Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado was reportedly blocked from entering her homeland three separate times over 24 hours, according to her team.
Machado has been in exile in Panama since being smuggled out of the country in December 2025 to accept her Nobel Peace Prize. Despite the rapid liberalization of the country under interim President Delcy Rodriguez, including the mass release of political prisoners, Machado has been barred from returning on numerous occasions. Her latest concerted attempt occurred on Tuesday, when she tried several different avenues of return, according to AFP.
