00:00Welcome to Tessera English.
00:04We go now to images from Russia as the Venezuelan president,
00:08Nicolás Maduro, is visiting and honoring the martyrs in the Second World War.
00:14We're looking at images at this moment from St. Petersburg
00:19as Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro, continues its work agenda in Russia
00:25in the framework of his participation in the Victory Day,
00:30the 80th anniversary of Soviet victory against the Nazi regime.
00:37That happened in 1945.
00:40We've seen world leaders from across the continents come to Russia
00:44to take part on the celebrations that had its main point at the Victory Parade on May 9th.
00:51Now the world leaders, including Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro,
00:55continue their agenda, and in this case he is paying tribute to those who have fallen
01:03at the Second World War from the Soviet army fighting against the Nazi regime,
01:11a war that came to put an end to Second World War.
01:15That was the commemoration that took part.
01:20World leaders from across the world came to take part
01:23in that commemoration of the historic event,
01:2680 years from the victory of the Red Army over the Nazi regime.
01:33We are seeing images as the president visited the cemeterians in Petersburg,
01:39honoring those victims of the fallen soldiers.
01:44Let's recall that a lot of the agenda has had to do with putting in the forefront the discussion
01:53over the historical relevance regarding a day that changed the history of Europe,
02:01Asia, and the world in terms of putting an end to fascism,
02:05putting an end to the Nazi regime at that time,
02:08and also in a world context in which international solidarity plays a key role
02:14in a new international fight against fascism,
02:18with far-right groups rising at different points of the world,
02:22but also solidarity movements and international cooperation striving to put an end
02:29and also a stop to these movements across the world.
02:33We're looking at images, as we were saying, of President Nicolás Maduro from Venezuela,
02:41currently an official visit in Russia.
02:45Yesterday he took part in the main event of the celebration,
02:51that was the Victory Parade in Moscow.
02:54as he took part together with other world leaders.
03:01We've seen the arrival of leaders from all the continents to Russia.
03:07Latin American heads of state, not only the Venezuelan leader,
03:12but also from Cuba, Miguel DĂaz-Canel from Brazil,
03:16Luis Ignacio Lula da Silva.
03:17Also from Asia, Chinese President Xi Jinping was one of the key appearances at this event
03:25and also showing the support and the international strength of this coalition
03:31that strives to put an end, a stop to fascism as it did in 1945.
03:39We'll listen to the images from St. Petersburg.
03:47We'll see you next time.
04:17We'll see you next time.

05:53We'll see you next time.
05:55We'll see you next time.
05:57We'll see you next time.
05:59We'll see you next time.

06:19We'll see you next time.
06:20the Second World War and that also put an end to that world conflict and also helped
06:26shape the world as it came to be afterwards.
06:30We're looking at images from the Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro as he participates
06:38in this honoring of those victims.
06:42The whole week has been a celebration and also a commemoration of the lives of those
06:49who died at that moment and gave their lives for such an important historical event.
06:58One of the aspects that was underscored by the people, also by world leaders, had to do
07:04with the unity of the Soviet people at the then Soviet Union that participated, not only
07:13the Russian people, but also from the different nations that made up the Soviet Union at the
07:20time that fought hand in hand all together as part of that Red Army that finally had a victory
07:31over Nazism.
07:33So we're looking at that tribute at the moment with the laying of wrath at the cemetery.
07:45We were looking at these images that are from Russia as the official agenda continues in
07:52this participation.
07:56In this case, in St. Petersburg, we've been seeing the world leaders at Moscow yesterday
08:01at the main event, and in this case, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, accompanied by
08:07First Commander Cidia Flores, are now in St. Petersburg, former Leningrad, honoring
08:15those victims as part of the world commemorations.
08:25We continue to see the images of this moment from Russia.
08:31Let's recall that one of the most important aspects of this commemoration have to do with
08:41showing the international relevance of a historical event and also combating Western narratives that
08:50have tried to push aside the mere existence of May 9th, Russia's Victory Day, as a day that
09:00changed the curse and put an end to World War II.
09:05After that moment, we've been covering it here in Telesur English.
09:09After that moment, Western narratives have tried to impose a narrative of that historical event
09:20that underplayed the role of the Soviet Union in that victory that changed the course of the
09:31rise of fascism across Europe.
09:34Thank you very much.
