[00:00:00] our logbook of knowledge and be part of atomun every [00:00:03] Thursday only on Telesur. [00:00:10] cases, in the [00:00:14] are at the forefront in this field of [00:00:32] How are you? Welcome to this broadcast of economic impact on the [00:00:36] Telesur screen. I am Aron Romero and these are our [00:00:42] year, an increase of 100% in headlines. We start there, we talk about Venezuela, the government has [00:00:45] delivered 212 homes, [00:00:48] intelligence begins to all this to the families affected by the seismic [00:00:50] doublet. [00:00:56] In our analysis space, we talk about artificial intelligence. [00:01:00] it is at the [00:01:01] forefront [00:01:08] and in our digital tour, [00:01:23] receptive, they have started to we start, the Venezuelan government delivered 212 rehabilitated homes in the Santa [00:01:26] Rosalía parish of Caracas for the benefit of more than 900. 80 [00:01:30] people affected by the seismic doublet of June [00:01:34] 24, the delivery of rehabilitated properties is part of the [00:01:38] agenda in the Venezuela Renase Plan promoted by the acting president of the [00:01:41] country, Delci Rodríguez, to guarantee the right to housing. In Laguaira [00:01:45] state, the region most affected after the seismic events, 60 [00:01:49] apartments were delivered, allowing the [00:01:52] return of 302 people to their [00:01:55] homes. In this regard, the acting president praised the work [00:01:58] achieved during. repair structures after the devastation that [00:02:02] affected Venezuelan homes, well, we are here in [00:02:06] Santa Rosalía, the parish Santa Rosalía [00:02:09] in the Giant of Latin America Urbanism, with the [00:02:13] presidential commission for housing rehabilitation, [00:02:17] with the president of the Venezuela Renace Plan, the mayor [00:02:20] of Caracas, the community spokespersons, today is a day [00:02:24] of happiness, because we are [00:02:27] returning 202. [00:02:30] homes to 983 people [00:02:33] who return to their homes, thanks to the Venezuela [00:02:37] Renace plan, to the community brigades of [00:02:40] Venezuela Renace, and amidst the genocidal siege maintained by the United [00:02:44] States against Cuba, the revolutionary government of the Island prioritizes the [00:02:47] welfare of the people, in this sense, new norms have been published by the [00:02:51] Ministry of Internal Trade to reorder wholesale [00:02:54] trade, create neighborhood markets and strengthen the family [00:02:58] care system. In [00:03:01] intelligence fact, the brutality of the blockade that has hit internal [00:03:03] supply, also, given the limitations, the ministry has [00:03:07] launched the Neighborhood Market project, an initiative that seeks [00:03:10] to guarantee access to basic necessities for the most [00:03:14] vulnerable population. These new provisions also [00:03:18] include tax incentives to lower prices with [00:03:21] bonuses of up to 10% on [00:03:23] wholesale sales tax. The new norms [00:03:27] will also regulate supply markets to allow. direct [00:03:30] access to natural and legal persons, likewise, [00:03:34] the regulations of the family care system are updated, which [00:03:37] serves the most vulnerable and, exceptionally, [00:03:40] pregnant women who require nutritional [00:03:43] reinforcement. [00:03:52] Likewise, the tariff policy promoted by the administration of [00:03:56] President Donald Trump faces a new judicial challenge in the United States after. [00:04:00] that the coalition of attorneys general from 25 [00:04:03] states filed a [00:04:06] of its drum, what lawsuit before the International Trade Court, questioning the use of [00:04:08] Section 301 of the 1974 Trade [00:04:11] Act to impose taxes on dozens [00:04:15] of economies, including [00:04:17] rises with Chile. The action argues that the [00:04:20] argument related to forced labor was improperly [00:04:23] applied to justify broad trade measures. [00:04:26] The appeal requests to suspend tariffs. while [00:04:30] the process advances and argues that the executive exceeded [00:04:34] exports to the US market, despite the [00:04:37] validity of international free trade treaties. [00:04:54] We now have information from Argentina, the government of President Javier Miley [00:04:57] withdrew the bill on... [00:05:00] private property, the chapter that proposed to modify the regime of [00:05:04] rural lands and raise the limit for foreign [00:05:07] ownership to 25%. The [00:05:11] with export growth decision came after governors. Allied and legislative blocs, anticipated their [00:05:15] rejection, leaving the ruling party without the necessary [00:05:18] votes to approve the initiative in the Senate. The backtrack [00:05:22] represents a political setback for the executive who will now seek to advance [00:05:25] only with reforms linked to expropriations, [00:05:29] territorial displacement and access to common [00:05:32] goods. Likewise, trade unions, social [00:05:35] movements of the government to gather consensus around [00:05:39] one of its main legislative reforms. [00:05:52] On the other hand, in the province of Radka, in Syria, the population has shown its [00:05:55] discontent, after the trade was affected by a [00:05:59] shortage of foreign currency. Here are the [00:06:01] details: [00:06:03] the replacement of the old currency in Syria has generated difficulties [00:06:07] for economic activity in the province of Racua, where numerous [00:06:11] citizens went to... post offices and authorized [00:06:13] centers to exchange their banknotes due to the refusal [00:06:17] of businesses and institutions to accept [00:06:20] the old currency. The limited availability of exchange [00:06:23] points caused long lines and delays that affected daily [00:06:27] transactions. Residents of the city expressed their [00:06:30] discontent due to the complications in accessing the new currency, [00:06:33] pointing out that the situation has paralyzed part of the local trade, including [00:06:37] food markets and public services that demand the new [00:06:41] banknotes. Due to the increase in demand, the authorities extended the [00:06:44] operating hours. Old ones should be gradually [00:06:47] withdrawn without people realizing it, not giving us deadlines [00:06:51] and so on, not even a month has passed since the central [00:06:55] bank opened, we went there and our queue number was [00:06:58] 251, when we go to exchange offices, [00:07:02] the dollar is exchanged at 13 Syrian pounds for the new [00:07:05] currency, but they charge 20,000 Syrian pounds when exchanging the [00:07:09] old currency, what are we supposed to do governor? of the [00:07:12] Central Bank of Syria. If you don't understand these matters then [00:07:16] step aside. Previously, the 500 [00:07:19] pound banknote was withdrawn and people barely noticed. [00:07:22] Then the banknote explains that we are going to get it. We go to the [00:07:26] town hall and they demand it. We go to court and they demand it. [00:07:30] Through centralized processes. The new [00:07:32] currency presented by the transitional government is part of a [00:07:36] strategy to strengthen financial stability and [00:07:39] reorganize the country's monetary system. [00:07:43] and China is at the world's forefront of artificial [00:07:46] intelligence, that will be our topic, when we return. [00:09:35] The broad masses of scientific and technological workers are an important [00:09:39] force in building a great modern socialist country. I hope [00:09:42] that all of you continue with the excellent tradition of serving the [00:09:46] nation and benefiting the people, make new [00:09:49] contributions to make China a strong [00:09:52] country in science and technology. [00:10:23] We continue with more economic impact: artificial intelligence [00:10:27] is leading current technology, transforming economies [00:10:30] worldwide, automating tasks, creating new markets and also [00:10:34] improving productivity industries, among the countries that [00:10:39] computing is China, which uses it for different [00:10:43] areas, then the modernization of this [00:10:46] country, let's go with the following [00:10:48] material, [00:10:51] artificial intelligence ceased to be. [00:10:55] a technological promise to become the main [00:10:58] axis of the transformation of the 21st century, just [00:11:02] like the ancient inventions, today [00:11:05] artificial intelligence begins just like [00:11:08] the ancient inventions, today artificial [00:11:13] redefine economy, [00:11:15] politics, science and culture. In this [00:11:19] context, China is at the forefront in the technological [00:11:22] era and competes with... the United States for global [00:11:26] leadership in artificial [00:11:28] intelligence. Under this scenario, the president [00:11:32] of China, Chijin Ping, has urged [00:11:35] to accelerate efforts to [00:11:37] achieve [00:11:39] one In recent years, China has embraced AI with open [00:11:43] arms, we have promoted the interaction between an efficient market and a [00:11:46] well-functioning government, strengthened AI [00:11:49] innovation, actively promoted the AI [00:11:53] Plus initiative and built a healthy ecosystem for all [00:11:57] entities to prosper together. The core industries of the [00:12:00] smart economy are worth at least one trillion [00:12:03] yuan. Smart manufacturing in China has become [00:12:07] another shining hallmark of Chinese [00:12:10] modernization. According to data from the World [00:12:13] Intellectual Property Organization, between 2024 and [00:12:17] 2025, China has concentrated close to [00:12:21] 60% of generative artificial intelligence [00:12:24] patent families, consolidating its [00:12:27] position as the main technological development hub on the [00:12:30] planet. This leadership not only [00:12:33] reflects a sustained investment strategy in [00:12:37] research, infrastructure and [00:12:39] training, but also the decision [00:12:41] of [00:12:46] a highly planned economy that made China become from a purely [00:12:49] rural country in just 80 years [00:12:53] to the second economic power in the world, well, given [00:12:57] the growth of the Chinese artificial intelligence industry, it is expected that [00:13:01] it will exceed 1.2 trillion [00:13:04] yuan in 2025, about 176.7 [00:13:07] billion US dollars, [00:13:10] which represents an annual increase of 40%. The [00:13:14] China Academy of Information and Communications Technology recently [00:13:18] indicated that as of June of this year, China [00:13:21] housed more than 6,600 artificial [00:13:26] companies, representing 15% of the [00:13:30] world's total. The country has developed a complex industrial [00:13:33] system that covers fundamental infrastructures, [00:13:36] world. The country has developed a complex industrial [00:13:39] system that covers fundamental infrastructures, models [00:13:42] and frameworks, sector-specific applications. This has been indicated by the [00:13:46] entity. The application segment represented [00:13:49] 55% of the entire artificial intelligence [00:13:52] industry chain in 2025. with [00:13:56] an increase of 22% [00:13:57] year-on-year. [00:14:04] First, the foundation of computing power has been consolidated, the first [00:14:07] artificial intelligence supercluster of 10,000 high-end cards, local [00:14:11] companies such as Dipsic and Monshot have successively launched several large open-source [00:14:14] models with billions of parameters. The total global downloads of large [00:14:18] national models have exceeded 10 billion and nationally [00:14:22] manufactured models are adapting to national computing chips. at an accelerated [00:14:25] pace. Third, factor flows have become more active, more than [00:14:29] 120,000 high-quality datasets have been created and a virtuous [00:14:33] circle of mutual reinforcement between computing power, models and data is forming at a [00:14:37] faster pace, driven by coordinated advances on all [00:14:40] fronts. The AI industry has become a powerful engine of [00:14:43] economic growth with related industries maintaining growth of more [00:14:47] than 30% in the first half of this year. Currently, [00:14:51] smartwatches and smart toys from China are sold. [00:14:55] in more than 170 countries, 193 [00:14:58] conform to the United Nations Organization and regions around the world. [00:15:02] In the first half of this year, Chinese exports of radars, [00:15:05] lasers, used for smart driving increased by [00:15:09] 58.3%, while exports of 3D [00:15:13] printers soared by 109.3%. [00:15:15] Meanwhile, [00:15:18] exports of intelligent bionic robots, based on [00:15:22] artificial intelligence technologies. exceeded [00:15:25] 10,000 units and intelligent manipulation robots [00:15:29] and welding robots continued to expand in the [00:15:33] manufacturing market worldwide, [00:15:36] rates. that exceeded 60% in both [00:15:48] same way, artificial intelligence promotes consumer products [00:15:51] attracting buyers from China's largest electronic [00:15:55] market. Visiting Juan Kian Bay in southern [00:15:58] China allows buyers to experience firsthand [00:16:01] cutting-edge technology, especially products such [00:16:05] as smart glasses against. real-time [00:16:08] production, according to official data, the area has recorded an average of [00:16:12] almost 8, foreign business visitors per [00:16:15] day, since the beginning of this [00:16:19] sales of artificial intelligence glasses and an increase [00:16:23] ranging between 60 and 70% in sales of drones and [00:16:26] robots. [00:16:32] This is an important electronics center in the world, as [00:16:35] you know, you can find whatever you want. I bought virtual reality [00:16:38] glasses, smart glasses, there are so many things here, it's [00:16:42] amazing. Our sales have already exceeded the total of [00:16:46] all last year in just the first half of this year and foreign [00:16:50] markets now represent around 60% of our [00:16:54] business. Since the new policy was introduced, our [00:16:57] European customers have been the most [00:17:00] place more customized orders for designs with [00:17:04] integrated batteries. [00:17:06] With this information, we mark. We have another pause here in economic impact, but when we [00:17:10] return we will be talking about the Democratic Republic of Congo, well. [00:18:02] Thank you for staying with us, we share information from this digital [00:18:05] tour with the portal. News headlines the following: Democratic [00:18:09] Republic of Congo, African nation. In this country, the government has [00:18:12] prohibited the export of copper and cobalt [00:18:16] concentrates. A governmental report accessed by [00:18:19] Reuters News Agency indicates that this [00:18:22] is part of the country's attempt to retain a greater [00:18:26] amount of revenue from its vast mineral wealth. The order [00:18:29] also includes the introduction of new taxes on economically [00:18:33] important mining by-products. While the [00:18:36] division took effect immediately, the new tax regime for [00:18:40] by-products has a 3-month transition [00:18:44] period. [00:18:49] Now we share information from the Telesurtv.net [00:18:53] portal. Iran and Oman agree to coordinate [00:18:57] a maritime route in the Strait of Hormuz. The [00:19:00] authorities of Iran and Oman have reached an agreement on the geographical [00:19:04] coordinates of a transit maritime route through the Strait of Hormuz. [00:19:08] According to the spokesman of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, [00:19:11] Ismael Bagai. The advance seeks to establish [00:19:15] technical and navigation guidelines in this strategic [00:19:18] passage for global hydrocarbon trade. During his [00:19:21] statements, Baguey detailed that the delegations of both [00:19:24] countries comprehensively examined the technical, legal, security [00:19:28] and environmental dimensions of this [00:19:31] project. [00:19:36] Next, we have the portal. of the Russian media Sputning in its [00:19:39] version, [00:19:42] next, we have the portal of the Russian media Sputning in [00:19:45] its to the Brazilian market, a key destination for non-raw [00:19:49] material exports. Cooperation will be carried out in strategic [00:19:53] areas of common interest for Russia and Brazil such [00:19:56] as industry, construction and the agro-industrial sector. This [00:20:00] fact represents another step in the systematic strengthening of the international [00:20:04] network that currently covers 18 countries. [00:20:12] and to finalize this tour, we analyze the headline offered [00:20:15] by Europa Press, it states the following: fuels [00:20:18] have their fifth consecutive rise in mid-summer and [00:20:21] have accumulated an increase of almost 20%. In [00:20:23] the price of a liter of [00:20:27] diesel has increased this week by 4.1% compared [00:20:30] to the previous one. For its part, the average price of a [00:20:34] liter of gasoline has stood this week at [00:20:37] 1.687 after increasing by [00:20:41] 2.61%. Compared to last week, [00:20:45] likewise the price of diesel, we are of course talking about a European [00:20:48] nation, we are talking about Spain, the price of diesel [00:20:51] has accumulated an increase of 19.2%, [00:20:55] while that of gasoline has increased by [00:20:58] 17.3%, placing both fuels at their maximum [00:21:02] levels for the week of March 23 or until [00:21:05] this day from this day. [00:21:18] We add oil indicators. We start with West Texas, [00:21:22] currently marking 75.97, [00:21:25] an increase of 0.77 cents [00:21:27] of a dollar, we also have the Brent barrel marking [00:21:31] 80.55, an increase of [00:21:34] $1.12 [00:21:36] cents and finally we have OPEC basket crude marking [00:21:40] 77.34. [00:21:47] And with this, we bid farewell to this broadcast. of economic [00:21:50] impact, I am Aron Romero, see you next time,
