"Everything indicates that we will be able to organize a press conference today," Erik Aasheim, press director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute, told the AFP news agency.
Corina Machado's participation in the press conference will mark her first public appearance in eleven months. Since speaking at a demonstration in Caracas in January of this year, she has remained in hiding.
"If I am in Norway that day, it means that Venezuela is already liberated," Corina Machado said in October in an interview with the Norwegian newspaper Dagens Næringsliv .
The Nobel Institute announced earlier this morning that the traditional press conference with the Nobel Laureate, which was to be held at 1 p.m., has been postponed. A new time will be communicated at least two hours in advance, according to news agency NTB.
It is unclear where Corina Machado is. As late as last night, Oslo police announced that she was not expected to arrive then.
Corina Machado's family, however, is in the Norwegian capital. In addition, Argentine President Javier Milei, Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa and Paraguayan President Santiago Peña have all confirmed that they will attend the peace prize ceremony, which is scheduled for Wednesday, NTB reports.
