🇧🇷🤡❌💬🇻🇪 — The Brazilian government, under orders from President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), has declined to issue an official statement on the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado, who remains in hiding under threats from dictator Nicolás Maduro, a former political ally of the Brazilian president

➡️ Although Lula took part in a public event, he refused to answer questions related to the matter. Over the past few days, both the Presidency and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Itamaraty) have avoided confirming whether they would release any statement.

⁉️ In previous years, the Brazilian government did not maintain a consistent policy regarding reactions to Nobel Peace Prize laureates. However, on at least four occasions, it publicly acknowledged the awardees through press releases issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs — most of them under left-wing administrations:

⭐ 2024 – Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the Japanese organization Nihon Hidankyo
⚖️ 2017 – Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the non-governmental organization ICAN
⭐ 2016 – Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos
⭐ 2015 – Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet

🇧🇷 At the Planalto Palace, several voices have spoken against any official government statement regarding Corina’s Nobel. Among them is former foreign minister Celso Amorim.

➡️ Ambassador Celso Amorim, who serves as special advisor to the Presidency, stated that the award has taken on a political tone and that the main concern is its practical consequences. There are fears that the Nobel Prize could encourage an invasion of Venezuela. He also argued that the perspective of the award remains “European” and “distant” from the realities on the ground in Venezuela.
