00:00It's all very confusing, the information that comes here. Natalia Rolando Graña is talking to you. How are you doing?

00:07Hello, good evening, dear friends. Well, yes, indeed, we are confused not only in the world, but in Venezuela itself.

00:15The information is very confusing because what we can really talk about is what is seen.

00:21I could not, to be sure, tell you something that is not really proven, not even by Maria Corina Machado.

00:28Why do I say this? Because the video that is circulating on social networks, where she shows words,

00:35where she says that she is fine, that she was neither arrested, nor kidnapped, nor persecuted, or absolutely nothing like that.

00:43That video is not very clear for some people. They put it in doubt.

00:48In fact, so much so that they have come to say that it could be even artificial intelligence.

00:53Because this video has not really been made official, as such, in their official accounts.

00:58So, what really, for those of us who know the strongest leader of the Venezuelan opposition, Maria Corina,

01:04the ideal is that she can inform in an official way on her social network accounts.

01:09Yes, in fact, it does not seem the same person, the same person who is speaking so vehemently.

01:16The speech does not seem the same as it is almost without a voice, speaking in a hooded voice.

01:21And why is she hooded? It is not understood much.

01:25What is true is that the first video we saw before, and that is confirmed by photographs,

01:30is Maria Corina with a black helmet, black jacket, with the hood up,

01:36and forced to walk with subjects in the same way, hooded.

01:43So, so far we do not really know where and what happened with Maria Corina Machado.

01:49We will wait for her to officially tell us, so that we can believe that she is really okay.

01:55It is our desire, not only as Venezuelans.

01:59You don't even think she is free, because the version circulated that she had been released.

02:09I would like to be able to give you, seriously, I swear to God,

02:12that I would love to be able to give you official information,

02:15but at the moment everything can be fake news, everything is rumor and rumor is not news.

02:22Let's wait for tonight to see if Maria Corina herself manifests herself

02:27and can say in a concrete way if she is okay or not.

02:30From the government of Nicolás Maduro, I risk saying this,

02:34what I can tell you is that it is already a presidential decree, and I reiterate this,

02:39to defend the revolution of Nicolás Maduro at all costs.

02:44That is, in any case, there are no guarantees, not even protection,

02:48for those who decide to oppose the revolution of Maduro.

02:52Natalia, how were the marches today? How were they?

02:59Look, really the marches were many of the high expectations on my part, really,

03:04because I thought that a misfortune was going to happen,

03:08as usually happens in these events so punctual and so marked in the history of Venezuelan politics.

03:15And nothing happened.

03:17And it's not because we expected something bad to happen,

03:21but because Venezuelans are used to something bad always happening,

03:25to something that always happens.

03:27Yes, yes, to someone showing up to the shots.

03:31Exactly. And absolutely nothing happened, thank God.

03:34The only moment of tension that there was really, to be honest,

03:38was when I arrived approximately 40 minutes later and I found out

03:41that the blue bench of María Corina Machado and Elmundo González had already been withdrawn.

03:47And they were withdrawn because they were right next to one of the meeting points

03:52where the officialism took place.

03:54So that was the intention of the officialism,

03:57that their route would meet the route of the opposition

04:01and then lock them up, limit them and sweep them away.

04:05Because there were subjects in civilian clothes, armed,

04:10who were willing to defend Maduro at all costs,

04:14and they swept away the opposition.

04:16All this in the context of photos that circulated yesterday,

04:19at least from international agencies like France Press,

04:22where you could see military men distributing weapons to the civilian population.

04:28It is correct. It is very sad and very painful to have to witness this,

04:35because never in the political history of my country has the government

04:40seen not only Chávez and his successor Maduro,

04:44but to see how they are so desperate to hold on to power.

04:50And tomorrow is a fact.

04:52Tomorrow, Maduro will be sworn in as president of Venezuela.

04:56The real question is, tomorrow, what will be Elmundo González's reaction?

05:01Will he arrive in Caracas as he did?

05:03These are the hopes that the Venezuelan still holds,

05:07and that will not disappear until...

05:10As much as he arrives and does not have any kind of real force,

05:15and the real force in Latin American countries is translated into military power,

05:20he will not arrive anywhere.

05:24That is the Venezuelan despair, as always.

05:27Now I am going to be honest.

05:30I am a journalist, and my position is not something political.

05:36I talk about what I see.

05:38Nobody is going to tell me stories.

05:40I go out on the street and talk about what I see.

05:42I don't talk about what I don't know.

05:44But I can say that the Venezuelan opposition,

05:46for many Venezuelans who did not support this opposition,

05:50do not believe in them.

05:52That is a reality that is also being experienced.

05:54Because let's remember history a little bit.

05:56If we go back to 2015, when the opposition of Maria Corina,

05:59that is, of the people who surround Maria Corina,

06:01won the National Assembly,

06:03the majority did not achieve changes,

06:05and the Venezuelan does not forget.

06:07Natalia, what time is Maduro's assumption tomorrow?

06:13Here, for example, here in Argentina,

06:16now it is 8.20, 8.20.

06:23Here in Venezuela it is 7.20 at night.

06:25Ah, an hour.

06:27Tomorrow, what time is the assumption?

06:29An hour ago.

06:32I would like to, but there is a matter of accreditation.

06:35I am going to try to enter the National Assembly

06:38and see what we achieve on behalf of Nicolás Maduro.

06:41In the world, González, we do not know anything

06:43because his letters are under the blanket.

06:45We still do not know what the pieces are.

06:47At what time is the assumption act,

06:49the assumption of Maduro?

06:51There is no time.

06:53There is no time yet.

06:55It's like a secret act.

06:57It's very strange.

07:01Yes, we have not yet set the agenda.

07:03It's a secret act.

07:05If there is something announced,

07:07it is the assumption time of a president.

07:11Well, not so secret,

07:13because since four days ago

07:15what they have said is that

07:17the preparations are ready

07:19to swear.

07:21Anyway, tomorrow I will be

07:23very early with you

07:25and see how far we get

07:27in a way that we are not accredited.

07:29See who we can interview

07:31and know as far as possible

07:33because the area is very militarized.

07:35Natalia,

07:37how is the Venezuelan economy today?

07:39Because there are different versions.

07:41From the government it is said

07:43that there is a growth of 9%,

07:45that the real economy is recovering.

07:47Now there are other numbers,

07:49especially the International Monetary Fund,

07:51which speak of an inflation

07:53that is close to a hyper.

07:55What is the reality?

07:59Look, really in Venezuela,

08:01as there in Argentina,

08:03there in Argentina is the blue,

08:05here in Venezuela is the parallel.

08:07The parallel here,

08:09that is, the blue here,

08:11is so high that I do not know

08:13where they got those statistics from there,

08:15but Venezuela is not economically

08:17comfortable. It is very complicated

08:19to change the black dollar,

08:21dollars, to the parallel

08:23because it is very high

08:25about what it really should be.

08:27So it's complicated.

08:29The economy, some economic things,

08:31other more expensive things,

08:33like everything, everything is achieved right now,

08:35let's be honest,

08:37not everyone has the purchasing power.

08:39Now it is not

08:41low, medium, high.

08:43Now it is low and high.

08:45Natalia, we thank you.

08:47It is something that is impossible.

08:49We thank you very much,

08:51we congratulate you for your work

08:53throughout the day here at A24.

08:55Thank you very much.
