00:00We are going live once more to Caracas, Venezuela as President Nicolas Maduro alongside the family of Mikelis Espinosa as the family has been reunited.
00:13We are seeing the images right now as the first combatant Celia is bringing Mikelis Espinosa after a long time of being separated back to the arms of her mother.
00:24These are very emotional images we are seeing right now on our screen as once again mother and grandmother of Mikelis Espinosa reunited with their now two-year-old baby after over a year of being separated.
00:38It is a great moral victory that has been achieved by the Bolivarian Revolution after the long denunciations and condemnations in the international arena
00:48and the people of Venezuela as a whole coming together alongside their authorities to demand the immediate return of Mikelis back to the arms of her family.
01:00We must remember that in this case, when they were in the States, when the mother of Mikelis surrendered to the immigration authorities,
01:10back then Mikelis was only seven months old and from that moment on they were separated in the United States.
01:19It was not until when they finally returned Mikelis, deported Mikelis back to Venezuela that when she was supposed to have her baby in her arms,
01:28she was taken from her arms again and the U.S. kidnapped, in a way, Mikelis Espinosa and sent her mother along back home.
