[00:01:01] by more than [00:01:11] and in all ways, in the history of [00:01:37] midterm elections will be where the [00:02:42] it's the 250th anniversary of [00:04:05] about that, common sense more than [00:04:13] degree of grand cross from [00:05:01] strong that complexity that it now [00:05:05] has regionally, is a strength, is a [00:05:08] fortress. [00:05:21] We are CNN, the world leader in news. [00:05:49] night, today we follow the [00:05:53] visit of Marco Rubio, the Secretary of State of the United States, as we [00:05:56] started yesterday in Colombia, his visit in [00:05:59] Colombia, of course today in Ecuador with President [00:06:02] Daniel Oboa, tomorrow in Peru [00:06:06] with Keiko Fujimori, but there is a [00:06:09] peculiarity today, we are going to be talking eh precisely about this. [00:06:14] the Secretary of State of the United States there in Ecuador [00:06:17] and at the same time we are waiting for [00:06:21] this event in Dallas of President [00:06:23] Donald Trump heading to the midterm elections [00:06:26] that they have called the [00:06:30] Trumpalisa Trumpalusa they say there in Dallas, of course [00:06:33] we will be live with the message from President Donald Trump [00:06:37] to see what he has to say, obviously it is an event that is [00:06:40] trying to straighten a little the. course if possible, [00:06:44] Trump as a factor precisely of that course of what the [00:06:49] chamber will be renewed on November 3, the House of Representatives [00:06:53] completely eh of course and 35 [00:06:57] seats in the Senate eh it is [00:07:00] very very interesting in the area of the House of [00:07:03] Representatives there is a lot of chance for the Democrats to take the [00:07:06] majority, in the Senate it is not so, [00:07:10] although we also have to see... eh district by [00:07:13] district, eh, there are some this, for example, Texas [00:07:17] and Iowa, which are normally Republican [00:07:21] that now they have put them here they say tous up, no, which is [00:07:25] practically a coin toss and it is, that is a very bad sign for the Republicans [00:07:28] because it is supposed that they are bastions that they would not have trouble [00:07:31] retaining, but already in the analysis [00:07:34] there begins to be a trend in which it could turn around to one [00:07:38] side or the other, there is no guarantee eh, [00:07:42] also this is the reorganization not of [00:07:45] the electoral maps in Texas and then in California [00:07:48] looking to have eh more seats with this [00:07:52] reorganization, etcetera, it is very very interesting, but well, all [00:07:56] that is part of what will be the coverage on November 3 here [00:07:59] on cnn in Spanish [00:08:02] of eh the midterm elections and I repeat the entire House of [00:08:06] Representatives and 45 eh [00:08:09] pardon 35 Senate seats but today. today [00:08:12] let's see what Trump has to say, what Trump has to say that can motivate that [00:08:16] electorate to give support to the Republicans, it would completely change the [00:08:20] history of Trump's government eh, if the Democrats keep the House of Representatives and the [00:08:23] Senate, Trump's last two years will be very [00:08:27] different, but anyway, let's start if you agree with what [00:08:31] I already mentioned, the visit of Secretary of State Marcos Rubio [00:08:34] to Ecuador, we start [00:08:36] then. [00:09:15] Mr. Secretary of State, on behalf of the Ecuadorian people from [00:09:19] Quito from Quito after receiving the national [00:09:22] order of merit in the [00:09:25] the hands of the President of Ecuador Daniela, the Secretary of State of the United [00:09:29] States Marcos Rubio offered 45 million additional [00:09:33] dollars to reinforce security in Ecuador. After the [00:09:37] meeting, Rubio said that Washington is working more and more with the Ecuadorian [00:09:40] government in terms of fighting crime, drug trafficking, organized [00:09:44] crime, as he did yesterday in Colombia, eh, Rubio [00:09:48] highlighted the rapprochement in diplomatic relations and joint [00:09:56] improved so much in recent years, but [00:09:58] specifically in the last three or four years, the cooperation we have in [00:10:02] terms of security and in terms of prosperity, because both issues are [00:10:06] important, but the primary function of any government is [00:10:10] the security of its people and when they see when there are threats against [00:10:14] that security, they must [00:10:15] face it. [00:10:19] Well, as you already heard, security and as we already told you, security is a [00:10:22] dominant issue of the tour of... the Secretary of State for Latin [00:10:26] America, especially Colombia and Ecuador, [00:10:29] no, in Peru yes, security is an issue, but there [00:10:33] also China, China will be a very important [00:10:36] issue, in addition to the resources eh that Rubio [00:10:40] announced in Ecuador, the designation of the [00:10:43] Tiguerones as a foreign terrorist organization was added, so [00:10:47] they already designated the Tiguerones as a terrorist [00:10:49] group, they join of course those that had already been [00:10:53] assigned, the Choneros, the Lobos. and the Chone Killers, the [00:10:57] other three Ecuadorian gangs that the United States already considers terrorist organizations, but [00:11:00] for Rubio, these groups have capabilities similar to those of an [00:11:04] army, this decision comes at a critical [00:11:07] moment, critical for the country, Ecuador was considered one of the [00:11:10] relatively safest countries in the [00:11:13] region, but last year it registered [00:11:16] 9,216 violent deaths with a homicide [00:11:19] rate of 51 per 100,000 [00:11:22] inhabitants, which exceeds [00:11:26] double, listen to what I am telling you, eh, by more than double to countries [00:11:30] like Colombia or Mexico, [00:11:34] imagine the level of violence, homicide [00:11:37] rate of 51 per 100,000 inhabitants, let's see what [00:11:41] President Daniel Noboa says, well he assures that his strategy is weakening [00:11:45] the gangs, that's what Noboa says, according to [00:11:49] official figures, homicides decreased 8% [00:11:52] between January and July of this year. Obviously the [00:11:56] comparison is against the period of 2025, [00:12:00] 8%, if you think about it, it's very little for all the [00:12:03] collaboration and [00:12:06] this eh strategy that the president himself [00:12:09] Daniel is using [00:12:12] no eh beyond homicides, of course there is another silent [00:12:15] crisis, no it doesn't mean that it is [00:12:19] less harmful, no according to the high commissioner, this is where [00:12:22] what I am telling you is reflected, the consequences of this violence. According to the [00:12:26] UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the Ombudsman's [00:12:29] Office, more than 300,000 people [00:12:33] have been forced to leave their homes in the last 3 years. [00:12:36] That is, it is an internal forced [00:12:39] displacement, there are 3000 people who have had to leave, I don't know, for example from [00:12:43] Guayaquil, to Quito, from Esmeraldas, that is, they [00:12:46] have had to move from their cities to another place, for different [00:12:50] reasons, we are not talking about homicides, but about [00:12:53] threats, extortion. recruitment that also [00:12:57] occurs, criminal recruitment, or the assassination [00:13:00] of family members, 300,000 people forced to [00:13:04] displace, and while violence spreads on land, the [00:13:07] fight against drug trafficking continues, it continues, I tell you it continues [00:13:11] because it has been a while since it started, it has moved to the Pacific, [00:13:14] not with the boats, in less than two weeks the United States has [00:13:18] reported the sinking of six Ecuadorian vessels in [00:13:22] operations that supposedly target [00:13:25] drug trafficking, the most recent case was a [00:13:28] fishing boat, the fishing boat Don Rufo, the Southern [00:13:31] Command said that the vessel was supposedly used as a refueling [00:13:35] point for fuel for [00:13:39] operations linked to the Choneros, the crew members were obviously [00:13:43] arrested, but this has generated a lot of controversy, I'm going to explain [00:13:46] why after the crew members and [00:13:49] family members denied those links and [00:13:53] some detainees were released by judicial decisions, not a few [00:13:56] eh, I'm going to tell you that at least [00:13:59] 28 of the crew members who have been detained from these [00:14:03] alleged drug boats 28, according to the decision of a judge, there [00:14:06] were not enough elements to say that they were linked to [00:14:10] drug trafficking, others were also released [00:14:14] but eh yes with the caveat that they [00:14:18] are eh what is it called on conditional [00:14:21] release eh that makes a difference, but look, 28 [00:14:25] at least the judge says no, there are no elements here that prove that they may have a link with [00:14:28] drug trafficking, despite this, Rubio [00:14:32] defended the operations, he said that the objectives are decided [00:14:36] case by case, it is [00:14:38] a very complicated panorama, I a long time ago, I'm [00:14:41] talking about 2022, I say a long time ago because I was living today, [00:14:45] no, in 2022, I already spoke about [00:14:49] this issue with the then Ecuadorian president Guillermo [00:14:52] Lazo, I told him, I anticipated to... the future that Ecuador [00:14:55] lives today, making a comparison with the experience that I as a Mexican have of my [00:14:59] country and how far it could go, telling him if they were not able to fix it, [00:15:03] if they needed help, I tell you something, at that [00:15:06] moment President Guillermo Lazo was very [00:15:08] transparent, [00:15:11] eh, he was very clear, I don't know if many took his [00:15:14] comment as innocent, but at least [00:15:18] it landed in a reality that today [00:15:21] is precisely materialized in the help of the United States in [00:15:25] that moment Guillermo Lazo who was at the Summit of the Americas that was held in Los [00:15:28] Angeles California, Guillermo Lazo already spoke of telling the then [00:15:32] president who was Joe Biden to [00:15:35] develop a plan developed. an Ecuador plan similar to Plan [00:15:39] Colombia because I was saying to me, "March," he told me, "we can't [00:15:42] do it alone," but well, here it is, that's how [00:15:45] he told me, an Ecuador plan like the [00:15:49] Colombia plan, you said it, you got ahead of me, because I will tell [00:15:52] President Biden of the United States, "Look, [00:15:55] just like with Colombia there's a Plan Colombia, we need a Plan Ecuador, [00:15:59] because it's not possible for a small country to pay the bill [00:16:03] alone, a country that tries to prevent its territory from being used for [00:16:07] drug trafficking, because it's also protecting children and young people in [00:16:11] the United States that we receive support, but it's not [00:16:14] enough, we need more forceful [00:16:16] support." [00:16:20] He already said it, former president Guillermo Lazo already said it, it is a reality [00:16:24] today, that call for help at that moment in the Biden administration, 4 years [00:16:28] later, it is still valid, but it is already real, [00:16:31] no, that is, the support it has today has no [00:16:35] comparison, now... Ecuador, Ecuador cannot do it, no, but [00:16:39] it also cannot be accompanied, neither, I mean because the [00:16:43] figures are not as encouraging as one would expect with so much coordination [00:16:47] and operation from the United States government with the government [00:17:29] I asked, I think it makes a lot of sense, we [00:17:33] already heard former president Lazo what he told me at the time, well, [00:17:37] he was very transparent or very innocent but he accepted that we cannot [00:17:40] do it alone, [00:17:42] but listen, excuse me Don Luis, I'm being told that President [00:17:46] Donald Trump is starting his speech in [00:17:48] Dallas, yes, sorry, I have to interrupt this [00:17:52] moment Don Luis, we'll coordinate later, let's hear what Donald [00:18:10] the first for any political party, two months ago [00:18:14] we came together to celebrate one of the most glorious days in history, [00:18:19] the creation of [00:18:22] independence, [00:18:27] and in 1776 our founding [00:18:31] patriots lit the flame of liberty in [00:18:35] Philadelphia at a time that... that as [00:18:39] now we gather in the great state of Texas [00:18:41] and [00:18:49] by the way I have to boast that it is a state that I won three [00:18:52] times with an overwhelming majority, [00:18:56] the largest number of [00:18:58] votes, [00:19:01] the largest number of votes in history, in Texas [00:19:04] politics. [00:19:08] and we all have that flame lit [00:19:12] and we love the state, and we love our country, but [00:19:16] what an honor to be here in Texas, what a wonderful place, [00:19:20] what a place, I love it, [00:19:23] with your support we will make our country strong, safer, [00:19:27] freer and greater than it has ever [00:19:30] been, that's what is happening, that's what is [00:19:34] happening, I would like the news [00:20:07] of people standing outside, if someone [00:20:10] wants to give them their seats so they can come in, they are [00:20:14] standing outside, some of them would like to [00:20:17] volunteer to give them a chair, no, I didn't [00:20:20] think so, we have an incredible response, they love our [00:20:24] country, they love what we are doing, in 55 days Americans [00:20:27] will go to the polls in one of the most important elections in the history of [00:20:31] our country, your vote will decide if our country [00:20:34] stumbles at the start. of the next [00:20:38] 250 years or rises [00:20:41] to heights never reached and never looks [00:20:44] back. [00:20:49] We. we have the future in [00:20:53] our hands, we just have to remove the radical Democrats, if [00:20:57] they fall into their hands, the next decades our [00:21:00] country will return to try to get back on its feet, [00:21:03] it will be a tragedy and then we will leave [00:21:06] the world in a [00:21:09] terrible situation and that will last for many, many [00:21:13] decades. [00:21:28] The decision in this election is very simple, the options are [00:21:32] simple, the Democrats ask you to vote for their leftist [00:21:35] agenda that has never worked, that destroyed your finances [00:21:38] and 4 years of [00:21:41] disaster of death under the [00:21:44] government of Joe Biden, the sleepy, sleepy [00:21:48] Joe Biden and I'm going to. ask you to let me complete [00:21:51] this work with these wonderful years, the presidency has never seen [00:21:55] anything like it, these have been the two presidential years, financial level [00:22:01] the [00:22:01] presidency, [00:22:06] and we are going to spend another two years and [00:22:09] we will enter a leadership of 250 [00:22:13] years that has never had that possibility, [00:22:17] in these two years we have more money that has been invested from outside, [00:22:20] foreign countries and foreign companies, [00:22:24] more than 2000 [00:22:27] 5 seven times more than any other country, [00:22:31] 20 billion dollars, more on [00:22:33] top, remember that before he said [00:22:37] 19.2, but now it's more than [00:22:39] 20, in less than 2 years, [00:22:43] very, less than 2 years, when the 2 [00:22:46] years come, maybe we will reach 25 billion in... invested [00:22:51] here, it's a record, I want [00:22:53] to tell you, [00:22:57] think about that, more than 20 billion, the [00:23:00] record is another foreign [00:23:03] country that perhaps you know, the country I know, the [00:23:07] head of that country will come to the White House in two weeks, [00:23:11] 3 billion compared to 20 billion, but [00:23:15] the 20 billion after 2 years will still be almost 23, [00:23:18] 24, 25, no one has ever seen anything like it [00:23:22] and probably will never happen again, [00:23:26] I want you to remember me in four or five years when this country [00:23:29] remembers, he says I was the one who started it all, [00:23:32] I was the one who started it all, [00:23:48] yes, look who we have. here in the front row, look at those who [00:23:52] are in the front row, wow, that's [00:23:56] wonderful, we have the best women of [00:23:59] North Carolina, they are here [00:24:01] too, [00:24:04] they have been to 217 rallies, they are [00:24:07] beautiful, they have wonderful husbands, but you never see the [00:24:10] husbands, I think you are driving [00:24:14] your husbands crazy, they have supported [00:24:17] me from the beginning, I think they like me. [00:24:59] 1400 and that's why we have the best immigration figures, we [00:25:03] stopped it cold, this was a disaster, it was destroying [00:25:07] our country, we'll talk about that, when I ran the [00:25:10] Republicans always do very well, we won the presidency three [00:25:13] times, [00:25:23] Now you've noticed that many people are on the other side, they are [00:25:26] recognizing that too, but that's a very [00:25:29] good way to do it, but we won big [00:25:33] also we won everything, because what I was saying [00:25:36] was on the ballot and everyone came and and [00:25:40] it went very well with the senators and with the congressmen, but for some reason when a [00:25:43] president wins, even if he is a very very good president, a [00:25:47] wonderful president, there are not many of them, they do [00:25:51] not win the midterm elections and no one [00:25:54] knows why, two of [00:25:56] 25 campaigns, we will change that, there is no [00:26:00] reason for that to happen, there is no reason. there is no [00:26:03] reason, that is something very profound at a [00:26:07] psychological level, that they have to explain to me somehow, I have asked people, [00:26:10] why does that happen, if one has for example a president who is doing a very good [00:26:14] job, I don't, I don't think anyone has had two years like me, everyone [00:26:17] in the world is recognizing it, other countries are failing, failing [00:26:21] and they are failed countries, but I don't know why what [00:26:25] we are seeing, no president, neither Democrat nor [00:26:29] Republican ever wins the midterm elections, we have... [00:27:23] the fake news, the pundits, the left-wing communists say whatever [00:27:27] to try to stop us, but in this lesson, all that [00:27:31] matters. is that we are [00:27:34] united, we are together and what we [00:27:37] say matters, that's what matters [00:27:40] most, and on November [00:27:44] 3, [00:27:46] the majority of Americans will stand up and continue [00:27:50] to make America great again and we will make our voices [00:27:53] heard perhaps as never [00:27:56] before, that is the beautiful challenge that midterm [00:28:00] elections do not have to be won by the president, [00:28:04] but we are going to change that and we are going to make it more and more important, a more [00:28:07] important moment for our country and for the presidency, [00:28:11] this is something very special that we have to [00:28:13] do, [00:28:17] and we have a short period of time and we have 35 [00:28:21] contests, all of them count, we have [00:28:24] 35 that can be [00:28:28] called swing states, as we had [00:28:31] seven states that won all seven, [00:28:33] right, [00:28:37] now I say the following, not that [00:28:40] I'm turning a blind eye to the [00:28:43] work, I mean, I thought I had won, what do I have to do, I'm campaigning, [00:28:46] but yes, I'm campaigning for it to be [00:28:50] incredible, for it to be wonderful and for it to continue being [00:28:54] wonderful, so I'm going to visit many [00:28:58] of those wonderful senators and I tell those with whom I won, [00:29:01] we have others. who are leading by [00:29:04] 30 points, no, no, they don't do that, don't come here, the ones [00:29:08] we need are those who have heard that there are [00:29:11] very close contests that are winning by a very [00:29:14] little or losing by a very little and they are or they are [00:29:18] tied, but I'm going to all those [00:29:22] states to win [00:29:26] seats in Congress and the Senate, we are going to have [00:29:30] rallies. [00:29:44] We're going to have rallies like this, we're going to have [00:29:48] stadiums full of people, the senators are wonderful [00:29:51] people, so many, such good people, their [00:29:54] policies, [00:29:56] are common sense, I hear that one of the most [00:30:00] wonderful politicians. I see many of them and they talk about [00:30:04] common sense and it's precisely [00:30:08] anything else, they are not stupid policies that have [00:30:11] led us, have led us to the pit, if we [00:30:15] had not won the last election I'm not sure that our [00:30:18] country would exist now, the path was [00:30:22] very bad, so I'm going [00:30:25] to each of those places, those [00:30:28] 35, [00:30:30] a couple of times I'll go. for some cases [00:30:33] and I'm also going to hold meetings [00:30:37] and I'll come to Texas again, because we have to elect [00:30:40] Ken Paxon, we have to elect him, [00:30:53] and if I have to come back two or three times, I will [00:30:56] do it.
