00:00Let's look at the situation as things currently stand.
00:03There are estimated to be 15,000 American troops in the region.
00:09The USS Gerald Ford, a massive aircraft carrier,
00:13is there along with numerous other vessels that have been sent to the Caribbean.
00:17Tensions, lots of threats.
00:19How's that affecting the mood in Venezuela?
00:21What is the mood in Venezuela right now?
00:23Well, you know, if you walk, I'm in Caracas.
00:25You know, Caracas is the most populated city in Venezuela.
00:28And I work in a very crowded area.
00:30I'm not there right now, but this has been the case for at least almost four months.
00:35People are basically about their own business.
00:38People, you could say, they are unimpressed.
00:42Maybe some moments of anxiety regarding, for example, the flights.
00:48Yeah, the non-no-flight zone that they're trying to push in Venezuela.
00:54But basically, we've been here before.
00:58In general terms.
00:59I mean, of course, there's a big difference now with the buildup in the Caribbean.
01:02But this is not the first time we've been under very heavy pressure.
01:06I actually went to the beach yesterday, which is a half hour drive from Caracas.
01:11And there was a lot of normie families around.
01:14And I even got to see a commercial flight passing by.
01:16So this shows you that at least at this point, this pressure, this psychological shaping of
01:23the situation, it's not working as they think they want them to work.
01:26Because it is one of the most definitive elements here.
01:31It's precisely to try to find some sort of internal reaction, some social breakdown or something
01:36that ease up the regime change effort we're seeing.
