Venezuela's María Corina Machado accuses the government of blocking her return after the earthquake
“They want to block my return to Venezuela,” Machado said in a video posted on social media, in which she said she was in Panama. The Nobel Peace Prize laureate, in exile since late 2025, said she intended to travel to her country to support the quake's victims and accused the authorities of “mobilizing the state apparatus” to stop her, including, she said, the cancellation of commercial flights. “This is not about me; we are thousands who want to be together in a country in mourning,” she said.
