06:59We'll be right back, stay with us!
07:12Welcome back to From the South.
07:25In Venezuela, President Nicolás Maduro reaffirmed his government's commitment to sovereignty and
07:29regional integration during the closing ceremony of the Greater Caribbean Parliamentaries Meeting
07:34for Peace.
07:36During the event, the Venezuelan President emphasized that the United States wants to impose a permanent
07:41agenda of war and military threats and psychological warfare on the country.
07:46For this reason, he called on the Venezuelan people to have nerves of steel.
07:49Furthermore, the President affirmed that the Venezuelan people will continue to live in
07:53peace, with a victorious spirit and in the construction of their own democratic model,
07:58based on full liberties.
08:00On the other hand, the President invited the Caribbean Parliamentaries to accompany the
08:04Venezuelan people to the more than 5,000 popular assemblies that will be held on November
08:091st and 2nd, to prepare the projects that will be chosen during the 4th National Popular Consultation
08:15in Venezuela, which will take place on November 23rd.
08:27They always say that imperial supremacists are the good guys, that they come to save us and
08:33bring democracy.
08:35Brazil knows well how they brought democracy in 1954, Brazil knows well in 1964.
08:51The democracy they brought to Brazil for 20 years.
08:55Chile knows it well from Salvador Allende in 1973.
08:59The Dominican Republic knows it well from 1966.
09:03And the great Juan Bosch, Latin American knows it well.
09:23Grenada doesn't know it well.
09:24They brought quite a lot of democracy, Haiti knows this well, martyr.
09:29Our martyr, Haiti, dismembered by more than 10 U.S. military interventions over the course
09:35of 100 years.
09:37The Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro emphasized that the destroyed narrative of the United States
09:46about Venezuela is full of lies and false claims intended to deceive the sovereign peoples
09:51of the Caribbean.
09:58Then there's that movie.
10:00Today, the world doesn't accept those movies from the worst of Hollywood.
10:06After all, Hollywood also has great actors and actresses, great producers, directors, and
10:14great movies.
10:15It's not the time to talk about cinema, but we could have a long conversation about Hollywood.
10:21Hollywood's contribution to universal culture, acting, and true cinema.
10:37But they always want to impose a narrative.
10:40Today, they've chosen an absolutely extravagant narrative.
10:45I always try to discuss with my colleagues which concepts and words best describe each moment
10:53we have experienced.
10:55I can say that the narrative chosen by the U.S. government against Venezuela, a dignified, peaceful
11:13and Bolivarian country, is extravagant, false and defamatory of the dignity of a decent, hard-working
11:21people who have achieved great things for their country, despite sanctions, and all the pressure
11:28that we have all come to know over the years.
11:36In other news, on Friday, the Venezuelan government requested the Supreme Court of Justice to revoke
11:41the citizenship of our right-wing leader, John Goicochea.
11:45In a statement, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Justice and Peace said that the request response
11:50to Goicochea's call for a foreign military invasion against Venezuela and the occupation
11:54of his territory.
11:56The Foreign Ministry and the Administrative Service for Identification, Migration and Foreigners
12:01will proceed to eliminate all documentation that identifies the far-right activists as Venezuelan.
12:06Goicochea is accused of persecuting and exterminating officials of the various security forces of
12:11the National Armed Forces, as well as of carrying out mass murders of Venezuelans.
12:23Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump denied accusations of an imminent attack on Venezuela,
12:29which had been published by some U.S. media outlets.
12:32After some U.S. outlets reported on alleged military preparations against the Latin American
12:37state, Trump stated that he was not considering attacks on Venezuela.
12:43The statements to the press were made on board the Air Force One, following the question which
12:47sought to confirm the rumors.
12:49In addition, the White House spokesperson, Anna Kelly, stated to the press that the unnamed
12:54sources didn't know what they were talking about, discrediting the outlets which had published
12:59the alleged presidential decision.
13:01For his part, Venezuela insists that the consens threats are part of the psychological war wage
13:06on the country as a form of pressure.
13:08Regarding these publications, the Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio,
13:13referred to them, saying, your sources, who claim to have knowledge of the situation,
13:15deceive you to rise a full story.
13:17Regarding these publications, the Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio, referred

16:03Mexico City, the traditional semantilco flower on the Day of the Dead in Mexico, covering altars and cemeteries, guiding the souls of the dead to their living family members during the first two days of November.
16:18The agricultural sector continues to work to preserve native seeds, which together with specialized scientists, seeks to generate genetic diversity in the hopes that these hardier streams cap how farmers rebuild crops and protect Mexico's iconic bloom from the growing impacts of climate change.
