supporting democracy in venezuela. it's becoming clearer that the great majority of the armed forces and the national guard do not want to carry out the maduro regime's shameful orders. and the use of armed gangs suggests that maduro has reeled out about the loyalty of the venezuelan military. for those members of the armed forces still on the fence fearing retaliation by the maduro cuban accomplices. we ask them to show pride and patriotism. we believe they have a key role to play in rebuilding the homeland. interim president guaido and the political parties in venezuela's legitimate national assembly have allstated that the transition to a new post-moldenhauer of venezuela will be a multiparty inclusive process. it will include chavez followers and others who see a democratic future for venezuela led by the venezuelan people, not a dictator and a small, corrupt crew. we are grateful for the leadership of our partners in supporting humanitarian assistance for the people of venezuela. and supporting their demand for de

venezuela is at a crossroads. one in which a dictator clings to power amidst the ruins of a failed state and in which democratic actors seek a peaceful transition in their country. the maduro regime has inflicted widespread suffering on the venezuelan people. i think the chairman made his opening remarks very extensive on this question. from a man-made humanitarian crisis to an economy in freefall, to the violence perpetrated by security forces, collecttiveos and the death squads, maduro is a criminal dictate who are has destroyed a country. his election and inauguration are illegitimate. not because we say it, but the world says it. and his grip on power comes only from the oppression of his people, the assets he has stolen from them and the military leaders he has paid for their loyalty. the fact that he is closely advised by cuba and bank rolled by russia and china only complicates the matters. there is, however, a democratic process by which members of the legitimately elected national assembly exercise their

[speaking spanish] >> [through the interpreter] well, shortly it's about knowledge, it's about a lack of information. if you want to talk about the economy, we are seeing 53% rate, a thousand percent in inflation, a lack of basic products, medication and food. if we look at day-to-day suffering of the venezuelan people it's not about numbers, it's about human beings. people suffering who see their lives in danger and cannot provide for themselves as human beings. so regarding the crisis going on in venezuela, i invite everyone to see what's going on in venezuela. and the displaced perso

the oil sector, which will cost venezuela, according to john the oil sector, which will cost venezuela, according tojohn bolton, trump's national security adviser, 11 billion us dollars a year, it will completely cripple and destroy what remains of the venezuelan economy. how do you feel about that? hello well, it is not fair to say that the decline in oil production is the consequence of sanctions. venezuela's oil industry is doing really badly since 2014, well before sanctions ever came into place. venezuela's oil production rank was around three or more than 3 million barrels and today, even before sanctions, we were around 1 million, so sanctions, we were around 1 million, so what that means is that... yeah, this is a really, really important question. i'm not discussing with you whether there are huge problems in the venezuelan oil industry anyway, i'm just asking you have a plain question. united states believes that its new sanctions, which are about to really bite your country, will cost venezuelan $11 billion us a year, money which the us says it will keep and will try to funn

according to international media of venezuela. even though it's been proved to have the world's biggest oil reserves. is that really true. in facias. king. your knees. and i know you know. where that. is it will. give us a. little. dealing with this. critical. so you know. in terms of mr why go home he's played a useful role but i think that the mistake he's made thus far is not announcing that he. stand for president so to say to the venezuelan people and in the international community i've done my role which i believe is a constitutional one is the interim president but don't look for me to run think if he were to do that the situation in venezuela be perceived as less one of the united states for. their bread for a single purpose. they have a superman. they start training very young. eight months of intensive schooling. their reps. and they save lives. you know world of big partisan movies a lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever shouting pas
