[00:02:49] Israel will not withdraw from
[00:02:59] information on the stories
[00:03:01] respectfully. In addition, in
[00:03:14] Mancora, the best surf destination in
[00:03:17] Colombia completes seven
[00:03:19] a doubt, let's say it is consistent with days of the deadly and devastating earthquake that marked the first week of President
[00:03:23] Abelardo de la Estrella's term. Nearly
[00:03:27] 300 people are dead and almost 200 are still
[00:03:30] missing, but the impact extends to more than
[00:03:33] 120,000 families, many of whom have had to take refuge
[00:03:37] in temporary shelters, with tens
[00:03:40] but also NATO members militarily, of thousands of damaged homes and other material
[00:03:42] losses, in many cases of personal belongings that
[00:03:46] now represent pain for the
[00:03:49] victims. De la Espiella said that he will soon
[00:03:52] present a reconstruction plan after various infrastructure
[00:03:56] was damaged and in some cases completely destroyed.
[00:04:07] relationship, with Russia, despite
[00:04:12] And yes, a week has passed since the earthquake in Colombia. Some data according to the latest balance
[00:04:16] to dimension the tragedy: five departmental
[00:04:19] capitals were put on red alert due to the damage. The official
[00:04:23] death toll dropped for the second time and stands at
[00:04:26] 287, 287 fatal
[00:04:30] victims, down from 294
[00:04:33] reported on Saturday. This adjustment occurred once two reports
[00:04:37] were consolidated, a complex count that
[00:04:40] took days to unify among the
[00:04:43] 472 affected municipalities. The national
[00:04:46] unit for disaster risk management
[00:04:49] counts 127,608
[00:04:53] damaged homes, 26,392
[00:04:57] destroyed, and 197 buildings.
[00:05:00] In addition, more than 120,000 families
[00:05:03] are affected. There are at least 4,147
[00:05:07] injured and more than 190 people who still
[00:05:10] have not been located. Also affected
[00:05:13] were more than 300 health
[00:05:17] centers, more than 3,200 educational
[00:05:19] centers, and more than 4,000 community centers,
[00:05:23] as well as 410 roads, 95
[00:05:26] aqueducts, 48 vehicular
[00:05:29] bridges, 13 pedestrian bridges, and five
[00:05:33] airports. Along with donations from several countries, the World
[00:05:36] Bank made available 200 million dollars to
[00:05:39] support the immediate response and recovery. This
[00:05:43] devastating earthquake occurred during the first week of the new President
[00:05:47] Abelardo de la Espiella's government.
[00:05:50] Far from the coldness of the numbers, citizens continue to fight
[00:05:54] to recover something of what was lost, even more so
[00:05:58] when it comes to the memories of a lifetime
[00:06:01] shared with a loved one who may no longer
[00:06:04] be there. Wilson Barco spoke in Cali with a colleague in such a
[00:06:08] painful and special moment.
[00:06:13] Perhaps this will be the most painful report I have
[00:06:16] done. I love you because you are my
[00:06:19] teacher, you know
[00:06:21] that.
[00:06:28] This is what I have recovered from my house, and for
[00:06:32] no one is this important,
[00:06:34] only for me, the photos of my childhood, the photos
[00:06:37] of my youth, the photos with my
[00:06:41] father.
[00:06:44] This has unique value for us, look
[00:06:47] at this, look at this, my
[00:06:51] father, brother, playing his guitar, my
[00:06:54] childhood.
[00:06:57] This has enormous value and I think
[00:07:00] it's not just about picking up the asphalt, Wilson, in the
[00:07:03] memories, because for the people who lost everything here, this is the only thing they have, you
[00:07:07] understand?
[00:07:10] Meanwhile, in Manizales, another of the most impacted cities by
[00:07:13] the earthquake in the department of Caldas, people remain in shelter
[00:07:16] while they try to rebuild their lives, and after
[00:07:20] losing loved ones, their homes and in some cases even their means
[00:07:24] of subsistence, the needs are many, but
[00:07:28] so is the willingness to support them from different
[00:07:31] fronts. This is the report that our special envoy Fernando
[00:07:35] Ramos sent us from the
[00:07:36] area.
[00:07:40] Have you ever wondered
[00:07:42] what it's like to lose the security of a roof, the warmth
[00:07:46] of your own room, to have
[00:07:49] everyone around you, your family, your friends, and suddenly
[00:07:53] lose everything? Well, these people are
[00:07:56] experiencing that, precisely after the earthquake recorded in
[00:08:00] Colombia last Monday. It's very
[00:08:03] difficult, honestly very difficult because we always think we'll never
[00:08:06] lose things, right? And that's something you don't
[00:08:10] expect. It was something sudden and unexpected, but from it we learn
[00:08:14] a lot that life is only a second. Here in the city of Manizales
[00:08:17] there are nearly 500
[00:08:21] affected people, and in this coliseum there are at least
[00:08:25] 47 families who are being attended to in their
[00:08:28] basic needs. Here families arrive with their dogs,
[00:08:32] their cats, their companion animals. Some people come
[00:08:35] alone, there are children, there are elderly people, and what
[00:08:39] we provide here, in addition to providing a place to sleep,
[00:08:43] is food, health. We have a doctor
[00:08:46] here permanently, where we are making a tour trying
[00:08:50] to improve the well-being of people. In this type of
[00:08:52] emergency, not only are supplies,
[00:08:56] food, personal hygiene items, medicines needed, but perhaps something
[00:08:59] deeper, affection. And this is
[00:09:03] a mobile clinic to care for people who have been victims
[00:09:07] of this earthquake. Carlos, you
[00:09:10] are here because people need more than food
[00:09:14] and shelter, they need affection, isn't that
[00:09:16] right? It's true, Fernando, what we mean is that these primary
[00:09:20] needs are very important: shelter, food, water, but
[00:09:24] where is the emotional nourishment? There are people who are
[00:09:27] devastated, homeless, with nothing, and no matter how many times
[00:09:31] they want to eat, sometimes they get food and they don't want it, they want a
[00:09:34] hug. Music heals wounds
[00:09:37] and this group knows it, and that's
[00:09:39] why they have come voluntarily to this shelter
[00:09:43] to give these families a moment of joy,
[00:09:47] even if only for a short time.
[00:09:53] We have to give a little because during the pandemic we were artists who went out into
[00:09:56] the streets and many of these people who are here victims
[00:09:59] supported us, that is, we are giving back this without
[00:10:03] any cost. We have to cheer up the souls of people, music lightens the
[00:10:06] load.
[00:10:11] At least one or two months
[00:10:15] these people will be in shelters, in Manizales, in Pereira, in
[00:10:18] Cali, Buenaventura and Quibdó in Chocó, the
[00:10:21] regions most affected by the earthquake. Then they will have
[00:10:25] to go out and rebuild their lives. Will they
[00:10:28] succeed? Only time will tell. For
[00:10:31] CNN, Fernando Ramos, Manizales, Colombia.
[00:10:44] US Special Envoy Jared Kushner stated that there could be
[00:10:48] progress in Gaza very soon if both sides cooperate, including Hamas
[00:10:51] voluntarily surrendering its weapons in the next
[00:10:55] 60 to 90 days, which would mean eliminating a
[00:10:58] huge threat to Israel's security. However, he stated
[00:11:02] in an interview with Fox News after his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister
[00:11:05] Netanyahu that the United
[00:11:08] States would support further military actions by Israel if
[00:11:11] Hamas does not comply with disarmament. Meanwhile,
[00:11:15] from Tehran, they insist that the United States has not won the war and
[00:11:18] that control of the Strait of Hormuz remains in Iranian
[00:11:21] hands, as Sale Mergi reports below from
[00:11:25] Jerusalem:
[00:11:28] After the memorandum of understanding signed exactly two
[00:11:31] months ago between Iran and the United States
[00:11:35] expires today, they enter a new, more uncertain phase, but with the same
[00:11:38] warnings, threats, and proclamations. Today, the Iranian
[00:11:42] regime has responded to President Trump by stating, on the one
[00:11:46] hand, that it has control of the Strait of Hormuz, and on the other,
[00:11:50] according to the words of the Iranian chief negotiator and president of the
[00:11:53] parliament, Mohamed Kalibaf, that the victory of the
[00:11:56] war belongs to Iran and, therefore, he says, its
[00:12:00] enemies, the United States and Israel, did not achieve their
[00:12:04] objectives during the war they launched last
[00:12:08] February 28th. Meanwhile, Iran confirms that
[00:12:11] negotiations with Oman on the management of the
[00:12:14] Strait of Hormuz continue. However, they recognize that these
[00:12:18] are complex negotiations. Oman, a country
[00:12:20] that today once again saw President
[00:12:24] Trump threaten to attack it if, he says,
[00:12:27] it stands in his way regarding his demands,
[00:12:30] basically concerning the Strait of Hormuz.
[00:12:34] In all this, Trump's special envoy, his son-in-law, Jared
[00:12:38] Kushner, is currently in Israel, after completing
[00:12:42] a long meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
[00:12:44] Netanyahu, after also meeting with the leaders of
[00:12:48] Hamas and the mediators Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey in
[00:12:51] Egypt. The objective is the same: to promote
[00:12:55] the peace plan for the Gaza Strip. In the meeting with
[00:12:59] Netanyahu, Kushner asked him to do everything
[00:13:02] possible to advance the peace plan, and also to ensure
[00:13:06] there are no obstacles to it. They have agreed, according
[00:13:10] to various sources, that
[00:13:14] the Gaza Strip until Hamas
[00:13:17] fully accepts
[00:13:20] disarmament. Israel states that it will continue to act militarily
[00:13:24] to, it says, thwart immediate
[00:13:27] threats. Kushner's objective is clear: that the Gaza
[00:13:31] front does not flare up
[00:13:34] again. For CNN, Sale Mergy,

[00:13:41] It's time for a break, and when we return we will talk about Donald Trump's
[00:13:44] surprising shift in policy towards his ally South
[00:13:48] Korea by announcing the reduction of joint military exercises,
[00:13:51] and later the presidential campaign
[00:13:55] in Brazil officially begins, in which President Luis
[00:13:58] Inácio Lula da Silva will seek
[00:14:01] re-election against his rival, the right-wing senator Flavio Bolsonaro, son
[00:14:04] of former President Jair
[00:14:06] Bolsonaro.

[00:17:30] announced that his country will reduce military exercises with its ally
[00:17:34] South Korea. As reasons, Trump cited his good relationship with North
[00:17:38] Korean leader Kim Jong-un, as well as Seoul's
[00:17:41] lack of help with Iran. And Ione Molinares now reports from
[00:17:45] Washington on the possible repercussions and
[00:17:48] reaction to the President's statements. Hours before these
[00:17:52] military exercises with South
[00:17:54] Korea began, which last approximately
[00:17:58] 10 days, the president announced
[00:18:01] through social media
[00:18:05] that he had ordered
[00:18:08] a substantial reduction of these joint military
[00:18:12] exercises with South Korea, partly stating that it had to do
[00:18:15] with the very good relationship Trump has with the North Korean
[00:18:19] leader, Kim Jong Un, but also because he says that these
[00:18:23] military exercises are very expensive for a country that does not recognize their
[00:18:27] importance, according to the president, and that these military exercises
[00:18:31] send a hostile message to a country
[00:18:34] like North Korea that has treated him
[00:18:38] the Oval Office, the president also told the story of a conversation
[00:18:42] he had with the president of South Korea, after he had
[00:18:46] asked him, had asked him to assist in the war
[00:18:50] in the war that the United States is waging in
[00:18:53] Iran, and this was the
[00:18:54] account.
[00:18:58] He has always treated me with great respect and we have met on numerous
[00:19:01] occasions, actually on two main occasions, we have spoken and
[00:19:05] spent time together. I understand him, he understands me, they
[00:19:08] are playing war games and I get along with
[00:19:11] him. These exercises,
[00:19:15] which are carried out frequently, were planned
[00:19:18] to last 10 days on this occasion, and among
[00:19:22] other traditional matters, these joint maneuvers were going to address
[00:19:25] anti-drone issues, as well as cyberattack exercises and
[00:19:29] also GPS interception, in addition to the
[00:19:32] presence of some 18,000 South
[00:19:36] Korean soldiers. The opposition here in Congress is
[00:19:40] concerned. The Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs Committee
[00:19:43] issued a statement, upset by what they say
[00:19:47] is a danger to international interests and
[00:19:51] especially to the interests of the United States in that region,
[00:19:54] that these types of military maneuvers be reduced.
[00:19:57] The war that Trump chose in Iran is failing
[00:20:01] so badly that he is now reducing joint exercises
[00:20:05] with a 70-year ally.
[00:20:07] Hours before they began, because South Korea did not want to help in his illegal
[00:20:11] war effort. Our alliance with South Korea makes
[00:20:14] the United States safer and Trump is undermining
[00:20:17] it.
[00:20:20] Well, it is not clear how the opposition can make its displeasure
[00:20:23] heard, although there are those who are concerned that this
[00:20:27] maneuver could affect the interests of the United States in the
[00:20:31] region, contain rivals such as North
[00:20:34] Korea itself and China and, especially,
[00:20:38] the leadership that the United States can continue to maintain
[00:20:42] in that region. Leonel Molinares, CNN,
[00:20:44] Washington.
[00:20:47] The contradictions of President Trump no longer surprise many, but his
[00:20:51] threatening attitude to exert pressure on his allies, while
[00:20:55] appearing affable and cordial with those who could be considered
[00:20:58] his adversaries, remains puzzling. A foreign
[00:21:02] policy that causes uncertainty, sometimes
[00:21:05] open rejection among his allies, while it does not seem
[00:21:08] to yield any fruit in his relations with enemies. We analyze
[00:21:12] the effects of this policy with Professor Héctor Herrera, head
[00:21:16] of the Anáhuac Global Analysis Observatory at the university
[00:21:20] of the same name, the Anáhuac University in Mexico
[00:21:23] City. Welcome to
[00:21:26] Panorama Mundial, Professor, thank you for being with us. Something that strikes
[00:21:30] me about the very flattering comments Trump made today about
[00:21:33] Kim Jong-un is that the President seems to have forgotten or
[00:21:37] ignores that Tehran collaborated in the development of
[00:21:40] missile technology in the 90s with Iran, the very
[00:21:44] country with which the United States is now at war.
[00:21:47] Professor, what does this tell us about
[00:21:51] the way the US President thinks, and how do you explain
[00:21:54] this apparent contradiction? Welcome and good evening. Hello
[00:21:58] Rafael, good evening, thank you for the space. Indeed,
[00:22:02] it seems like a contradiction, two different ways of handling a case
[00:22:05] that appears similar. In the specific case of Iran, what we see is
[00:22:09] a softening of measures, particularly, we saw it especially
[00:22:13] with the end of the 60-day deadline that the United States and Iran had
[00:22:17] signed, and therefore a more belligerent rhetoric. Much more
[00:22:20] aggressive, even the proposal to bomb Oman if
[00:22:24] Oman assisted Iran awakens a much more aggressive reaction,
[00:22:27] and with North Korea it seems a completely different case
[00:22:31] in that he tells us that there is good
[00:22:34] communication with the North Korean president, that he will resolve
[00:22:38] it through dialogue and that the three meetings they have had have been very
[00:22:41] productive. The truth is that we also have a United States that
[00:22:45] arrives at a different scenario with North Korea. The conflict with Iran
[00:22:48] also changes the United States' position on the global board,
[00:22:52] and furthermore, North Korea is a very close ally of Russia and China,
[00:22:56] so the United States also knows that it is a conflict that involves these
[00:23:00] actors much more directly. I would say that it is a
[00:23:03] contradiction if we analyze these two cases, Iran and North
[00:23:07] Korea, but it does not seem like a contradiction, especially with the first
[00:23:10] version of Donald Trump that we knew in 2018 and 2019, who
[00:23:14] believed that through dialogue and a personal relationship with Kim
[00:23:17] Jong Un he would be able to resolve the conflict. No, in that sense, it seems
[00:23:21] very consistent with his first administration, also with the
[00:23:24] "Make America Great Again" discourse within the United States of no more military
[00:23:28] interventionism and focusing on internal affairs. Yes,
[00:23:31] certainly, the contradiction is very open and
[00:23:35] very clear, and I believe that the issue goes
[00:23:39] further. Today it was South Korea and Oman. Since he
[00:23:42] returned to power, Canada, Mexico and other countries have been in the
[00:23:46] sights of Donald Trump. What has been the impact, Professor, of
[00:23:50] this policy of going against allied countries that have stood
[00:23:53] the test of time and favoring nations governed by
[00:23:57] authoritarian regimes, as we had discussed
[00:24:00] previously, North Korea and well, I would also like
[00:24:04] to include Saudi Arabia, right? Without
[00:24:09] the "Make America Great Again" discourse and with which he won the election in the first
[00:24:13] campaign, a less interventionist United States that
[00:24:16] at the same time shares its responsibilities with traditional
[00:24:20] allies. Trump had been very critical of the abuse that
[00:24:23] the United States supposedly received from traditional allies like
[00:24:27] Mexico and Canada economically,
[00:24:30] also the case of South Korea and Japan against the case
[00:24:34] of North Korea. So, in those terms, he recovers somewhat
[00:24:37] this idea of shared responsibility, of assuming
[00:24:41] the burden so that the United States is not the only one that
[00:24:44] bears the military costs, but of course this
[00:24:48] has left the United States much more isolated.
[00:24:50] There has been no rapprochement with traditional enemies,
[00:24:53] that is, with Iran there is still a conflictive
[00:24:57] the good personal chemistry between Putin and Trump, we have not seen a
[00:25:01] very close relationship either, and with China it has been much more cordial, and
[00:25:05] at the same time it causes, in the case of traditional allies, a strong
[00:25:09] distancing, a NATO that feels abandoned on the European
[00:25:12] front, which has even decided to act more unilaterally,
[00:25:15] avoiding the United States, and a North
[00:25:19] America that is uncertain economically. I would say that this
[00:25:22] completely weakens the United States because it is a very erratic policy that
[00:25:26] punishes traditional enemies and allies alike and leaves
[00:25:30] the United States in a very isolated position in a context of
[00:25:33] multiple international rivalry with many poles
[00:25:36] emerging economically, politically, and militarily. Certainly, Professor,
[00:25:39] here I want to return to something that
[00:25:43] we were discussing at the beginning, the president said today that the United
[00:25:47] States has 39,000 soldiers in South Korea and
[00:25:50] suggested that because the Asian
[00:25:53] country refused to support Washington's war in Iran,
[00:25:56] his government could withdraw those soldiers,
[00:26:00] leaving the South Koreans at the mercy of Kim Jong-un and his
[00:26:02] military arsenal. It would seem, Professor,
[00:26:06] here I want to ask for your opinion, it would seem that the president
[00:26:09] is acting out of spite and not based
[00:26:12] on a foreign policy based on geopolitics. What do his statements
[00:26:16] today tell us? I completely agree with your vision, Rafael.
[00:26:19] In fact, it is a statement that John Bolton, who was Trump's security
[00:26:23] advisor in his first administration, also observed at the time.
[00:26:27] He said: Donald Trump believes that
[00:26:30] diplomacy operates like New York real estate, that it is enough to
[00:26:33] threaten, to show strength to get better prices, that
[00:26:37] it is personal relationships of friendship that change
[00:26:40] international politics, and he does not understand that fundamentally states are not
[00:26:44] governed by personal relationships or friendship, there are no friends or enemies
[00:26:47] in the international arena, but there are interests that can
[00:26:51] generate allies, particularly rival actors, and it seems
[00:26:55] that Trump does not understand that logic of international politics, unlike
[00:26:59] Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping, for example, who do act
[00:27:03] based on interests. That is why the failure of the Alaska summit, in which
[00:27:06] Trump wanted to achieve with a brief conversation with Putin, an exchange in
[00:27:10] Ukraine, that is also why the failure of the first meeting with
[00:27:13] Kim in 2018 in Singapore, where personal
[00:27:17] relationship did not modify the interests of North
[00:27:20] Korea, pardon me, and its nuclear program. So, in that logic,
[00:27:24] we have a politician who acts based on personal interests, on
[00:27:27] emotions, more under the logic of creating ties
[00:27:30] that will change international politics than concrete interests
[00:27:34] that guide and move international relations. Certainly, Professor,
[00:27:38] unfortunately, we are running out of time. I want to thank
[00:27:42] you for being with us on the program, Professor Héctor Herrera,
[00:27:45] head of the Anáhuac Global Analysis Observatory
[00:27:51] Mexico City. Thank you, Professor, good evening. Thank
[00:27:54] you very much, good evening, my pleasure. Well, we'll take another break and be back.
