深陷人道与经济危机，近800万人离开该国。过去一年里，Machado 被迫躲藏生活，面对严重的人身威胁仍留在国内，委员会说这一选择鼓舞了数百万人。
委员会说，Machado 符合诺贝尔遗嘱中和平奖得主的三项标准：她团结了本国反对派，从未动摇地抵制委内瑞拉社会的军事化，并始终坚定支持向民主的和平过渡。委员会表示，民主是持久和平的前提，Machado 展现出民主的工具同样是和平的工具。

Venezuelan Opposition Leader Machado Wins the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize
On October 10, 2025, in Oslo, Norway, the Norwegian Nobel Committee announced that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2025 was awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, 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 committee said Machado, the leader of the democracy movement in Venezuela, is one of the most extraordinary examples of civilian courage in Latin America in recent times. She has been a key, unifying figure in a political opposition that was once deeply divided, an opposition that found common ground in the demand for free elections and representative government. Committee chair Jørgen Watne Frydnes called her a brave and committed champion of peace who keeps the flame of democracy burning amid a growing darkness.
More than 20 years ago, Machado helped found Súmate, an organisation devoted to democratic development, standing up for free and fair elections in what she described as a choice of ballots over bullets. She served in political office and has spoken out for judicial independence, human rights and popular representation. Ahead of the 2024 election, she was the opposition's presidential candidate, but the regime blocked her candidacy, and she backed Edmundo González Urrutia of a different party instead. Hundreds of thousands of volunteers were trained as election observers and, despite the risk of harassment, arrest and torture, kept watch over polling stations and made sure the final tallies were documented. The opposition publicised vote counts showing it had won by a clear margin, but the regime refused to accept the election result and clung to power.
The committee said Venezuela has evolved from a relatively democratic and prosperous country into an authoritarian state suffering a humanitarian and economic crisis, and that nearly 8 million people have left the country. Over the past year, Machado has been forced to live in hiding and has remained in the country despite serious threats against her life, a choice the committee said has inspired millions of people.
The committee said Machado meets all three criteria in Alfred Nobel's will for a Peace Prize laureate: she has brought her country's opposition together, she has never wavered in resisting the militarisation of Venezuelan society, and she has been steadfast in her support for a peaceful transition to democracy. Democracy is a precondition for lasting peace, the committee said, and Machado has shown that the tools of democracy are also the tools of peace.
