The Empty Chair in Oslo: The Global Reflection of Venezuelan Oppression

Today, December 10th, at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony, there will be a physically empty chair. But that absence was not an oversight; it was the most brutal imposition of the Nicolás Maduro regime.

María Corina Machado, the legitimate winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, was unable to attend in Oslo. Her inability to leave the country is the exact reflection of the reality of every Venezuelan yearning for freedom. If the most recognized voice of the opposition cannot exercise her right to travel to receive the highest peace award, what hope is left for the common citizen?

This empty chair symbolizes:

1. The denial of basic rights: The regime not only persecutes but also imprisons those who think differently and restricts the right of every citizen to enter or leave their own country.

2. The fear of the Narco-Terrorist Top Brass: They fear the truth that Machado represents on a global stage. They fear that her presence will amplify the crisis and the need for a democratic transition.

3. Forced exile: Hundreds of thousands have had to leave Venezuela, just like Machado, who is exiled within her own territory, surrounded by tyranny.

The international community and all defenders of democracy must not view this chair as a mere incident, but as an emergency call. It is a reminder that the fight for human rights in Venezuela is a battle that is far from over.

#LaSillaVacía (The Empty Chair) is the mirror of oppression.
