00:00Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro denounced the unilateral coercive measures imposed by

00:05the Trump administration against the Venezuelan productivist system, condemning that these

00:10actions were requested by the Venezuelan extreme right wing.

00:14During the installation of the National Economic Council, President Maduro made a call to confront

00:20the economic war announcement promoted by the government of the United States and the

00:24Venezuelan extreme right wing.

00:26He also stated that Venezuelan migrants are victims of the sanctions and the economic

00:31war that forced them to emigrate.

00:34In this context, the Venezuelan head of state reiterated that in spite of the sanctions

00:39and economic blockade, the Venezuelan people have achieved in the first quarter of the

00:44year an economic growth of 4.5% in the Gross Domestic Product.

00:57In its opportunity, the criminal economic sanctions condemned by the entire Venezuelan

01:03public opinion were carefully requested by a few unspeakable individuals, who have pretended

01:09and believed that by causing economic harm, and consequently causing social harm to their

01:15country, our country which belongs to all Venezuelans, they are going to have a bed

01:37of roses to reach political power in Venezuela and become the saviors in some cases of national

01:48history.

01:54Since the history we have lived through has shown that it is a crime against an entire

01:58country, against an entire society to have requested or supported sanctions against

02:07the economy and the healthy functioning of the national productive mechanism.

02:19President Maduro also condemned the violations of human rights suffered by Venezuelan migrants

02:54The sanctions did with the Jews all Venezuelan migration as a migration of criminals.

03:00This is not a migration of criminals.

03:02I come out in defense of Venezuelan migrants.

03:05It is an economic migration of decent productive working people.

03:17President Maduro also pointed out that there is a market dollar that must be respected

03:22in order to establish the mechanisms to defend it.

03:30We have an old enemy, the war dollar.

03:33We are going to fight against all the mechanisms of robbery and speculation.

03:37There is a market dollar, some call it the official dollar.

03:41It is a mistake.

03:42It is not a dollar because we did not establish it.

03:45It was established by the market.

03:47It is a mistake.

03:48Those who love Venezuela do not stimulate under any aspect the war dollar.

03:55Those who love Venezuela respect the market dollar which we built in this year of fighting

04:01for the new exchange system.

04:02It is a battle over who can do more, the war dollar or the construction of a market dollar

04:07that benefits economic stability, growth, production, trade, and the satisfaction of

04:13the needs of the country.

04:15In El Salvador, Cristo Sala, a 25-year-old human rights organization, has issued a report

04:25deeming the deportation of Venezuelans from the United States to prisons in El Salvador

04:30as illegal.

04:31Moreover, they say the refusal by the administration of President Nayib Bukele to disclose the

04:36identity of the said prisoners is a violation of human rights according to international

04:42law which tantamount to a forced disappearance or kidnap.

04:47They argue that no person can be arrested in anonymity for it is a violation of a basic

04:54right like communicating with relatives and lawyers or receiving visitors while in prison.

05:06We stay in Venezuela where President Nicolás Maduro received the Arab Muslim community

05:11at the Miraflores Palace to celebrate the end of the holy month of Ramadan.

05:16The Venezuelan president emphasized during the meeting that the times of Ramadan have

05:20served to pray for the people of Palestine and its independence.

05:25He also stated that both peoples are united in the struggle for freedom and justice.

05:29For his part, the spiritual guide of the Caracas Mosque thanked the president for his firm

05:35opposition and support to the Palestinian cause during all times where the Zionist regime

05:42has criminally attacked the people of Gaza.

05:45The meeting was part of the closing of the holy month of Ramadan which represents one

05:49of the fundamental pillars of Islam.

06:00And we in Venezuela feel a great satisfaction that the Muslim community coexists and lives

06:06in peace in our country Venezuela.

06:13You are Venezuelans just like all of us and Venezuela will always have the doors open

06:17for the Muslim community, for the Muslim people everywhere to continue living together in

06:23holy peace and unity.
