Venezuela'nın Ulusal Meclis Başkanı Juan Guaido, ülkede düzenlenen hükümet karşıtı gösterilerde kendisini “geçici devlet başkanı” ilan ettiğinde arkasına Amerika ve Avrupa'yı almıştı. Ocak 2019'du. Halka kendisini destekleme çağrısı yapan Guaido'nun sözleri şöyleydi: “Biliyoruz ki bu tek kişilik bir iş değil ve sonuçları olacak. Yorulacak mıyız? Hayır. Demokrasiye, özgürlüğe ulaşana kadar direneceğiz.”
En esta segunda entrega de esta saga de la trama de corrupción de el interinato de Juan Guaido y de la agencia USAID. Ya hay nombres de beneficiados que se les dio dinero por este organismo y todo empieza a tener sentido finalmente. Aqui mi análisis.

Cent vingt-sept prisonniers ont été remis en liberté à Cuba, dont le dissident José Daniel Ferrer, dans le cadre de l'accord négocié avec l'église catholique après le retrait de l'île de la liste noire américaine des pays soutenant le terrorisme. L'opposant historique âgé de 54 ans a été libéré jeudi matin (16 janvier 2025) de la prison de Mar Verde, à Santiago de Cuba. Dans une interview à RFI, José Daniel Ferrer dit son soulagement mais estime que sa libération n'en est pas vraiment une. « Je suis en liberté conditionnelle et je ne l'accepte pas pour une raison très simple : je n'ai commis aucun des délits qu'ils ont inventés. »L'opposant cubain a été emprisonné le 11 juillet 2021, date à laquelle il avait tenté de se joindre aux manifestations antigouvernementales qui secouaient le pays, les plus importantes depuis l'avènement de la révolution castriste en 1959.Un mois plus tard, un tribunal avait révoqué sa liberté conditionnelle et l'avait renvoyé derrière les barreaux pour terminer de purger une peine de quatre ans et demi de prison à laquelle il avait été condamné en 2020, accusé d'avoir frappé un homme, ce qu'il nie.«Ils m'ont dit que j'allais sortir de prison quoi qu'il arrive, et que si je ne me conformais pas aux termes de ma libération, que si je ne m'appliquais pas à mener une vie qui rentre dans les normes de la légalité socialiste, ils allaient de nouveau m'enfermer » confie-t-il, « je dois obéir une série de règles, comme me rendre tous les mois dans un tribunal pour déposer ma signature - ce que je ne ferai jamais, ou me présenter au tribunal pour qu'ils me confient tout travail qu'ils jugent approprié. Je refuse de travailler pour l'Etat pour une raison simple : mon temps, mon espace, je veux uniquement les consacrer à la lutte non-violente pour la démocratisation de mon pays. »Le régime cubain s'est engagé à relâcher 553 prisonniers. À Los Angeles, le retour difficile des habitants dans leurs quartiers dévastés par les flammes À Los Angeles, les incendies commencent peu à peu à être maîtrisés. Mais pour les sinistrés, la reprise d'une vie normale est un véritable défi. Notre envoyé spécial à Los Angeles a rencontré les habitants du quartier d'Altadena, qui a perdu un tiers de ses habitations, ravagées par le Eaton Fire. Le quartier est situé sur les hauteurs de la ville. Contrairement à Pacific Palisades, Altadena est un quartier modeste, avec une forte population d'immigrants, pour la plupart locataires. « Quand les incendies ont débuté dans les montagnes, je n'aurai jamais pensé qu'ils descendraient aussi vite », témoigne Selma, une habitante d'Altadena, « Nous avons tout perdu, mon quartier ressemble à un endroit où une bombe aurait explosé. C'est une tragédie ! Des gens sont morts et on ne sait même pas encore combien. Mon appartement c'était mon premier chez moi depuis 10 ans après mon divorce… et mon assurance habitation a annulé mon contrat, il y a un an et demi.». Comme beaucoup d'habitants, Selma a trouvé refuge dans des centres d'hébergement provisoire. Le sien est tenu par la Croix Rouge et accueille actuellement plus de 400 personnes. « Altadena, c'est une communauté très vulnérable », explique Diana Ramirez, la chargée de communication du centre d'accueil, « Il y a des Latinos, des Afro-Américains, des Asiatiques, des personnes âgées... beaucoup ont besoin de soins médicaux. Ici tout le monde est le bienvenu, quels que soient sa nationalité ou son statut, légal ou non. Car toutes les personnes qui sont ici, n'ont aucun autre endroit où aller. » Venezuela : la question migratoire au cœur de la relation avec Donald TrumpL'invité de ce vendredi est Thomas Posado, maître de conférences en Civilisation latino-américaine contemporaine à l'Université de Rouen Normandie. Il répond à RFI sur la situation au Venezuela après l'investiture contestée du président Nicolas Maduro et à quelques jours de l'investiture de Donald Trump aux États-Unis. RFI : Pensez-vous que l'administration Trump puisse appuyer Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, le candidat de l'opposition qui revendique la victoire à l'élection présidentielle vénézuélienne, de la même manière qu'elle l'avait fait avec Juan Guaido qui s'était auto-proclamé « président intérimaire » après la réélection contestée de Nicolas Maduro en 2018 ? Thomas Posado : Le cas du président Guaido a été un échec reconnu par l'ensemble des chancelleries occidentales, y compris par l'opposition vénézuélienne elle-même. Ce qu'on pressent, d'après les premières déclarations de Donald Trump, c'est la mise en avant de la question migratoire pour menacer de sanctions et pour faire un chantage concernant la déportation massive de migrants vénézuéliens présents sur le sol étatsunien. Il y aurait en échange le maintien de l'allègement des sanctions qu'a établi Joe Biden mais on reste pour l'instant sur des suppositions. Il faut dire que les Vénézuéliens sont devenus la première nationalité aux frontières des États-Unis et sachant le poids de de la question migratoire dans l'agenda de Donald Trump, il est possible qu'il s'en serve pour faire un chantage comme il va le faire à l'égard du Mexique et de l'Amérique centrale.RFI : La crise qui touche le Venezuela à cause notamment des sanctions américaines, a poussé ces dernières années près de 8 000 000 de personnes à fuir. C'est 1/4 de la population vénézuélienne et nombre d'entre eux sont installés aux États Unis. Aujourd'hui, Caracas refuse d'accueillir les migrants qui sont expulsés par l'administration américaine. Est-ce que cette position des autorités pourrait changer ? Thomas Posado : Les premières déclarations de Donald Trump laissent présager un chantage autour des migrants mais rien n'est sûr. Cela pourrait laisser entendre un règlement Trump/Maduro aux dépens des migrants vénézuéliens. Mais est-ce que Nicolas Maduro acceptera cela ? Au prix d'un bras de fer ? Au prix de négociations sans doute assez tendues ? La question est posée. C'est aussi possible que Donald Trump veuille maintenir la politique très offensive qu'il avait pendant son premier mandat et qu'il maintienne des sanctions quelle que soit l'issue des négociations sur la question migratoire.RFI : Donald Trump semble poussé par un certain nombre de chefs d'entreprise dont le mot d'ordre avait été repris, il y a quelques semaines, par le Wall Street Journal : « Plus de pétrole, moins de migrants » ?Thomas Posado : C'est en effet plutôt la tendance qui semble advenir. Depuis l'invasion de l'Ukraine par la Russie, des négociations ont été mises en œuvre par l'administration Biden avec le gouvernement de Nicolas Maduro. Et désormais, le Venezuela exporte entre 200 000 et 300 000 barils de pétrole chaque jour aux États-Unis. Est-ce que ce commerce va se poursuivre ? C'est tout l'enjeu mais les États-Unis ne sont pas dépendants du pétrole vénézuélien même si cela a permis de peser à la baisse sur le prix du baril dont on sait qu'il a des conséquences sur l'économie américaine.RFI : Le président Nicolas Maduro a parlé de nouveau départ avec Donald Trump, est-ce que des contacts ont déjà été pris entre les deux présidences ? Thomas Posado : Je pense qu'il y a un effet un peu performatif dans les paroles de Nicolas Maduro. Dès l'élection de Donald Trump, il a essayé de le saluer et il essaie de d'amadouer Donald Trump, comme le font beaucoup de chefs d'État, avec un succès relativement limité à l'heure actuelle. Tout ce qu'on peut pressentir aujourd'hui, c'est que les personnes nominées dans l'administration Trump sont des personnes extrêmement hostiles au gouvernement de Nicolas Maduro et ils sont plutôt partisans de la ligne dure. Mais on sait que le fonctionnement de Donald Trump est assez imprévisible et qu'il peut prendre le contre-pied de toutes les personnes qu'il a nommées dans son administration pour décider lui-même d'une politique plus conciliante. C'est possible. Et d'autant plus qu'il n'a pas besoin de l'électorat anti-Maduro de Floride pour une possible réélection puisqu'il ne peut plus être réélu.RFI : Est-ce que cela peut s'inscrire dans une politique internationale plus large, avec notamment comme objectif de ne pas laisser le champ libre à la Chine et à la Russie, qui sont des soutiens de Nicolas Maduro ? Est-ce que les dernières années d'absence américaine ont profité à Moscou et à Pékin ? Thomas Posado : Jusqu'en 2018, avant les sanctions américaines les plus dures à l'encontre du Venezuela. Les États-Unis étaient le premier fournisseur, le premier client du Venezuela. Ces sanctions ont brutalement offert le Venezuela à la Chine et à la Russie. La Chine est désormais le premier client du pétrole vénézuélien. Si Donald Trump considère que sa priorité est l'affrontement avec la Russie et la Chine, il pourrait reconsidérer sa position. Donald Trump ne pourra sans doute pas maintenir des pressions aussi maximales à l'égard d'autant de pays qu'il a pu menacer avant son investiture. Mexique : la menace des taxes douanières Le Mexique se prépare également au retour de Donald Trump. Les relations entre les deux pays sont telles que leurs dirigeants n'ont pas vraiment d'autre choix que de s'entendre et de collaborer sur certains dossiers. Cela n'a pas empêché le président élu américain de menacer le Mexique comme le Canada de droits de douanes considérables : 25%, du jamais vu.Si 25% de frais de douanes étaient instaurés, cela aurait un impact énorme sur les industries automobiles et électroniques au Mexique, sans parler des fruits et des produits alimentaires, rapporte Gwendolina Duval, correspondante à Mexico de RFI.Mais Marcelo Ebrard, le ministre mexicain de l'Économie, se veut rassurant et met en avant l'interdépendance de chacun, premier partenaire commercial de l'autre : « On va avoir besoin l'un de l'autre et nous allons travailler ensemble. On a déjà vécu des situations avec des frais de douanes, des révisions de l'accord de libre-échange… On est liés comme dans un mariage. » Le départ d'un géant du cinéma David Lynch, réalisateur de la série «Twin Peaks», mais aussi de films aussi célèbres qu'étranges et nébuleux comme «Mulholland Drive», «Blue Velvet», «Elephant Man» ou «Dune». Il avait remporté la Palme d'or à Cannes en 1990 pour le film «Sailor et Lula».« Il était si visionnaire, si audacieux », écrit le magazine Variety « Qu'il était devenu difficile d'imaginer le monde sans lui. »Le journal vante « l'avant-gardisme de son cerveau que David Lynch avait laissé s'épanouir dans une esthétique ayant retourné les tripes d'Hollywood. »« À l'inverse de ses films », ajoute le Los Angeles Times,« Le charme désarmant de David Lynch est une œuvre d'art à part entière. »
Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese
On July 28, Venezuelans re-elected President Nicolas Maduro for another term despite US interference in their electoral process and subsequent attempts to delegitimize the process. The United States government has refused to recognize President Maduro, instead claiming without evidence that an opposition candidate, Edmundo Gonzalez, was the winner, a tactic reminiscent of the Juan Guaido charade. Clearing the FOG speaks with Venezuelan political analyst Maria Paez Victor about the Bolivarian Revolution, the most recent US-backed coup attempt, media attacks, and how Venezuelans have prepared to protect their deep democracy and social gains.

Avec : Avec Fabrice Andreani, professeur de Sciences Politiques à l'université de Lyon David Djaïz, entrepreneur, essayiste et ancien secrétaire général du Conseil National de la Refondation. Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut français de géopolitique Richard Werly, correspondant à Paris du quotidien helvétique Blick. LE VÉNÉZUÉLA La situation du Venezuela est aujourd'hui celle d'un pays, qui possède les plus grandes réserves de pétrole connues du monde, et qui connait une pénurie d'essence depuis plusieurs mois. D'un pays régulièrement plongé dans le noir par les coupures de courant qui touchent les ménages, les magasins mais aussi les hôpitaux en pleine crise du coronavirus. D'un pays où la violence, déjà très présente à Caracas avant la crise, a explosé (les statistiques criminelles établissent le Venezuela comme le pays le plus violent du monde, d'un pays où le taux de pauvreté, qui était passé de 55,1% à 27,5% entre 2003 et 2007 est aujourd'hui estimé à 80%, d'un pays dont le PIB a été divisé par deux entre 2013 et 2018 tandis que l'inflation atteignait 130.000% en 2018 selon la Banque centrale du Venezuela. Cette crise économique et sociale est également politique : deux légitimités opposées coexistent. Nicolas Maduro, élu président en 2013 avec 50,6 % des voix, est le successeur désigné d'Hugo Chavez qui dirigeait le pays depuis 1999 et dont les partisans vantent la forte augmentation des dépenses sociales financées par le cours élevé du baril aujourd'hui au plus bas. Nicolas Maduro dispose du soutien de l'armée et le chavisme occupe une place importante dans le sous-continent américain à travers un réseau d'alliances et des réseaux d'influence. Le parti chaviste a cependant perdu les élections législatives de 2015, permettant à l'opposition parlementaire de centre-droit d'ouvrir un procès en destitution contre Maduro. Pour contourner le Parlement, celui-ci a fait élire en 2017 une Constituante que l'opposition a boycotté. Depuis, le Parlement a désigné Juan Guaido président de la République par intérim. Cette décision a été immédiatement reconnue par les États-Unis, le Canada et le Brésil puis l'Union Européenne. De son côté, Maduro peut compter sur le soutien de certains pays tels que la Russie, l'Iran et la Chine. La pandémie est donc apparue dans un pays où le blocage s'est installé, tandis qu'au fil des mois Juan Guaido et ses proches font l'objet de nombreuses critiques de la part de la population vénézuélienne.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

After innumerable US-backed coup attempts in Venezuela - including the almost comical Juan Guaido fiasco - one might think Americans would become skeptical when the old "stolen election" and "regime change" narrative is rolled out again. But as inn Hollywood, when you have a successful story you keep rolling out sequels. Does it matter who runs Venezuela? Only if you are in oil or minerals...or the regime change business. Also today: Pentagon accountants find another two billion dollars for Ukraine...and US debt reaches $35 trillion.

Notiziario Mondo di Radio Bullets, a cura di Ambra Visentin
On this edition of Parallax Views, Sam Fraser, researcher and senior communications associate at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, joins us to discuss the Biden administration's nomination of Elliott Abrams to the bipartisan United States Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy. A few years ago Abrams, who was at that time appointed as the U.S. special envoy to Venezuela by the Trump administration, was in the news when Rep. Ilhan Omar confronted Abrams on his involvement in the Iran-Contra scandal and human rights abuses in Latin America. Why is a figure like Abrams, who was convicted for his involvement with Iran/Contra, still involved in international relations and U.S. foreign policy? And how do figures like Abrams sticking around effect U.S. relations with Latin American countries? These are just a few of the questions posed in this conversation and Sam's recent article "Biden's disgraceful nomination of Elliott Abrams". This conversation will also delve into the history of the Ronald Reagan Presidency and U.S. foreign policy in that era. We'll discuss Iran-Contra for those who need a refresher, atrocities in El Salvador and Guatemala, dirty wars, death squads in Latin America in the 1980s, the Cold War, Abrams' praise for a dictator that's been convicted of genocide, how left-wing movements gain traction in Latin America and how they are suppressed by the right-wing, the military dictatorship of Gen. Fulgencio Batista and the rise of Fidel Castro, Juan Guaido and the failed coup against Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela, Brazilian President Lula Da Silva and Operation Car Wash, Hugo Chavez and failed coup attempts against him in the George W. Bush years, Israel/Palestine, the 2007 Gaza War between Fatah and Hamas, the history of the neocons (neoconservatives) and their role in U.S. foreign policy (also: are they still relevant?), lack of accountability in the U.S. foreign policy blob/establishment, Elliot Abrams and the Council on Foreign Relations, the democracy vs. autocracy debate and its contradictions, American exceptionalism and U.S. hegemony, and more!

How did Juan Guaido, Venezuela's self-declared interim leader, end up alone in the Miami airport, carrying only a backpack, seeking protection from persecution in his home country? Back in 2019, Guaido, who was then the head of Venezuela's National Assembly, challenged the Venezuelan presidency and declared himself the rightful leader after the widely disputed re-election of President Nicolás Maduro. More than 50 countries — including the U.S. and Canada — chose to back Guaido over Maduro, precipitating a years-long presidential crisis. But since his declaration, Guaido's popularity has waned and his international backers have dropped off. In January, opposition lawmakers voted to strip him of his leadership position. More recently, he says the rhetoric and threats against him have increased — prompting his flight to Miami. This week on Nothing is Foreign, we look back at what happened during Guaido's time as the U.S backed, self-declared interim leader of Venezuela, why his movement couldn't find sustained support and what it might tell us about Venezuela's political future.

Not that long ago, Venezuela was among the freest and richest nations in Latin America. But in 1999, Hugo Chavez became president and introduced his brand of socialism known as Chavism. Venezuela's liberties and prosperity were quickly eroded. Chavez died in 2013. Under his successor, Nicolas Maduro, who had been his right-hand man, Venezuela has continued to decline. In 2019, the U.S. supported an alternative “interim government” headed by Juan Guaido. At one point, Guaido was recognized by dozens of countries as Venezuela's legitimate president. But last month, members of Venezuela's opposition parties voted to remove Guaido and dissolve the interim government. Elliott Abrams served on the staffs of Senators Scoop Jackson and Daniel Patrick Moynihan. He was an assistant secretary of state in the Reagan administration, senior director of the National Security Council for democracy, human rights, and international organizations in the George W. Bush administration, and – in the Trump administration – served as Special Representative for Venezuela. He's currently senior fellow for Middle Eastern studies at the Council on Foreign Relations and Chairman of the Vandenberg Coalition. He joins host Cliff May to discuss Venezuela.
The U.S. military has over 270,000 troops currently deployed across the globe, including in 17 countries that the public up until now didn't even know about. Our guest this week, Ben Friedman, a senior analyst with Defense Priorities, takes on the Washington shibboleth that we couldn't possibly start bringing any of those troops home — particularly the thousands in the Middle East and Europe — because they would leave "power vacuums." He argues that even if there is a "security gap" left in our place, there are regional powers that can step into the breach. In the first segment, Daniel and Kelley talk about the demise of 'interim president' Juan Guaido of Venezuela.More from Ben Friedman:When courting quasi-allies like Ukraine becomes a moral hazard, with Natalie Armbruster, Responsible Statecraft, 12/28/22Don't fear vacuum: it's safe to go home, Defense Priorities, 12/7/22The case for getting rid of the National Security Strategy, with Justin Logan, War on the Rocks, 11/4/22 This is a public episode.

This week, Quinta and Scott co-hosted sans Alan, but were joined by the co-hosts of the Carnegie Council's The Doorstep Podcast, Nikolas Gvosdev and Tatiania Serafin! They talked through the week's big national security news, including:“Paper Rocks Censors.” China has erupted in protests against Xi Jinping's draconian zero-COVID policies, with thousands of Chinese citizens holding up a blank white sheet of paper as a sign of their discontent. Will these “white paper” protests make a difference in China? How should the United States respond?“A Cheney Might Shoot You in the Face, But They'd Never Stab You in the Back.” Last week, the Washington Post reported that more than a dozen current and past staffers on the Jan. 6 committee are angry with co-chair Liz Cheney for decisions to focus the committee's final report on conduct related to former President Trump. Is there merit to these complaints or do they seem overblown?“Much Guaido About Nothing?” The Biden administration is easing sanctions on Venezuela, as talks loom between the incumbent Maduro regime and recognized government-in-exile of opposition leader Juan Guaido. Does this signal a major shift in U.S. policy towards Venezuela? Or are those condemning the move overblowing the situation?As for object lessons, Quinta engaged in a bit of self-promotion over her recent Atlantic piece on the forthcoming Supreme Court case Moore v. Harper. Scott indulged in a Werner Herzog impression to recommend a new documentary directed by his son, "Last Exit: Space." Nikolas urged listeners to check out a recent interview with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel on her legacy and the current state of affairs in Europe. And Tatiana poured one out for free speech and passed along a recent article in New York Magazine, "Do You Have a Right Not to be Lied To?" Hosted on Acast.

En el episodio 179 de este tres en uno informativo, tres grandes reportajes destacaron esta semana por la alianza entre los portales RunRun.es, TalCual y El Pitazo.Ruta de San Andrés: el misterioso viaje en lancha para evitar el Darién, es el reportaje que destacó por El Pitazo esta semana. Ante los peligros que significa cruzar la selva entre Colombia y Panamá, los migrantes que se dirigen hacia los Estados Unidos han optado por subir a embarcaciones desde San Andrés en Colombia con destino al puerto de Bluefields en Nicaragua. Aunque es más costoso, algunos caminantes prefieren pagar una lancha y continuar la ruta hacia Honduras, Guatemala y México en su objetivo por conquistar el llamado sueño americano. Por Runrun.es resaltó la investigación ¿Que conecta al avión de Venezuela retenido en Argentina, un cartel uruguayo y el asesinato del fiscal paraguayo? Autoridades paraguayas confirmaron que existen nexos entre la tripulación del avión venezolano detenido en Argentina el pasado 6 de junio y el asesinato del fiscal paraguayo Marcelo Pecci, el 10 de mayo en Cartagena. René Fernández, ministro anticorrupción de Paraguay, dijo que mientras el avión hizo escala en ese país, miembros de su tripulación se reunieron con Federico Santoro Vasallo, señalado de ser un operador del Primer Cartel Uruguayo, organizacion criminal liderada por Sebastian Marset Cabrera, uno de los acusados de ser el autor intelectual del asesinato del fiscal Pecci.Por TalCual destacó Restablecer las relaciones con Colombia no es tan sencillo como Maduro espera. Luego del reconocimiento de parte del gobierno neogranadino de Juan Guaido como presidente interino, las relaciones entre Colombia y Venezuela se rompieron en 2019. Con la llegada del izquierdista Gustavo Petro al poder, la administración de Maduro pretende normalizar las relaciones, un objetivo que no será de la noche a la mañana según la opinión de algunos expertos.
En el episodio 177 de este tres en uno informativo, tres grandes reportajes destacaron esta semana por la alianza entre los portales RunRun.es, TalCual y El Pitazo.Magistrados del TSJ en el exilio: de valientes a migrantes en el olvido es el reportaje que destacó por El Pitazo esta semana. El mismo expone que Cinco años han pasado desde que fueron juramentados en la Plaza Alfredo Sadel de Caracas, los magistrados del Tribunal Supremo de Justicia del gobierno interino de Juan Guaido. Por TalCual resaltó la investigación Sin poder real y con su credibilidad mermada, el interinato se desvanece en cámara lenta. En este primer semestre de 2022, el gobierno interino que encabeza Juan Guaido desde enero de 2019 parece haber perdido fuerza. Con apariciones esporádicas y recorridos por el interior del país que han sido más noticia por las situaciones de violencia, Guaido parece librar una batalla contra la desesperanza y el escepticismo.Por Runrun.es destacó 15 vídeos y audios de la travesía de los venezolanos por el infierno del Darien. En registro audiovisual han quedado registradas la cientos de historias de venezolanos que han decidido arriesgar sus vidas cruzando la peligrosa selva en su objetivo de llegar a Estados Unidos.
This week on Sinica, we offer listeners a sneak preview of one of the new shows coming soon to the Sinica Network: Café & Seda, or Coffee and Silk. While this episode is in English, the podcast will be mostly in Spanish — our first non-English show. The host is Parsifal D'Sola, who is Executive Director of the ABF China Latin America Research Center and a nonresident senior fellow in the Atlantic Council's Global China Hub. Parsifal is a native of Venezuela, and his focus is on Sino-Latin American relations. Between 2019 and 2020, he acted as Chinese Foreign Policy Advisor to the Minister of Foreign Affairs under the Interim Government of Venezuela of Juan Guaido.In this episode, Parsifal talks with Dr. Evan Ellis. Evan is a research professor of Latin American Studies at the Strategic Studies Institute of the U.S. Army War College. His work focuses on the region's relationships with China and other non-Western Hemisphere actors as well as transnational organized crime and populism in the region. He previously served on the Secretary of State's policy planning staff with responsibility for Latin America and the Caribbean as well as international narcotics and law enforcement issues. Evan has also been awarded the Order of Military Merit José María Córdova by the Colombian government for his scholarship on security issues in the region.Latin America has been the world's most affected region due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Poverty levels have risen considerably, and economic contraction is several points higher than the global average. How will this affect Sino- Latin American relations? Furthermore, while the United States increasingly loses influence across the region, Chinese foreign policy has become more sophisticated and localized, filling many of the spaces traditionally filled by the United States and other Western actors. Evan helps us answer these questions and offers recommendations both for the United States in dealing with China's growing role in the region, as well as advice for Latin American countries in managing the challenges that greater engagement with China will bring about.

Clearing the FOG with co-hosts Margaret Flowers and Kevin Zeese
Unlike Ukraine, Venezuela successfully resisted the violent US-led coup attempt in 2014, and in other years, by right wing forces and the hybrid war being waged against it. Venezuela is recovering despite the ongoing economic blockade. Now, because the United States needs oil, the Biden administration has started talking to the Maduro government and there is hope that relations between the two countries may resume. For an update on this situation, as well as the future of Venezuela's US-based oil company CITGO, the status of Venezuela's gold in the Bank of London, the demise of Juan Guaido, and the kidnapping of Venezuelan diplomat, Alex Saab, Clearing the FOG speaks with Leonardo Flores, the Latin American campaign director for CODEPINK.

Episode 43 of STARK REALITY with Host James Dier aka $mall ¢hange rolls out the red carpet to Venezuela for the exclusive in-depth Stark Reality interview with Caracas-based writer and editor RICARDO VAZ, recorded 2/23/22. Ricardo Vaz works for independent media outlet Venezuelanalysis and he is also a member of Venezuelan collectives Tatuy Tv and Utopix. Ricardo grew up in Mozambique before going on to study theoretical physics in Portugal and the United States. But his communist ideals and Hugo Chávez eventually saw him move to Venezuela in 2019.

On this episode, Garrison takes a deep dive into the view from Venezuela with the deeply knowledgable Ivan Briscoe, Program Director for Latin America and the Caribbean from the International Crisis Group. The two discuss the current state of Venezuelan affairs, tracing the counters of the rivalry between Nicolas Maduro and Juan Guaido with their respective claims to the Presidency. Is Juan Guaido losing his sense of legitimacy in the eyes of the opposition forces and the general public? They discuss the failed effort by the Trump administration to topple the Maduro regime, the after-effects of that attempt, and the present outlook for the Venezuelan economy, particular its oil economy and its interactions with China and Iran. They discuss the declining influence of American sanctions, and the condition of the multi-million Venezuelan refugee community inside neighboring Columbia. Briscoe considers the possibility of a Russian build up in the Latin American region with Venezuela as a possible area of focus. And they close by talking through what policies the United States should change in relation to the regional situation in both Columbia and Venezuela. Ivan Briscoe joined Crisis Group in June 2016 as Program Director for Latin America and the Caribbean. He has worked on Latin American politics, conflict and crime since 1996. Before joining Crisis Group, Ivan worked as a senior research fellow in the Clingendael Institute of the Netherlands and in the Foundation for International Relations and Foreign Dialogue (FRIDE) in Spain, where he specialized in the study of illicit networks in Latin America, new forms of armed violence and the effects of inequality. Prior to that, he worked for over a decade as a journalist and editor in Argentina, France and Spain, where he edited the English edition of El Paнs. He has carried out fieldwork-based research in various Latin American countries, including Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama, Peru and Venezuela, and has written for numerous media in the region and in Europe. He graduated from Oxford University with a First Class Honour's Degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics, studied as a Frank Knox Fellow at Harvard University, and also holds a Master's Degree in Development from the Complutense University of Madrid.

Venezuelan sanctions and the Maduro regime have been a backburner issue so far for US President Joe Biden. When he was elected, many energy analysts predicted he would grant some sanctions relief on humanitarian grounds. Fernando Ferreira, director of Rapidan Energy Group's Geopolitical Risk Service, predicts we'll start to see the White House's direction on Venezuela later this year. We asked him about the ban on diesel-for-crude swaps, Chevron's waiver extension, the status of opposition leader Juan Guaido and the future of Venezuela's oil production. Stick around after the interview for the Market Minute, a look at near-term oil market drivers.
Today on Sojourner Truth: The latest on Venezuela as all eyes are on the Biden administration to see if he will continue the previous administration's efforts at regime change to regain U.S. control and influence in that oil-rich nation. This, even as European Union states have withdrawn their recognition of Juan Guaido as interim "president" of Venezuela. In 2019, Guaido declared himself "president," despite the fact that Venezuela already has a democratically-elected president, Nicolas Maduro. What is the situation now, given the recent election results in Venezuela? What is the impact of COVID-19 on that nation? What steps is the government taking to confront the austerity imposed in part as a result of US and EU sanctions? Our guest is Ricardo Vaz, is a writer and editor at Venezuela Analysis, an independent website produced by individuals who are dedicated to disseminating news and analysis about the current political situation in Venezuela. Ricardo is based in Venezuela. Nana Gyamfi joins us to discuss what's going on with Black immigrants in the United States and deportations. Across the nation of Mexico, thousands of African and African-descended immigrants from Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana, Gabon, The Congo, Haiti, and elsewhere, are stranded as they are being denied entry to the United States. Many of them are mothers, children and young men, and they often face violence from criminal groups exploiting their vulnerable situations. Also, a report on the International Commission of Inquiry on Systemic Racist Police Violence against People of African Descent in the United States. Nana Gyamfi is an attorney, consultant, educator, activist, the Executive Director of Black Alliance for Just Immigration (BAJI), and the President of the National Conference of Black Lawyers. Also, we remember Rudy Salas, founding member of the Chicano R&B band Tierra, who passed away on December 29, 2020. We speak with his brother, Steve Salas, who co-founded Tierra along with Rudy.

From the CoinDesk Global Macro newsdesk, this is Borderless - A twice-monthly roundup of the most important stories impacting bitcoin and the crypto sector from around the world. It's created by reporters Nikhilesh De, Anna Baydakova and Danny NelsonOn today's show: the FinCEN files, AirTM isn't working in Venezuela the way people hoped and stablecoin regulations are reappearing in the U.S. and Europe.CoinDesk's inaugural episode of Borderless discusses the FinCEN Files, which showed that not only is a global superpower keeping tabs on thousands of financial transactions, but it doesn't appear to actually be tamping downon the alleged crimes it purportedly wants to halt using this data. What's more, many of these transaction records aren't suspicious. Should the government hold on to this personal and financial data for 20 years?Stablecoin regulations are resurging in both Europe and the U.S., with government officials in both regions publishing new guidance discussing how stablecoins might be regulated and how issuers can interact with banks. The EU wants stablecoin issuers to abide by strict "e-money" rules, according to draft legislation leaked last week. Meanwhile, a federal banking regulator in the U.S. says nationally regulated banks can offer stablecoin issuers financial services.This applies specifically to hosted wallets, meaning wallets that are controlled by a trusted (regulated) third party. Wallets where users directly control the keys do not fall into the guidance. For its part, the Securities and Exchange Commission warns that some of these digital assets may or may not look like securities, and recommends that issuers contact it prior to launching a new token.Another stablecoin story down in Venezuela has us rethinking whether the country's purported crypto economy is really as robust as the headlines make you think. CoinDesk contributor Jose Rafael Pena Gholam writes that opposition leader Juan Guaido's attempted airdrop of $19 million in stablecoins to Venezuela's “health heroes” has fallen flat.The money came from funds seized by U.S authorities. Guaido was hoping to use it to back pay thousands of health workers with a $100 bonus for three months of work, but the drop has been hampered by the Maduro regime and tech hiccups.Reporters Nikhilesh De, Daniel Nelson and Anna Baydakova discuss these issues and more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Cuba's Ambassador on the Escalating US Sanctions (0:31)Guest: Jose R. Cabanas, Ambassador of the Republic of Cuba to the United StatesSince President Donald Trump took office he has steadily re-imposed sanctions and travel restrictions on Cuba that Obama Administration had lifted. Recently, the Trump Administration has imposed additional sanctions because of Cuba's support for the Maduro government in Venezuela. Cuba, Russia and China continue to back Nicolas Maduro, while the US, European Union and most Latin American countries recognize opposition leader Juan Guaido as Venezuela's interim president and want Maduro to step down. Fast Answers to Questions Aren't Necessarily More Truthful (12:33)Guest: John Protzko is a Cognitive Scientist in the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences, University of California, Santa BarbaraIf you ask someone a question and they answer quickly, that must mean they're telling the truth, right? Because they don't have time to come up with a lie? Well, not necessarily. Turns out that people can -and will -lie when under pressure. How American High Schools can Promote Greater Learning (22:25)Guest: Sarah Fine, Co-Author of “In Search of Deeper Learning: The Quest to Remake the American High School”, Program Director at High Tech High Graduate School of EducationThink back to high school for a moment, if you can bear it. Where did you do your most engaged learning? Was it in particular subject, or with a particular teacher? Maybe it wasn't even in class, but during extracurricular activity. That's how it was for me. I worked on the school newspaper. No surprise there, I guess. Education researcher Sarah Fine spent hundreds of hours shadowing high school students in some of the nation's best schools to figure out the special ingredients for what she calls “deeper learning.” I Can Do Science (39:30)Guest: Maya Swamps and Irrigation May Have Supported a Much Bigger Population (50:38)Guest: Timothy Beach, Ph.D., Geoarchaeologist, Department of Geography and the Environment, University of Texas at AustinJust how large were the ancient Mayan cities of Latin America, and how advanced were their farming practices? The two are connected because a civilization can only be as large as it has food to sustain itself –either by growing it or importing it. So that's why geoarchaeologist Timothy Beach spends so much time puzzling over the Maya farming question. Recently he and his team used airplanes equipped with radar to make some startling discoveries about the scale of Maya agriculture a thousand years ago. Your Kid Might Have a Good Reason to Whine (1:04:39)Guest: Rose Sokol-Chang, PhD, Journal Publisher at the American Psychological Association“How do I stop my kids from whining?” is one of the top questions parenting experts get. But Rose Sokol-Chang studied whining at Clark University and she says it's actually an important part of a child's social development. That it's even a sign of love and affection and parents should pay attention to. Movies about Female Villains (1:17:53)Guest: Kirsten Hawkes, ParentPreviews.comWhy is it that Disney's princesses are nearly always up against a female villain? A villainess if you will. The Evil Queen, Ursula the Sea Witch, the Wicked Stepmother. . . Maleficient. With the second Maleficient film out in theaters, Kirsten Hawkes of ParentPreviews.com has been giving some thought to the phenomenon of the female villain. What motivates them? Which are the most villainous –and why?
