OSLO, Norway (AP) — Opposition activist María Corina Machado of Venezuela won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday.

The former opposition presidential candidate in Venezuela was lauded for being a “key, unifying figure in a political opposition that was once deeply divided — an opposition that found common ground in the demand for free elections and representative government,” said Jørgen Watne Frydnes, chair of the Norwegian Nobel committee.

“In the past year, Miss Machado has been forced to live in hiding. Despite serious threats against her life, she has remained in the country, a choice that has inspired millions. When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist.”

Mr Trump's disregard for international institutions, global concerns over climate change, and his repeated lobbying for the award would have been some of the many reasons he didn't win, according to several experts.

Alfred Nobel's will, the award's foundation, says the award should go to the person "who has done the most or best to advance fellowship among nations".

Simply put, Mr Trump didn't do that, according to Nina Graeger, director of the Peace Research Institute Oslo.
