“Oh my god��� I have no words.”

Listen to the emotional moment this year’s laureate Maria Corina Machado finds out she has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Kristian Berg Harpviken, Director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute, shared the news with her directly before it was announced to the world.

In the past year, #NobelPeacePrize laureate Maria Corina 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 of people.

When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognise courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist. Democracy depends on people who refuse to stay silent, who dare to step forward despite grave risk, and who remind us that freedom must never be taken for granted, but must always be defended – with words, with courage and with determination.

@HorstLang12 @MAStrackZi Der Post war ja von Söder. Das das Taktgefühl fehlt es noch am selben Tag zu posten kann man Steinmeier nicht vorwerfen, oder?

[Michael Steffens @MichaelSteffens]

@MAStrackZi @GundahariusA Ich würde Mal sagen ihr Kommentar war noch würdeloser als der eigentliche Post. Man muss nicht jeden Fehlgriff ausnutzen um Punkte gegen den "Gegner" zu machen, dafür ist das Ereignis einfach viel zu wichtig. Ich denke als einer der Köpfe der FDP könnten sie das besser.

@jensspahn In Bayern regiert aber die CSU. Ist das nicht ihre Schwesterpartei?

@elonmusk As a German, I can only say it makes a huge difference how the arm arrives in that position. Any "misunderstanding" could have been easily avoided.

@realDonaldTrump I don't agree with these priorities. Please save the dogs and cats first.

@elonmusk Not every issue is about the US election.

It is a historic day when an Afghan woman is nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Women’s rights activist, Ms. Mahbouba Seraj is a finalist for the prestigious prize and I wish her luck in the selection process!

At a time when millions of Afghan women are oppressed & their basic rights have been taken away by the Taliban, Ms. Seraj’s win would prioritize the plight of all Afghan women and girls. There is no peace without justice for women and girls.

I spent my first months as an Afghan refugee in a New York homeless shelter with my mother and brother.

Now, I'm back in New York, but this time as a tech startup founder, studying at @Columbia.

Education is the fundamental right of every Afghan girl. Give them the chance to learn and they'll reach heights beyond imagination. I'm a testament to that.

I was honored to share my journey at the @ColumbiaGS Scholarship Gala. Incredibly grateful to be a part of this amazing community.

Thank you for having me.
