00:43Hello and welcome to From the South from the headquarters of Tresur English in Havana, Cuba.

00:48My name is Pablo Micheliche. We begin with the news.

00:51In Colombia, President Gustavo Petro denounced the US military aggression in the Caribbean

00:56that has already claimed the life of multiple fishermen during the third social summit of Latin America and Caribbean peoples.

01:04During his speech, the Colombian president asserted that organizations such as NATO were created to defend the interests of the elites in the North.

01:12He also denounced attempts to sabotage the current Salak EU summit by imperialist elites who try to isolate the country

01:21and prevent the participation of various nations.

01:25The event, which brings together representatives of the countries of the region and leaders of different social organizations,

01:31seeks to contribute to the construction of peace, democracy and regional union.

01:36What you are clearly is not drug traffickers. The drug traffickers have gone through your policies to the offices in Miami to speak with the senators of Sir Rubio to ask that they send bombs here,

01:57to ask that here they also take out the popular vote to try to humiliate us.

02:06And Colombia does not let herself be humiliated because this is also the homeland of Bolívar the Libertarian.

02:18In Nicaragua, co-president Daniel Ortega affirmed that the peoples of the world face a weakened US imperialism as a common enemy.

02:30The commander's statements were made during the ceremony held to promote general commissioners of the Ministry of the Interior,

02:37as well as to pay tribute to the 49th anniversary of the passing of Commander Carlos Fonseca Amador.

02:43Also, the heads of the Nicaraguan executives reaffirmed their commitment to continue building a better revolution in the world,

02:52aimed at giving dignity to the peoples despite the constant threats from the North American government.

02:58On the other hand, the leader reflected the position of several allied governments in Latin America that see cooperation with China as an alternative for development

03:08and a way to challenge Washington's historical interference in the region.

03:18We are witnessing a period in which it has become an enemy, no matter how much military power it had.

03:29has disappeared, has been diminished, has been discredited, has been weakened.

03:42And in the meantime, other forces have been growing, and among these forces, the People's Republic of China stands out.

03:57The Nicaraguan commerce prepares for a dynamic holiday season as the country embraces also the Christmas atmosphere.

04:20The Nicaraguan commerce prepares for the year-end season, one of the busiest for sales, reflecting the constant dynamism of the national economy.

04:35People have been coming to the market to buy, as I told you, since September, so that indicates to us that the economy is doing well, and I think it's been improving and will continue to improve.

04:49At the end of October, people already start buying.

04:56Right now, what they're looking for the most are decorations for the schools, but after this, people start looking for lights, garlands, and curtains, which they use for the greater a celebration.

05:04Yes, in fact, we Nicaraguans are already prepared to come and buy and to anticipate our businesses and have a huge variety for all our customers.

05:21We have sold a lot. Customers come from Honduras, Costa Rica, and Guatemala.

05:37According to the Central Bank of Nicaragua, the economy is expected to maintain steady growth between 3% and 4% throughout 2025.

05:47The commercial sector project sales of $158 million in the last quarter of the year, a figure that reflects confidence in the strengthening of economic activity, driven by the efforts of Nicaraguan entrepreneurs and merchants.

06:00We have a projection of around $116 million to $129,000. Since last year, we were at about $105 million for $117,000. And I believe that with all the logistics capacity we have, with the merchants being prepared, and the models that our good government has been providing, that's why we're seeing this boost today. We've also started selling online.

06:25We've also started selling online.

06:40Alongside the economic dynamism in Nicaragua, the country has been illuminated with a Christmas atmosphere. Families are enjoying the decorations and spaces filled with love, unity, and hope.

06:52Yes, there are quite a few new things, in fact, and everything is really beautiful. This transmits peace, joy. Yes, peace, joy, and well, those who enjoy it, are the ones who matter.

07:07They are the ones who enjoy it.

07:10Happy Christmas, Christmas. You can already feel the Christmas spirit. It feels good, prosperous, and blessed. The peace that only our good government has given us.

07:20In this season of high economic dynamism and Christmas spirit, Nicaraguans reaffirm their desire to continue living in joy and peace, strengthening the bonds of unity, and hope that characterize families across the country.

07:37The peace, Kenya Doña, Kenya Doña, TELESUR, Nicaragua.

13:50Social and trade union organizations are promoting this rally in support of the Sarawai people, who were once imprisoned and displaced from their territory.

14:00It is also an opportunity to urge the Spanish government to promote initiatives that will achieve a just resolution for this community.

15:03The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights reported approximately 97 cases of kidnapping and forced disappearance since the beginning of 2025.

15:13They warned that the number could be higher due to the lack of access to several regions of the country and the fear of families to report.

15:21In this sense, the figure is added to the more than 100,000 people who disappeared during the war and whose cases remain unsolved.

15:29The Israeli regime hunted over 15 Palestinian bodies through the International

15:48The Israeli regime handed over 15 Palestinian bodies through the International Committee

15:59of the Red Cross.

16:00Their bodies arrived at the Nasser Mettica complex in Kanjunik, south of the Gaza Strip,

16:05adding to the other 300 that were previously deliberate.

16:09Health authorities emphasized that only 89 bodies have been identified so far.

16:14They also pointed out that most of the bodies show signs of torture, burns and executions.

16:20Some are unrecognizable due to the brutality of the torture they suffered.

16:32Palestine warns that one in five thousand children have now received essential vaccines.

16:36In the absence of vaccines for children, the United Nations has launched a vaccination

16:40campaign that aims to reach 44,000 children.

16:44In turn, 24 health centers and medical points will be established throughout the Gaza Strip

16:49to strengthen medical care for children under 18.

16:52The vaccination campaign comes after two years of Israeli aggression, which led to the near-total

16:57collapse of the healthcare system and interrupted immunization programs, depriving hundreds of

17:03thousands of children of their essential vaccines.

17:11We change topic.

17:12The 12th China-Central Asia Cooperation Forum was held in Urumqi.

17:17In northwest China, where China and the five member countries, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan,

17:23Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, met to strengthen economic, educational and cultural cooperation in the region.

17:29Our correspondent Bruno Flatsky is in Urumqi to bring you more details.

17:35The 12th China-Central Asia Cooperation Forum was held in the capital of Xinjiang, a strategic

17:43region bordering the five member countries of this organization.

17:47Representatives from governments, business and universities met to strengthen regional cooperation.

17:55The Forum is very significant in terms of the relations between the China and the Central

18:03Asian countries, as I am also from Turkmenistan, as a Central Asian country.

18:08This is a great platform to build momentum, to build momentum to enhance this regional cooperation

18:17in the field, which also aligns with our priorities, our Karak Institute priorities.

18:25And I hope this, the platform, the China-Central Asia platform will give, incentivize more

18:34dynamic to the relations of the countries.

18:40Kazakhstan is an example of regional cooperation.

18:44Together with China, it has developed joint projects in economics, education and culture,

18:50demonstrating the breadth collaboration among Central Asia countries.

18:57All countries in this region are very close partners, especially Kazakhstan and Central Asia.

19:05Kazakhstan and China share a very long border.

19:09And we've been working together in the many areas.

19:14Mostly I would say this relationship and cooperation was economic in the areas of economic development.

19:24But now also I can see more and more projects that are in the areas of, for example, research, education,

19:34exchange, but also, you know, culture and other areas.

19:40Xinjiang has become a central hub for cooperation, with over one billion in joint investments and

19:48more than 50 industrial and technological parks, facilitating cultural and economic exchange with neighboring countries.

19:58In recent years, Xinjiang is more opening to the world, to the whole world.

20:04And we welcome all the foreign friends, foreign organizations, foreign, all the people of all works of life to come to Xinjiang and to see Xinjiang in personal.

20:18And I think the hosting of this forum plays a very important role in inviting all of the people from Central Asia countries for them to see opportunities to cooperate in businesses, in trading, in cultural exchanges.

20:37The forum also includes sub-forums on trade, education, poverty reduction, and women's issues, reaffirming the intention to build closer and more multifaceted cooperation between China and Central Asia countries.
