The phone call between Trump and Machado comes even though the former has not made any public remark about not winning the prize himself, despite expressing multiple times that he thinks he deserves it, particularly because of his claim of securing several peace deals across the world during his second term.
White House communications director Steven Cheung expressed disappointment over the US President not winning the prize and accused the Nobel Committee of putting “politics over peace”.

“President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives. He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will. The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace,” Cheung said in a post on X.
Even though Trump has not yet publicly reacted to the peace prize announcement, he did share the winner María Corina Machado’s post on social media, in which she dedicated the award to the US President.
After winning the prize on Friday, Machado made a post on X, in which she dedicated the award to the people of Venezuela along with the US President Donald Trump.
“This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom. We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy,” she wrote in the post.
“I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!” she added.
The post was re-shared by Trump on his Truth Social account, however, without any remark or reply.
