In his speech during the “Voices of the New World” Forum, Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yván Gil Pinto highlighted the strategic role of communication as a tool of resistance against hegemonic Western narratives. He emphasized the importance of a global alliance between conventional and alternative media and communicators to spread silenced truths, highlighting cases such as the Palestinian cause, the attacks on Iran, and the fight against fascism in Latin America. The forum is presented as a key space for articulating strategies that raise awareness of the struggles for social justice, peace, and the self-determination of nations.
00:00is the cause of the Republic of the Bolivarian Venezuela and the cause of the whole humanity
00:09because for Palestine today this humanity faces multiple threats multiple challenges and of course
00:23and of course it has been just attacked by the issue of communications and the dissemination
00:39of truth which well you know that you have been fighting for transmitting for disseminating the
00:47truth for disseminating what it really happens for comprehending the situations we faced and it
00:58is not a coincidence that you have been summoned to this revolutionary Caracas this Bolivarian Caracas
01:06this socialist Caracas to debate on these challenges and threats today when we see
01:16that the imperialism that that so many times we have denounced and that we see that fascism that
01:27we have combat we have combated and denounced and the neoliberalism that tries to to be activated
01:39and invade and invade and domain that new world we see it emerge and so that that's why our voices have
01:54to be stronger more intense to guide to guide us and some from here from this Caracas from this
02:03Venezuela homeland we have been waging a struggle for many years we are a country that have had the joy the
02:17the black bless bless or the fate of living in a country that has the the largest reserves of oil we've got
02:31we are a we are a we are a country that have over 300,000 millions billions of oil barrels of oil barrels and
02:44so we are a country that 200 years ago had the bliss of counting on the leadership of Liberator Simon Bolivar with
02:58he the he the the the guideline of great thinkers and men and women as the great Miranda and Antonio Jose
03:09the Sucre that were born in this land and and and so started from this land to liberate a whole continent
03:20and promote a new doctrine of liberation of freedom of sovereignty of independence
03:30that marked a whole generation and still marks marks marks us today and this Bolivarian doctrine
03:37we carried carried the doctrine on our blood on our thought beyond the condition of a country
03:51possessing the greatest reserve the the greatest natural reserves of the world we are sure that our
03:59principal condition our main condition is of being a sovereign fighting combative country
04:07that has allowed us all over these years to face
04:13the worst of the directions that this republic has suffered in over 200 years that we've got as in
04:23existing so the president nicolas maduro
04:26has been a leader that has been
04:33that has been suffering all kinds of aggressions as i told you not only the economic blockade which is
04:40pretty enough but sabotage to our oil industry um so appropriation of assets overseas also assassination attempts
04:52attempts to attempts to undermine to change the the social order terrorism so we have been going through a lot here in venezuela in the last 10 years
05:11years and in the last decade we could say that
05:18that the promulgation of that evil executive order of the then president
05:27president barack obama obama against venezuela that we were a threat against their security
05:35so there there have been a lot all over these years and in the in this latest 10 years from the decree of
05:43u.s president obama and so our people have been resilient our people people has been resilient with the leadership of our president nicolas maduro
05:55and so our people has shown their strength their revolutionary awareness and so we have been
06:09done all this by ourselves without
06:16possibilities or a few possibilities that our voice could be heard in the world but that resistance
06:25allowed us has allowed us has allowed us today that our voice be heard today and that and it has allowed
06:35to the to to to win and to start a new era a new era of of economic offensive social political offensive democratic
06:47offensive because a democracy that is a democracy that is constantly perfecting not only with elections but
06:56also with popular participation as our constitution stipulates that our democracy must be a participatory and
07:05protagonist democracy that the protagonism we have make it real today that's why we could go out to
07:12the streets and say it we have uh we have uh ended uh two electoral processes on july 27th
07:26and the ones want to elect mayors but also it was an extraordinary day of the people in which the people
07:36elected the youth projects to be executed in their communities in their communities that's the venezuela that
07:44we are just building and that's the venezuela that we asked you to to show in the world you have
07:54toured all caracas streets and and some have visited the other places and so you could have noticed and and speak to the
08:05people and and asked the people their problems their realities their challenges their fears
08:16and you have you were able to check what it is really like the revolution that brings peace prosperity
08:25welfare and that it has been raised in the world as an example of sovereignty
08:35of bravery with a leader that is our president nicolas maduro moro and that give us the possibility to have
08:47a position in the world of defense of these values that are being threatened today in the world
08:56not only in the example of the palestinian cause but also in all the aggressions
09:05in western asia or middle east as we all know the aggressions toward iran precisely
09:14i would like to read especially colleague or well all of you journalists
09:21who is sahar mommy who is from the islamic republic of iran and that
09:34how is this is
09:47me
09:50sahar
09:53became a symbol of the struggle of all communicators to bring the truth to
10:07tell the truth amid a brutal aggression the bravery of Sahar al-Mami is the
10:16bravery of all journalists and all communicators of the world that have
10:24fallen hundreds have been fallen in Palestine murdered they have fallen in
10:34our land there next to us in Colombia reporters communicators murdered killed

10:48truth and Venezuela is the platform for all of us to tell the truth we just put
10:58all our services to to do that and on behalf of President Nicolás Maduro I
11:06welcome you all and we ask you we invite you precisely to to a great
11:18alliance that we could create a between communicate communicators men and women
11:25from classical conventional media outlets or alternative outlets social media and
11:32the influencers of different platforms to be able to tell the truth for our
11:40truth be heard the be listened to and not only the truth of Venezuela but is the
11:46truth of the peoples the African peoples Asian free peoples Latin American
11:53peoples Caribbean peoples Afro descendant people the truth of women defy the ones
12:00that fight for a better world for a more comfortable protected environment and that
12:12truth could be could just to overcome the lies manufactured created by the by trans
12:25nationals that are just tools of those of that domain domain imperialism that are the
12:32service of fascism as we have seen recently in our Latin America fight fascist
12:43governments that race said in Ecuador and Argentina that they have developed media
12:50media media powerful powerful powerful powerful media apparatus that are capable of vindicating the fascist
12:58values in a in a public way that are capable of to promote xenophobia that are capable of of promoting
13:09exclusion killings domination and so they use for it they are all woven technological
13:22tools military tools of the community of communication it is a battle that we have to wage and that commander Chavez
13:32always was always was always very accurate by identifying sooner in the Bolivarian revolution that was the main battle that we have to wage so today we
13:50we we we are here to celebrate and that as of this photo we could build that alliance
13:57we could build that alliance that communication network to be able to tell the truth that that our Bolivarian revolution is being built to
14:13build to with the children and youth in universities schools of manuf and factories fields in which every day there
14:22there occurred the mar marbles of things of a popular participation of growth of construction of alternate alternatives and that the great media
14:34always try to try to silence because Venezuela could not be that bad example for the rest of the world's that the the root of sovereignty is the only
14:46path for the prosperity of the peoples so I want to conclude with a battle that we are just waging and that we need that we need that we all get a single direction which is
15:03which is to claim denounce the kidnapping of Venezuelan children that today happened in the United States 33 Venezuelan children boys and girls that have been separated from
15:20their families and so it is another example of the hate of the hate of all the plot against Venezuela and so it is another example of the hate of all the
15:32plot against Venezuela that which is not enough to attack our oil refineries our
15:39financial resources but they have attacked the people the migrant people of Venezuela
15:46hitting
15:47hitting
15:49the
15:50hitting
15:51childhood which is the
15:53the one that has the most violating all international laws and this has to be denounced
15:59president
16:00president
16:01nicolás maduro managed to rescue
16:02from
16:03a mega prison
16:04and a
16:05concentration camp
16:06and
16:07torture
16:08252 compatriots that arrived a few days ago to Caracas
16:14and so we have repatriated over 80,000
16:18Venezuelan migrants that have been deported from the United States and we have
16:23we have brought them back with our planes with sanctioned planes but we have brought them back to our homeland and we
16:32they have been reincorporated in the social life because they are needed here that workforce but now
16:39there have been a new practice to kidnap children boys and girls separated them so they separated them from their families and these
16:52occurs with the complicity of those great media corporations in the world so we ask you we ask your support your support to be able to
17:07denounce this reality that is applies in Venezuela but they are just wanting to apply it in all countries and they are just threatened different countries of the world partners of other countries from Latin America and Africa that they are being threatened to impose
17:22estimatization and persecution of their citizens if they do not comply with their
17:40orders so this has to be one of the main causes of the communicational fight so we ask you that this alliance being created today in this forum could address all these paramount issues of humanity because we are certain that we are able to win to try out as a
17:42So this has to be one of the main causes of the
17:48communicational fight.
17:51So we ask you, originally, that this alliance being
17:56created today in this forum could address all these
17:59paramount issues of humanity.
18:01Because we are certain that we are able to win, to
18:05triumph, as Palestine will be free, sovereign, and the
18:10peoples of the world, global peoples, will fight for our
18:16sovereignty and freedom.

18:27actions in a positive and organizational way of
18:33victories of the truth and the voices of the new world that
18:37today raise and Venezuela is at the lead to support you all.

18:49minister of Venezuela, Ivan Hill, as he was addressed in the
18:52opening, and welcoming all the participants that will take
18:54part in this forum of the Voices of the New World that
18:57centers on the communication aspects on the war, on the
19:01battle that is being fought in that field to counteract the
19:04hegemonic narrative that is imposed on the world by the
19:08Western powerful media, a forum that aims to discuss and to
19:12tackle all these issues and create methods and alliances to
19:15be able to face and challenge this hegemonic narrative and to
19:19be able to tell the truth of the sovereign peoples of the
19:22global south and beyond to the world and bring back that
19:25fight and bring that independence and sovereignty back to the
19:28people.
