00:00
We return live to Caracas as Cuban President arrived at the venue for the Albatizibi Summit
00:09
and he's being welcomed right now as we are seeing on the images on our screen.
00:15
President Nicolás Maduro is officially welcoming President of Cuba Miguel Díaz-Canel here
00:20
at this venue where the 24th Summit of Albatizibi Heads of State agreement is about to take
00:26
place in a few minutes.
00:28
They will have a first meeting, closed doors, among the heads of state agreement here, present
00:33
here in this venue and there on, roughly in like an hour and a half, we'll have the live
00:40
statements of all the member states here during this 24th Summit that is marking an important
00:46
milestone of the 20th anniversary of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of America's People's
00:53
Trade Treaty.
00:55
An important milestone because it has been 20 years of hard work among all its member
01:02
nations from the very beginning, the founding nations of Venezuela and Cuba and later on
01:08
the others that have joined this important alliance for the development and prosperity
01:14
of the region of Latin America and the Caribbean to ensure equitable development of the people.
01:20
We will be seeing live the images of President Miguel Díaz-Canel as he arrives at the venue
01:27
where the Albatizibi Summit is about to begin, first in closed doors and then we'll have
01:32
the open statements of the member states and two special guests, Haiti and Palestine, which
01:37
also have a representation here today in this meeting.
01:42
We will have all this information, of course, we will have it live here for our audience
01:55
present.
01:56
We will have all these statements of the different states, heads of states on Grumman.
02:01
So as we were saying, this marks, this summit is in a special moment, marks the 20th anniversary
02:05
of the Bolivarian Alliance and there are going to be many topics on the agenda, the current
02:09
geopolitical scenario that is being experienced, the unilateral sanctions that have been imposed
02:14
around the world, especially mainly in member states as Nicaragua, Venezuela and Cuba, the
02:20
condemnation of the blockade, the situation, the situation of the security crisis in Haiti
02:27
and of course the current genocide that is being, taking place in Palestine, being carried
02:32
out by the government of Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli occupation forces that have launched
02:38
an onslaught on Gaza since, for over 12 months now, since last year in October.
02:45
All these elements are going to be on the table for discussion among the member states.
02:52
We will have them here as well, we will have all these statements for you live as they
02:57
continue to analyze and they continue to make proposals and see how they can move forward.
03:04
All this is going to be enshrined in the declarations that are going to be signed
03:07
later after the summit ends and the declaration, the statements are going to be read, they're
03:14
going to be different statements.
03:15
There's going to be a statement of the ALBA-TCP, of course, of the 21st Summit, but there's
03:19
also going to be a statement in regards to the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Ayacucho,
03:25
this battle that was recently celebrated 200th anniversary, which marked the end of Spanish
03:31
colonialism in Latin America after the defeat of the Spanish Empire, the then most, the
03:37
biggest army back in the days, in those times that were defeated in Peru and with it it
03:42
marked the end of the Spanish imperialism in our region.
03:47
Also there's going to be a declaration in regards to the situation of Palestine, the
03:53
blight that the Palestinian people is suffering at the hands of the Israeli regime and their
03:58
genocidal operations that are being carried out in Gaza, that today as we continue to
04:03
speak, attacks continue to be carried out against the civilian population of Gaza where
04:10
thousands and thousands of people have died and hundreds of thousands have been wounded
04:14
so far, most of them women and children, has been reported by official UN health authorities
04:20
on this table.
04:21
So all these topics are going to be on the table, they're going to continue working to
04:25
see what they can move forward and the proposals to face all the economic crises that are being
04:31
faced today by the nations of the region and how to circumvent all the sanctions that are
04:38
being imposed on the economies of Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua and the impact it has for
04:44
the development of the people of the region, which is one of the key aspects of our participation
04:49
is to bring development through joint cooperation of the people of its member states to have
04:54
an equitable distribution of the resources to be able to move forward and on this topic
05:00
one of the other achievements that have been done by ALBA-TCP in order to move forward
05:03
with their goals of sustainable development, taking equality and joint cooperation and
05:09
true cooperation among these people, it was the creation of ALBA, of the ALBA bank, El
05:14
Banco de ALBA, with the idea of creating a unique currency called the Sucre in order
05:20
to be able to continue working and to fund projects, development projects in the region
05:27
to enhance the development and the economic development of the nation. We were previously
05:33
talking of different achievements, different achievements of the ALBA-TCP so far and we
05:41
were discussing how the miracle operation idea that was born from Fidel Castro, an idea
05:48
to bring eye surgeries to the people in the corners of the region and something that's
05:54
been implemented then in the rest of the world as well, for low income families, low income
06:00
households to have eye surgeries and over 5 million people to date have recovered their
06:04
sight, also the end of illiteracy through different programs like the Yes We Can program
06:11
method that was established in Venezuela and Nicaragua and Bolivia, raising, eliminating
06:18
the situation of illiteracy in these countries. And we continue talking about everything that
06:26
we are waiting for the beginning, as we were saying, the heads of states which have gathered
06:32
here today, they will first have a closed door meeting, a closed door meeting of, and
06:39
they will be discussing, arguing about what is happening in the current situation in the
06:48
region. After this, we will continue to, they will have a photo op, they will walk through
06:58
an exposition of framing the achievements of the 20th anniversary and then they will
07:04
have the open meeting where all the heads of states and representatives that have gathered
07:09
here will address the floor and they will express everything that has been done so far.
07:20
Now, all the heads of states that have been here, as we were saying, are going to be,
07:26
we were seeing all the arrival of the different heads of states that have arrived and President
07:33

07:40
Alba, 24th Alba TCP, heads of states and government to begin. All the main actors are there present
07:48
at the venue and now we will have to wait for the moment where the statement is about
07:54

08:00
their closed door meeting and hopefully it will last for over an hour and a half, this

08:12
talking and then they will sit at the plenary where each of the representatives of the heads
08:17
