Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado did not attend the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in Oslo, Norway, on Dec. 10, the head of the Norwegian Nobel Institute said, but confirmed that she had arrived in Oslo hours after the ceremony amid uncertainty about her whereabouts due to death threats from the Maduro regime.
Kristian Berg Harpviken, director of the Nobel Institute, told Norwegian broadcaster NRK on Dec. 10 that Machado “will not be in time to attend” the day’s ceremony or other events.
