Venezuela Closes Embassy in Oslo

Norway's foreign ministry confirmed that Venezuela had suddenly closed its embassy in Oslo.

The closure comes after Maria Corina Machado, leader of the opposition in Venezuela, won the Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts to restore democracy and free elections.

The Nobel Peace Prize is always chosen by the Norwegian Nobel Committee and awarded in Oslo, but is independent and has no ties to the Norwegian government.

Oslo newspaper VG reported that no one was taking the phone at the embassy and then it was suddenly disconnected.
