Aux États-Unis, la candidate démocrate Kamala Harris a choisi son colistier. Il s'agit de Tim Waltz, le gouverneur du Minnesota. La vice-présidente de Joe Biden s'est dite « fière » de l'avoir choisi pour défendre sa candidature face à Donald Trump lors de la présidentielle américaine en novembre : « En tant que gouverneur, entraîneur, enseignant et vétéran, il a défendu les intérêts des familles de travailleurs comme la sienne ». Grâce à ce choix,Kamala Harris élargit son électorat vers le centre, le Midwest américain – plus précisément l'État du Minnesota et surtout l'électorat ouvrier, explique Aabla Jounaïdi. Ce choix est aussi celui de la campagne et des zones périurbaines, des électeurs qui ne sont pas forcément acquis à la candidate démocrate. Autre avantage : Tim Waltz est très apprécié par les éléments progressistes du parti, pour sa politique favorable aux travailleurs et moins accommodantes envers les grands groupes capitalistiques.L'autre favori Josh Shapiro était la « bête noire » des démocrates progressistes : le gouverneur de la Pennsylvanie s'était illustré par ses propos contre les étudiants manifestant en faveur des Palestiniens, les comparant à l'extrême-droite. Avec lui, Kamala Harris risquait de s'aliéner le vote des plus jeunes et celui des minorités, notamment les Américains musulmans, très actifs depuis la campagne israélienne à Gaza. Les gangs s'acharnent sur GanthierEn Haïti, le gang 400 mawozo avait déjà détruit le 21 juillet 2024 le commissariat de cette commune proche de Port-au-Prince, cette fois ses membres ont incendié les locaux de la douane, rapporte Le Nouvelliste, ainsi qu'un véhicule blindé de la police.Non loin de là, la population de Fonds-Parisien craint d'être attaquée à son tour. Fonds-Parisien, rappelle Alter Presse, où plus de 3 800 habitants de Ganthier se sont réfugiés après les attaques fin juillet 2024. Et justement, selon un de ces habitants réfugiés cités par Le Nouvelliste, la centaine de policiers du Kenya venus à Ganthier après la destruction du commissariat sont repartis sans reprendre le contrôle de la ville, ce qui a rendu confiance aux bandits, qui ont soudé des barres de fer au niveau d'un pont, « obstruant le passage vers Ganthier, Fonds-Parisien, Malpasse et une partie du sud-est ». Les craintes des habitants de Fonds-Parisien de se voir attaqués ont redoublé.Ce lundi, rapporte AlterPresse, les deux syndicats de la Police nationale d'Haïti ont appelé les autorités de l'État à prendre les mesures appropriées pour stopper les violences à Ganthier. « La réponse du gouvernement face à l'augmentation des violences des gangs est insuffisante », renchéritLe National. « Il y a vingt jours que le gouvernement a décidé de décréter l'État d'urgence sécuritaire dans 14 communes des départements de l'Ouest et de l'Artibonite », écrit de son côté Le Nouvelliste, qui poursuit : « trois semaines après, on a le droit de se demander si l'État d'urgence sécuritaire est juste une annonce de plus (…) L'insécurité persiste ».Le Bac en HaïtiC'est dans ce contexte toujours très difficile que les épreuves du baccalauréat ont commencé ce lundi (5 août 2024) : « Du lundi 5 au jeudi 8 août, 12 100 candidates et candidats participent aux épreuves », écrit Alter Presse. Lundi, c'était philo et chimie – et la journée s'est déroulée sans incident majeur, selon plusieurs responsables de centres d'examens interrogés par Le National. Dans AlterPresse, le directeur de l'Enseignement secondaire affirme que ces examens « préparés en fonction du programme spécial élaboré en réponse à la crise, permettront à toutes les participantes et tous les participants de pouvoir composer normalement ». Entre janvier et juin, à cause des violences, 156 000 élèves ont été touchés par les fermetures d'écoles. À écouter aussiHaïti : les familles face à la fermeture des écoles Au Venezuela, l'opposition appelle l'armée à la rejoindreAu Venezuela, l'opposition, représentée par la cheffe de file Maria Corina Machado et le candidat à la présidentielle Edmundo Gonzales Urrutia, a demandé à l'armée de se joindre à sa lutte contre le président réélu Nicolas Maduro.Dans le pays, explique Marion Lebèque, la puissance de l'armée est telle que le camp qu'elle choisit de soutenir est quasiment assuré de rester ou d'accéder au pouvoir. Rappelons qu'après la dernière élection, le ministre de la Défense a réaffirmé le soutien inconditionnel de l'armée au chef de l'État qu'elle considère comme « légitimement réélu ». Une armée particulièrement choyée par les chavistes depuis 25 ans : dès son accès au pouvoir, Hugo Chavez avait attribué aux militaires des postes importants dans son gouvernement ; son successeur Nicolas Maduro serait même allé plus loin en permettant à nombreux officiers de s'enrichir.En 2019, un groupe de militaires avait aidé à faire libérer un opposant, Leopoldo Lopez, assigné à résidence. Depuis cet épisode, le gouvernement de Nicolas Maduro a lancé une véritable chasse aux dissidents au sein de l'armée. De quoi décourager les militaires de désobéir à Nicolas Maduro.Après son appel, l'opposition fait désormais l'objet d'une enquête criminelle ouverte par le parquet vénézuélien contre Maria Corina Machado et Edmundo Gonzales Urrutia pour entre autres « usurpation de fonctions, incitation à l'insurrection, association de malfaiteurs ». À écouter aussiPrésidentielle au Venezuela : « Il y a eu des irrégularités toute la journée du vote » « De l'amour des chiens »La crise au Venezuela fait craindre un nouvel exode de la population : quelque 7,5 millions de personnes ont déjà quitté le pays au cours de la dernière décennie, selon l'agence des Nations unies pour les réfugiés. Un exode au cœur d'un livre publié aux éditions Gallimard, «De l'amour des chiens» : l'écrivain vénézuélien Rodrigo Blanco Calderón y imagine un pays rempli de chiens abandonnés, délaissés par leurs maîtres qui fuient la crise... María Carolina Piña, de la rédaction de RFI en espagnol, qui a joint Rodrigo Blanco Calderón, explique que les chiens de ce roman sont une métaphore des Vénézuéliens, orphelins de leurs pays : ceux qui restent font face à de nombreuses difficultés – manque d'aliments, de services de base, de repères. Reprise des actions offensives de l'armée colombienne contre l'ELNL'annonce a été faite par le ministre de la Défense après, précise El Espectador, l'expiration dimanche du cessez-le-feu bilatéral entre le gouvernement et l'ELN, en place depuis un an. Explication : les tensions qui existent depuis plus de six mois entre la guérilla et les négociateurs de la Haute commission pour la paix ont débouché sur une paralysie du dialogue. « Le gouvernement a tenté par tous les moyens d'obtenir une prolongation » du cessez-le-feu, affirme Semana. L'ONU et l'Église catholique avaient elles aussi demandé que les deux parties se réunissent. Depuis la fin de la semaine dernière, les municipalités les plus affectées par la présence de la guérilla sont en état d'alerte maximale, craignant des représailles des rebelles, rapporte El Colombiano. Google reconnu coupable de pratiques anticoncurrentielles« Google est un monopole », cingle le juge Amit  P. Mehta, repris en Une du Wall Street Journal. La plainte avait été déposée par le Département d'État ainsi que 38 États et territoires. Selon le juge, rapportele quotidien, « Google, qui rassemble 90% des recherches internet dans le monde, a exploité sa domination du marché pour écraser ses concurrents », en « payant des milliards de dollars à des opérateurs de navigateurs web et constructeurs de smartphones pour être leur moteur de recherche par défaut ». Le New York Times y voit un « jugement sévère » sur la montée des entreprises des géants de la tech « qui ont utilisé leurs liens avec internet pour influencer la manière dont nous consommons, la manière dont nous nous informons et menons nos recherches en ligne » ; un jugement qui, selon le quotidien, « indique une limite potentielle au pouvoir de la Big Tech ». Le juge Mehta va maintenant se prononcer sur d'éventuelles mesures coercitives pour Google, qui, selon le quotidien, pourraient l'obliger « à modifier son mode de fonctionnement ou à vendre une partie de ses activités ». À lire aussiÉtats-Unis: Google condamné pour pratiques anticoncurrentielles avec son moteur de recherche Le journal de la PremièreL'INSERM, l'Institut de la Santé et de la Recherche médicale lance une nouvelle étude sur les conséquences du chlordécone. À écouter aussiLa lutte contre le chlordécone en Guadeloupe : un exemple de racisme environnemental

El opositor Leopoldo López es entrevistado en Es Noticia sobre las elecciones que se van a celebrar en Venezuela este domingo 28 de julio.

From 2008 to 2015, millions of Venezuelans risked their lives in the fight for democracy against Hugo Chávez. Enduring financial apartheid and hyperinflation under the oppressive regimes of Chavez and Maduro, many Venezuelans found stablecoins to be a solution to their economic challenges. Leopoldo López, led the fight against Venezuela's authoritarian leaders.. He became a symbol of opposition to the Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro regimes, advocating for political change and transparency, which led to his imprisonment on charges of inciting violence during anti-government protests in 2014. Despite being locked away in solitary confinement, Leopoldo's passion for his country never wavered and he continues to be a voice for freedom.

If great leaders are those willing to suffer for their beliefs, Leopoldo Lopez is certainly a great leader. After he led the massive 2014 Venezuelan protests that swept the nation, the regime of Nicolás Maduro sentenced Leopoldo to over a decade of political imprisonment. He suffered four years of solitary confinement and psychological torture before he escaped.  Leopoldo tells me about his time in prison and how he cultivated the mental strength to endure. The story of how he smuggled himself into exile is a truly remarkable one. Most of us will never experience military prison, but what Leopoldo discovered about surviving enormous stress is something each of us can learn from.  This…is A Bit of Optimism.   To find out more about Leopoldo and his work, check out: worldlibertycongress.orgSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Margaret Hoover sits down with exiled Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez to discuss his efforts to advance democracy in his home country and around the world. Lopez, who spent nearly four years in solitary confinement under Nicolas Maduro's regime before fleeing the country in 2020, reflects on how life has changed in Venezuela under a repressive government that operates what he calls a “criminal economy” and the challenges the opposition movement faces. He assesses the “fragile” state of democracy in the world today and explains the mission of the World Liberty Congress, which he co-founded to unite pro-democracy activists against a growing coalition of autocratic governments that includes Venezuela, Russia, and China. Lopez also addresses the global ramifications of the war in Ukraine, China's influence in South America, and the indictment of Sen. Robert Menendez, one of Maduro's most vocal critics on Capitol Hill. Speaking to Hoover in late September–before the government suspended the primary process and issued arrest warrants for Lopez and other opposition figures–Lopez expresses hope for Venezuela's 2024 elections despite doubts that Maduro will allow a free and fair vote. He comments on shifts in U.S. policy under the Biden administration and what he believes the U.S. and its allies can do to help the Venezuelan people.

Leopoldo Lopez is one of the most prominent Venezuelan opposition leaders. For openly challenging dictators like Chávez and Maduro, he was sentenced to 13 years in prison. He famously turned himself in and ended up spending 3 years in a military prison, and 2 under house arrest. During the 2019 uprising against Maduro’s regime, Lopez escaped house arrest and sought refuge in the Spanish Embassy, where he remained for over a year. In 2020, he escaped from Venezuela in disguise over the border into Colombia.He joins Uriel Epshtein to discuss how he developed the resilience to survive 3 years of solitary confinement, what inspires him about American democracy, and why the Venezuelan opposition chose to hang the Ukrainian flag outside of the Venezuelan Embassy in D.C. Our conversation hinges on why all the sacrifices he has made in his now-global fight against dictatorship are worth it. Subscribe at renewdemocracy.substack.com

Firing Line is on the road as host Margaret Hoover sits down with three dissidents during the Human Rights Foundation's Oslo Freedom Forum in Miami for a discussion on the global fight against human rights abuses. Hatice Cengiz is the fianceé of slain Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi. She has inherited his fight for human rights after his murder three years ago at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in an operation U.S. intelligence says was approved by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. She tells Margaret justice for Jamal means he “shouldn't be king.” Former Venezuelan political prisoner Leopoldo Lopez, who was jailed for years for challenging the Maduro regime, explains that “authoritarianism is on the rise” and tells Margaret that the U.S. needs to lead other democracies in opposition. “Americans need to understand that they have a responsibility to the rest of the world to promote and to defend freedom.” Uyghur activist Jewher Ilham's father was “symbol of the voice of the Uyghurs” until 2013 when he was detained by Chinese authorities and given a life sentence. Ilham has expanded her fight beyond her father's case — and is now speaking for more than a million Uyghurs facing similar mistreatment. “What is happening in China to the Uyghurs, it is a humanitarian crisis,” she says, calling for legislative action in Congress.

Continued fighting in many parts of Ethiopia's Tigray region is hindering efforts to deliver aid, according to the United Nations. Nearly 50,000 refugees from the fighting have fled across the border to Sudan. Their camps are believed to be running out of food. Also on the programme: as the UN urges Belarus to release thousands of people detained during protests against the disputed President Lukashenko, one woman tells us about her plans to return; and senior Venezuelan opposition leader, Leopoldo Lopez, explains why he is planning to boycott Sunday's elections.

The socialist government of Venezuela presides over an economy in meltdown and a population desperate for change. Yet the country's opposition has failed to build a movement capable of bringing down President Nicolas Maduro. Why? In an exclusive interview, Stephen Sackur speaks to Leopoldo Lopez, the founder of the opposition Popular Will party. Last month, he escaped from Venezuela and found refuge in Spain. Is that the action of a man who has lost faith in the opposition's ability to win their struggle?

Las noticias en Venezuela no dejan de sorprender. Este fin de semana el escape de Leopoldo Lopez se llevó la atención de periódicos y portales de información dentro y fuera de Venezuela. El sábado 24 de octubre en la mañana comenzó a rodar por las redes sociales que Leopoldo había salido de la embajada de España donde se encontraba como huésped desde hacía 18 meses. Según se reseña en un artículo de Caraota Digital, muy parecido al peregrinar de los caminantes que se van de Venezuela, fue la travesía realizada por Leopoldo Lopez para su escape. Rumores van y vienen, ¿hubo complicidad i ayuda?¿fue concertada la salida? Lo cierto es que el dirigente de Voluntad Popular se encuentra en España con su familia y en libertad. Por su parte, el régimen de Maduro, acusa al embajador de España de estar involucrado en la fuga y a través del SEBIN detuvieron a varias personas que trabajan en la misión diplomática, incluida una mujer que cocinaba para López”. El gobierno español responde a estos actos a través de un comunicado indicando que no se están cumpliendo las obligaciones contenidas en la Convención de Viena sobre Relaciones Diplomáticas ¿Qué pasará ahora en el escenario político venezolano?¿Qué puede hacer Leopoldo López desde el exterior? ¿Cuál es el impacto para la oposición? César Miguel Rondón aborda el tema junto al doctor en ciencias políticas y abogado Luis Salamanca y al periodista Pedro Pablo Peñaloza, @pppenaloza especializado en la fuente política. #Venezuela #Libertad #LaFuga #LeopoldoLópez #VoluntadPopular #Dictadura #Maduro --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/sincodigo/message

Llevaba mucho tiempo sin compartir con ella, pero son varios años. A Lilian la conocí hace muchísimo tiempo entre sets de comerciales de tv y compartimos durante una década los pasillos de la radio y de los canales de televisión. Hasta que a Lilian, un día, le cambió la vida. Porque antes que el mundo conociera a Lilian como voz de los derechos humanos de los presos políticos en Venezuela, Lilian es maestra, presentadora de tv, locutora, maratonista y profesora de yoga. En ese camino se enamoró de uno de los políticos más prometedores de su generación, Leopoldo Lopez. Se casaron y emprendieron planes de vida en pareja, que se vieron interrumpidos unos años después, cuando su esposo se entregó a la inexistente justicia venezolana por crímenes que no cometió. Lo que muchos pensamos serían unos meses de negociación, hoy ya son 6 años de confinamiento y 14 de una injusta condena. Así, repentinamente, Lilian, la presentadora efervescente y atleta, se reinventó frente a un país turbulento y azotado por una dictadura. Se convirtió en la voz de su esposo, en una luchadora incansable por la libertad de Venezuela. Es una defensora de la democracia de su país y es una voz incómoda para muchos políticos en el mundo. Y encima de todo esto, Lilian es madre de 3 hijos, que han tenido que crecer lejos de su papá. Hoy, Lilian nos cuenta de su vida desde Madrid, de sus luchas como mujer y madre, de las dificultades en el camino, y que nada nada nada de lo que le ha tocado ha sido fácil. Porque no conforme con emprender esta lucha, ha tenido que soportar críticas de mucha gente, y ella sigue allí, de hierro. Porque muchos de sus detractores quizás nunca se han puesto en sus zapatos, en los zapatos de una mujer que se enamoró y que lo único que quiere es a su esposo de regreso. Una reinvención que quizás más que muchos otros casos, ha tenido que ser literalmente En Defensa Propia.

Te explico muy brevemente la situación de Venezuela. ¿Por qué Venezuela está como está?, ¿cómo llegaron a esta situación?, ¿cómo le van a hacer para salir de esto?

Friday, May 3, 2019 Venezuela orders the arrest of one of the coup leaders, and Facebook cracks down on hate speech. This is TRT World’s Daily News Brief for Friday, May 3rd. Opposition's Lopez hides in Spanish ambassador's residence Venezuela’s top court has ordered the arrest of opposition figure Leopoldo Lopez. Lopez stood beside Juan Guaido when he launched his coup attempt on Tuesday. Lopez is now hiding in the Spanish ambassador's residence in the capital, Caracas. Turkey says it will be hard to replace Iranian oil Turkey's foreign minister says, "It does not seem possible for us to diversify the sources of the oil we import in a short time." Mevlut Cavusoglu was speaking on Thursday as a US waiver on the import of Iran's oil expired. Tehran is one of the most important suppliers of oil to Turkey. Ankara wants Washington to review the decision to end the waivers. Regime continues to attack Syrian de-escalation zone Russian and Syrian forces hit a de-escalation zone in the northwest overnight according to the White Helmets. At least eight civilians were killed in the assault on the region which is still in the hands of rebels and the opposition. Russia and Turkey agreed to demilitarise the area last year in a bid to de-escalate the violence. Monster cyclone smashes into eastern India Cyclone Fani slammed into India on Friday, tearing down trees, blowing away food stands and cutting off power and water. It's one of the biggest storms to come off the Indian Ocean in recent years. Facebook bans extremists in crackdown on hate speech And finally, Facebook says it's banning people like Alex Jones, Milo Yiannopoulos, Laura Loomer and Paul Joseph Watson from its platforms. They're all extremists who specialise in hate speech. Facebook is also banning Louis Farrakhan, who preaches black separatism and has called Jews "termites." And that’s your daily news brief from TRT World ... For more, head to TRTWorld.com.

"Guaido had urged the military to seize power and his supporters took to the streets to clash with police, but his "Operation Liberty" fizzled within a few hours, with Guaido's mentor Leopoldo Lopez requesting asylum in the embassy of Chile, and about two dozen members of the Venezuelan military that backed the opposition fleeing to the embassy of Brazil."

Breaking news out of Venezuela, US backed Juan Guaido the man who declared himself President of Vz though unelected, has been joined by a small group of Vz military defectors and have announced that today's action, backed by the US is the beginning of the end of the Maduro government. Joining him is Leopoldo Lopez who apparently was freed by forces loyal to Guaido. We are joined by journalist Paul Dobson who is on the ground in Caracas. Also breaking news, gun shots were fired at the US Embassy in Venezuela, this just days after I was in Haiti as part of a delegation led by Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Danny Glover and attorneys Walter Riley and Brian Concanon were also part of the delegation. Today we bring you new testimony from women survivors of the politically and government backed massacres taking place in Lasaline and the surrounding areas in Haiti's capital city of Port au Prince. And on the white supremist attack on the Chabad of Poway Synagogue on April 28th that killed one person and wounded others, we speak with Dustin Craun, Executive Director of the Council of American Islamic Relations, San Diego. We mourn the death of famed Black film director John Singleton, we speak with Lawrence Ware, Co-Director of the Center for Africana Studies and Professor of Philosophy at Oklahoma State University

Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido is calling for a military uprising to oust socialist leader Nicolas Maduro. He was joined early Tuesday by a small group of heavily armed soldiers and activist Leopoldo Lopez. Venezuela’s socialist party boss has called on government supporters to gather at the presidential palace to defend Maduro from what he says is a small uprising. A German bank being sued by President Trump in his attempt to block congressional subpoenas for his business records says it's "committed to providing appropriate information to all authorized investigations." Trump, his family and the Trump Organization have filed a lawsuit against Deutsche Bank and Capital One. Japanese Emperor Akihito has announced his abdication at a palace ceremony. In his final address, he said “Since ascending the throne 30 years ago, I have performed my duties as the emperor with a deep sense of trust in and respect for the people. His son Crown Prince Naruhito now becomes the new emperor.

Moderate Rebels episode 33 (part 1/2): Max Blumenthal and Ben Norton speak with Professor Steve Ellner about Venezuela's right-wing opposition, and how the corporate media whitewashes its use of violence and economic sabotage. Ellner explains some of the economic problems faced by President Nicolás Maduro, including manipulation of exchange rates and low oil prices.
