“Whatever happens to the medal, diploma or prize money, it is and always will be the original winner who will go down in history as the recipient of the prize»underlined the Nobel committee, based in Oslo, in a press release.
The Nobel committee in Oslo, which awards the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize, recalled on Friday that this award was “indissociable” of the person who received it, after the presentation by the Venezuelan opponent María Corina Machado of her medal to Donald Trump. The day before, the 2025 laureate had offered her Nobel Prize medal during a meeting at the White House with Donald Trump, who is keeping her out of his strategy for Venezuela.
“Whatever happens to the medal, diploma or prize money, it is and always will be the original winner who will go down in history as the recipient of the prize”underlined the committee in a press release. “Even if the medal or diploma should subsequently change ownership, this in no way changes the identity of the person or organization to whom the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded.”specified the institution.

Once the prize is awarded, this decision is final, explains the jury. The Nobel committee also indicated that it would not comment on “subsequent actions” undertaken by the winners. “There are no restrictions in the statutes of the Nobel Foundation as to what a laureate can do with the medal, diploma or prize money. This means (that he) is free to keep them, give them away, sell them or bequeath them.he wrote in the press release.
Other winners have donated or sold their medals
Donald Trump has made no secret of his desire to be awarded this prize, repeating it on numerous occasions and declaring that it would be “a great honor” for him if Mrs. Machado gave him her prize. María Corina Machado was rewarded for her efforts towards a democratic transition in Venezuela.
Other Nobel Prize winners have, throughout history, also chosen to give away or sell their medals, such as Kofi Annan (2001 Peace Prize) or James Watson (1962 Medicine Prize). Russian journalist Dmitri Mouratov (2021 Peace Prize) sold his medal for $103.5 million in June 2022, an amount paid in full to the Unicef fund for Ukrainian refugee children.
