  "summary": "Opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner María Corina Machado returned to Venezuela on Sunday after nearly a year in exile. Machado announced her arrival on the social media platform X, stating, \"I am here. With you.\" According to France 24 and CBS News, Machado had covertly left the country in December 2025 to accept her Nobel Peace Prize in Norway. Her return follows several failed attempts to enter the country from the United States, Panama, and Curaçao over the last three months, during which she was repeatedly blocked by Venezuelan authorities, according to her party.\n\nMachado's return comes after the U.S. military deposed then-President Nicolás Maduro, an event CBS News and Euronews report occurred approximately one month after she left Venezuela in December. While Newsmax reports that Machado entered the country through Colombia and plans to make a public appearance, she has not disclosed specific details regarding her current location or method of return.\n\nMachado's senior adviser, David Smoalnsky, told CBS News that her return is a significant step toward a democratic transition and verifiable presidential elections. The Venezuelan government considers Machado a fugitive, accusing her of calling for military intervention. Euronews notes that while some believed Washington played a role in blocking her previous return attempts, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has denied that claim.",
