00:00The President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, rejected threats of the U.S. government regarding
00:15the controversy over the Guyana sequiba.
00:20The United States government threatens to impose a high-tariff Dandoso proposal for
00:25the European Union and Canada if they seek to harm the North American country.
00:32The President of Russia Vladimir Putin urged to strengthen the infrastructure and protect
00:38the environment in the Arctic region.
00:50Hello and welcome to From the South, I'm Ana Marrero from the Telesur headquarters
00:54in Caracas, Venezuela, and now we begin with the news.
01:12The President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, rejected threats of the U.S. government regarding
01:16the controversy over the Guyana sequiba.
01:19The Venezuelan President condemned the recent hegemonic declaration by the United States
01:23regarding the territory of the sequiba, pointing out the interest of imperialism in the country's
01:29resources.
01:30For his part, the Venezuelan Foreign Minister, Iván Gil, stated that foreign interests will
01:35not be allowed to try to rewrite the reality of the disputed territory.
01:41All this after the Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio, reiterated the
01:45current commitment of the U.S. government with Guyana and threatens a military intervention
01:50in the country.
01:52These threats have been made since Venezuela announced that it will elect a governor for
01:56the eastern part of the country in its regional elections scheduled for next May the 25th.
02:14They say it is a regime.
02:16The imbecile Marco Rubio threatens Venezuela from Guyana.
02:20Imbecile.
02:21Venezuela is not threatened by anyone because this is the homeland of the liberators.
02:26This is the homeland of Bolívar.
02:28Imbecile.
02:29He says that this is a regime, that this is a dictatorship.
02:33Never in his life has Marco Rubio seen a popular assembly or been to a neighborhood because
02:38they belong to the corrupt elite of Miami, very corrupt, who hate Venezuela.
02:44He is the godfather of La Sayona.
02:46La Sayona doesn't even go to the bathroom unless she asks for permission first of Marco
02:50Rubio.
02:52Traitor to the homeland.
02:53Bunch of traitors.
02:55Look what they have done to the Venezuelan migrants.
02:57Who asked for the persecution of migrants?
02:59Who asked and supported sending them kidnapped to El Salvador?
03:03Who?
03:04Let the people say it, La Sayona, the criminal traitor.
03:08And these people must know that this criminal will be brought to justice soon or later and
03:12she will pay for what she has done to these people.
03:26U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived in Georgetown on Thursday to offer security
03:31guarantees to Guyana regarding Venezuela's legitimate claims over the treachery of Ezequiel.
03:37The U.S. official threatens that it will be a very bad day for Venezuela if it's
03:42allegedly attacked Guyana or the assets of the transnational oil company Exxon Mobil
03:47in the Atlantic.
03:48When he questioned in a press conference, Rubio assured that if there is a presumed
03:54aggression, it will not end well for Caracas.
03:57However, he indicates that he would not say if the United States would respond militarily
04:03to help Guyana.
04:04Marco Rubio did not hide Washington's interest in the exportation of ship oil as well as
04:10in breaking mechanisms to avoid Venezuela's energy influence in the region.
04:23In this context, Venezuelan Vice President Delsi Rodriguez also expressed.
04:26The Zelensky of the Caribbean, Irfan Ali, with tight fans, sought out the miniscule
04:32one who occupies the U.S. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, to pretend to threaten Venezuela.
04:38They both threatened the peace and stability of our region.
04:42The Caribbean-Zelensky scorned the dialogue due to our gun mechanism, taking refuge in
04:47actions of a warlike nature.
04:50They must be very clear that Venezuela will never give up its rights over Guyana-Ezequiel
04:55nor it will allow itself to be intimidated by the despicable ones of international law.
05:01Guyana must immediately stop the illegal and abusive disposition of a ship in Chivira Limited
05:06and immediately sit down at the negotiation table.
05:10Enough of threats were worth it.
05:12Hearts and hearts of the great liberator, Simón Bolívar, do not dare.
05:16Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez informed on Thursday about a meeting held with the
05:31Secretary General of the Association of Caribbean States.
05:34The meeting took place in the context of U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's aggression
05:38against Cuba and its humanitarian project to provide health care and cooperation to
05:44the countries of the region and the world.
05:46The Cuban top diplomat brought on this.
05:49I met with the Secretary General of the Association of Caribbean States, Noemi Espinosa, to whom
05:54I conveyed Cuba's commitment to continue support in the process of revitalizing the
05:59organization and mobilizing resources for regional cooperation projects.
06:12When the Bolivarian National Armed Forces of Venezuela projected on Thursday the threatening
06:16remarks issued by the United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio during his visit to Guyana,
06:22in a statement on exit, the Venezuelan Minister of Defense, Vladimir Padrino López, broad,
06:26it is hard to believe that he called a legitimate or a claim to the Ezequiel territory considering
06:31that the Geneva agreement is a valid legal instrument signed by the parties involved
06:36in the territorial dispute.
06:38The text continues by saying that it causes even greater concern that the Cooperative
06:43Republic of Guyana intends to restore the imperial interference instead of the mechanism
06:48established in the Argyll agreements.
06:50We have already learned that U.S. interference in this territorial dispute could scale dangerously
06:55in the region.
06:56Padrino López ends his post by sentencing that, in the face of these nefarious statements,
07:04the Armed Forces do not and will not tolerate threats from any foreign official or government
07:09consequently.
07:10We will respond with strength and determination to any provocation or action that threatens
07:16the territorial integrity and the sacred interests of the country, because we are the sons and
07:21daughters of Bolivar, and we will defend our freedom, sovereignty and independence of our
07:26lives.
07:27Let's take a very short break, but remember, you can join us on our Tiktok account, Aztele
07:39City English, where you'll be able to see news in different formats, news updates and
07:43more.
07:44Stay tuned for more news.
07:56Welcome back to From the South.
08:07The Venezuelan National Assembly discussed during a session the humanitarian measure
08:11for the repatriation of Venezuelan migrants from the United States.
08:16Members discussed humanitarian measures so that migrants sealed in the United States
08:20can return home safe and sound.
08:23In this regard, the legislators, together with the victims' families, condemned the
08:27criminal actions of the governments of Washington and El Salvador regarding the kidnapping of
08:31more than 200 Venezuelan migrants.
08:34In this context, the President of the Parliament, Jorge Rodríguez, emphasized that the kidnapping
08:38of the 288 migrants detained in El Salvador is a problem for the whole country.
08:44Because those 238 Venezuelan men and women kidnapped in El Salvador are our brothers
08:58and sisters, our sons and daughters, our parents, our uncles and aunts.
09:04This is our family.
09:05We cannot look away.
09:07No Venezuelan can look away.
09:08We cannot say that this is not our problem.
09:11This is our problem.
09:13The rescue of our kidnapped brothers is a life-or-death problem.
09:16Rodriguez also accused Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele of setting up concentration camps
09:27to hold Venezuelans, and said he was staging one of the most dreadful, despicable and shameful
09:33events in the history of America.
09:37The butcher of Nayib Bukele is staging one of the most dreadful, despicable and shameful
09:42events in the history of America to lend his territory to set up concentration camps so
09:51that people who have only committed the crime of being Venezuelans are being held in a maximum
09:56security prison.
10:00That is not a prison.
10:02It is a concentration camp, and our brothers and sisters have no reason to be there.
10:10They are kidnapped by Marco Rubio.
10:13They are kidnapped by David Bukele.
10:23The government of Colombia and the United States signed an agreement on the exchange
10:27of migratory information to strengthen bilateral cooperation in achieving a migratory policy
10:32that respects human rights.
10:34The deal was signed by the Colombian Foreign Minister Laura Sarabia and the United States
10:39Secretary of Homeland Security Christine Nguyen, and its aims are the repatriation of Colombian
10:44nationals from the United States to the South American country.
10:47The U.S. delegation emphasized that Washington is willing to work with Colombia on border
10:52security with the exchange of biometric data.
11:04The United States government threatens to impose higher tariffs than those proposed
11:09for the European Union and Canada if they seek to harm the North American country.
11:13U.S. President Donald Trump denounced that the European Union and Canada are working
11:18together to harm the United States.
11:20If so, the U.S. President declared that it will take measures, increasing tariffs on
11:26a large scale, considering that the entry into force of the 35-percent tariffs on all
11:32automobiles imported to Washington will come into effect on April 2nd.
11:43On Thursday, the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, mentioned that her administration
11:48will give a comprehensive response to the U.S. tariffs, and assured she will always
11:54protect Mexico, the jobs generated in the country and its companies.
12:04The first thing the people of Mexico need to know is that we are always going to protect
12:08Mexico.
12:12That is our responsibility.
12:18We have to defend the jobs that are generated in Mexico, the jobs that exist, and the Mexican
12:23companies as well.
12:25This is part of our fundamental work in the development of the country and in the relationship
12:29with the government of the United States, and always with the principle of sovereignty
12:34of our country, of defending the sovereignty of our country.
12:43Now, of course, within the trade agreement, Mexico-United States-Canada, there should
12:46be no barriers.
12:48That is the essence of the trade agreement."
12:54In Argentina, President Javier Millet announced that the government will receive at least
12:5820 billion U.S. dollars from the International Monetary Fund.
13:02Economy Minister Luis Caputo said that the loan will be provided through the new agreement
13:06with the IMF to be signed in the next few weeks.
13:09Caputo also shared with the agreement it is expected that Argentina's central bank gross
13:15reserve will increase to approximately 50 billion dollars.
13:18Millet's report indicates that the minister did not specify how much of these funds will
13:25be destinated to cancel the first instalments of the program closed in 2022, and how much
13:31will be destinated to cancel non-transferable central banks' bills held by the Treasury.
13:39And moving on, in Bolivia, more than 368,000 families have been affected and 99 municipalities
14:01are in a state of disaster due to the emergency that the country is going through with the
14:05heavy rains.
14:06According to official reports, 818 affected families have lost their homes due to the
14:14rains, floods, landslides and overflowing rivers.
14:18The forecast of the Meteorological and Hydrological Service activated a red alert for almost the
14:23entire country until April 5th, 2025 due to the risk of floods and overflowing rivers.
14:30The declaration of a national state of emergency by the government makes it possible to speed
14:35up response to disasters, to manage external financial resources, to dry up the possible
14:41floods planned and to mobilise more technical, logistical and economic resources in the affected
14:46areas.
14:56Work continues to contain wildfires ranging in South Korea that have left at least 28
15:02people dead, 32 injured and thousands evacuated in a week.
15:06The fires have been catalogued as the worst in the country's history and as a measure
15:11the government declares a state of national disaster.
15:14Flames have devastated more than 36,000 hectares and several helicopters are still dropping
15:19water on the areas due to the strong winds and dry weather that spreads the fire.
15:24In addition, authorities have evacuated 37,185 people some 190 kilometers southeast of Seoul
15:32while another 6,700 are in temporary shelters.
15:37In this context, scientists alert that global warming is making this weather phenomenon
15:43more extreme every year.
