[00:00:03] their contributions to the national
[00:00:10] rule of law applies to
[00:00:26] How are you? This is Telesur News, I'll tell you immediately
[00:00:29] the legislative actions our headlines.
[00:00:33] US Embassies issue security alerts in
[00:00:36] various nations in
[00:00:38] Western Asia.
[00:00:44] destroyed homes, de la grid of the distribution and Russia is ready for the third and last day of the legislative elections to renew
[00:00:47] 450 seats of the State
[00:00:49] Duma.
[00:00:53] Argentina reestablishes electricity supply after a grid failure that
[00:00:57] interrupted service in the city of Buenos Aires.
[00:01:25] US Embassies in various nations in
[00:01:28] Western Asia issued security alerts directed
[00:01:31] at their citizens in a context of growing regional
[00:01:36] in 130 countries, is framed detention. Among the delegations that issued statements is that of Jerusalem, which reported on
[00:01:40] eventual alterations in civil air operations, including
[00:01:44] flight interruptions, temporary airspace closures, and
[00:01:48] unforeseen modifications to
[00:01:50] exception just before summer travel restrictions. Analysts and political sectors
[00:01:53] indicated that these alerts could be the
[00:01:56] prelude to new aggressions from Washington against countries in
[00:01:59] Western Asia in a context marked by the historical
[00:02:02] interventionist pattern of the White House at the regional
[00:02:05] level.
[00:02:13] Iran's judiciary issued formal accusations against
[00:02:16] 159 US and Israeli officials for the
[00:02:20] assassination of leader Ali Khamenei and 19 Iranian
[00:02:23] commanders. The spokesman for the entity, Sejet Ali
[00:02:26] Casemi, confirmed that the high-ranking political and military officials
[00:02:30] of the United States and the Israeli regime are facing an open
[00:02:33] investigation, of whom 92 are American and 67
[00:02:37] Israeli. According to the spokesman, one of the legal
[00:02:40] files being processed before the Tehran Court seeks
[00:02:43] compensation for material and moral
[00:02:47] damages, and a hearing date will soon be issued.
[00:02:50] He highlighted that the objective of the investigations is to document the allegations
[00:02:54] and evidence to proceed with the process of prosecuting and sentencing
[00:02:58] those responsible.
[00:03:06] The Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, General
[00:03:09] Mohsen Rezaei, announced that Tehran transmitted
[00:03:13] seven demands to Washington to initiate any negotiation
[00:03:16] process. He stressed that the Iranian message is clear and
[00:03:20] unequivocal and warned that if the United States wishes to get out of the quagmire
[00:03:23] it caused, it has no other alternative than to accept the
[00:03:27] rights and conditions of Iran. Previously, the spokesman for the
[00:03:30] Iranian Foreign Ministry, Ismael Bagey, declared on state
[00:03:34] television that Washington cannot talk about negotiations without Tehran's
[00:03:37] conditions being met. He indicated that what Iran announced
[00:03:41] are, in reality, the same demands and foundations of the June
[00:03:45] the corresponding support from 17 agreement, from which the US government unilaterally
[00:03:48] and unjustifiably withdrew. He reiterated
[00:03:51] that Iran demands the total lifting of sanctions and the end of the US naval
[00:03:55] blockade on Iranian ports and vessels and
[00:03:59] emphasized that as long as that blockade persists,
[00:04:01] there can be no talk of ending the conflict or normalizing
[00:04:05] the situation.
[00:04:06] In Yemen, the Ministry of Foreign
[00:04:12] Affairs of the Sana'a Government denied
[00:04:16] civilian attacks against Saudi territory and blamed the Saudi
[00:04:19] government's defense for these events. The Ministry clarified that
[00:04:23] the casualties in the Saudi regime attributed to the Yemeni
[00:04:26] resistance are, in reality, a consequence of
[00:04:30] the interceptions carried out by their own air
[00:04:33] defense systems. The diplomatic portfolio denounced that Riyadh
[00:04:37] deliberately carries out these interception operations over
[00:04:40] densely populated areas with the aim of
[00:04:43] causing the greatest possible number of civilian casualties and then
[00:04:47] attributing them to Yemeni forces. The ministry stressed that Yemeni
[00:04:50] armed forces have demonstrated throughout the last 12 years that their
[00:04:54] targets are military and oil facilities that end the
[00:04:58] aggression, and not civilians or residential areas. Furthermore,
[00:05:02] they concluded that Yemeni military operations are governed by
[00:05:05] religious, moral, and humanitarian principles, as confirmed by the
[00:05:09] reality on the ground. Russia is ready for the third and last
[00:05:20] day of the legislative elections to renew
[00:05:23] 450 seats of the State Duma. We have our correspondent
[00:05:27] Odeb Díaz immediately with us.
[00:05:30] Greetings to the collective and
[00:05:34] to the audience, a few hours left for the start of the
[00:05:38] last day of voting for
[00:05:42] in Russia to determine who will be the 450
[00:05:45] deputies who will represent the citizens for 5
[00:05:49] years in the State Duma, the Lower House of Parliament
[00:05:52] in its ninth legislature. The electoral
[00:05:55] process, which has extended for three days, has been marked
[00:05:59] by constant popular participation, despite attempts to
[00:06:02] sabotage it through cyberattacks on the electronic system, including
[00:06:06] direct attacks by Ukrainian drones on polling
[00:06:09] stations, especially in the border areas
[00:06:12] of the country. At the close of the second election
[00:06:15] day, the vice president of the Moscow City Electoral
[00:06:19] Commission, Dimitri Reu, reported that more than 3.12 million
[00:06:23] voters exercised their right to vote in the country's capital
[00:06:26] through electronic ballots, and of them, 400,000 did
[00:06:30] so physically at the polling stations. For her
[00:06:33] part, the president of the Central Electoral Commission, Ella
[00:06:37] Panfilova, denounced the continuation of powerful cyberattacks
[00:06:40] against the Muscovite remote electronic voting system. However,
[00:06:44] she added that users did not notice it because the
[00:06:48] attack was repelled and continues to be successfully
[00:06:52] neutralized thanks to effective protection measures. According
[00:06:55] to Panfilova, international observers detected only
[00:06:58] three irregularities during the first two days of
[00:07:02] voting, all of which were immediately corrected. In this context,
[00:07:06] she assured that these observers from different
[00:07:09] countries were able to verify the openness
[00:07:12] of the electoral system for themselves. She also
[00:07:15] reported that as of the close of September
[00:07:19] 19, 4,663,963
[00:07:21] voters had cast their
[00:07:24] early ballots, including 4,400,215
[00:07:27] citizens in 12 border
[00:07:30] regions and regions reunified with Russia. Early
[00:07:33] voting also took place in 37 other federal
[00:07:37] entities of Russia. 232,300 and 69
[00:07:40] voters went to polling stations in remote and
[00:07:44] hard-to-reach areas, 31,258 did
[00:07:47] so on ships at sea, and 121 voters
[00:07:51] at polar stations. The Central Electoral Commission reported
[00:07:55] that at the close of all polling stations on September
[00:07:59] 19, participation in the legislative elections reached
[00:08:02] 44.38%, the highest voter turnout,
[00:08:06] continues to be registered so far in the Republic of Chechnya
[00:08:09] with 85.24%. The second is
[00:08:12] North Ossetia and Tuva, as well as the province
[00:08:16] of Bryansk with 68.67%.
[00:08:19] In this last election day, we will continue
[00:08:23] to provide information on everything that
[00:08:26] happens in this regard. Now we return the
[00:08:29] signal.
[00:08:30] Grateful to Nodep Diaz, in
[00:08:34] Russia several civilians died as a result of a massive drone
[00:08:38] attack by Ukrainians against Moscow. According to the
[00:08:41] report, Russian air defense shot down and neutralized
[00:08:45] 249 drones in 17 districts. It was
[00:08:48] detailed that in the Ramenkib district, a drone caused
[00:08:51] a fire in a residential building from which about
[00:08:55] 400 people were evacuated, including 70 children,
[00:08:59] as well as several victims registered in other districts
[00:09:02] where children, women and adults were affected. The attack perpetrated
[00:09:06] by Kiev caused damage to residential infrastructure and commercial
[00:09:10] buildings. We'll take a short break, don't go away.
[00:09:15] We continue with more, in Argentina, the
[00:10:14] electricity distribution company Edesur confirmed the
[00:10:17] reestablishment of the electricity supply after a high-voltage
[00:10:20] system failure in the city of Buenos Aires. The company reported
[00:10:24] the complete normalization of the electricity supply in the metropolitan area
[00:10:28] of Buenos Aires, after a failure recorded in the interconnected
[00:10:31] system. The service interruption simultaneously
[00:10:34] affected thousands of users in various neighborhoods of the
[00:10:38] northern and southern areas of the urban conglomerate. Edesur also
[00:10:42] confirmed that the fault was repaired after 9:30 PM local
[00:10:46] time, recovering full operability in the
[00:10:49] concession network.
[00:10:50] The electricity supply was indeed
[00:10:58] restored after a grid failure that caused a blackout in Buenos
[00:11:02] Aires, the capital of Argentina. According to official
[00:11:04] reports, a malfunction in the
[00:11:08] marketing company Norte caused nearly
[00:11:11] 600,000 people to be left without electricity in the
[00:11:15] Argentine capital. The power outage began at
[00:11:18] 8:30 PM local time, leaving several
[00:11:21] affected neighborhoods such as Palermo, Belgrano, Villa Santa
[00:11:25] Rita and Recoleta. According to sources from the Sociedad
[00:11:29] Anónima Centro de Movimiento de Energía, SACME, consulted
[00:11:32] by local media, it is presumed that more than 10%
[00:11:35] of the electricity demand managed by the distribution company
[00:11:39] Edenor was lost. Recent reports indicate that the
[00:11:42] service has been gradually restored in small areas of the
[00:11:46] metropolitan area of the Argentine capital, Buenos
[00:11:50] Aires.
[00:11:51] Popular leaders and social organizations
[00:11:57] in Bolivia rejected the "dieselazo" imposed by President Rodrigo
[00:12:00] Paz's government, which eliminated the diesel subsidy and
[00:12:04] set its price almost double the previous one. Former
[00:12:08] President Evo Morales denounced that the measure was imposed
[00:12:11] after extending the state of
[00:12:15] planting and warned that the burden of the adjustment falls
[00:12:18] on those who work the land. The federated transport declared
[00:12:22] an emergency and warned that the measure could leave
[00:12:25] about 2,000 members without work, while agricultural
[00:12:28] producers warned about rising food prices. Social organizations
[00:12:32] called for mobilizations and demanded the immediate
[00:12:35] repeal of that decree. Also in Bolivia, the country's
[00:12:39] labor federation rejected the
[00:12:47] elimination of the diesel subsidy and called for a national
[00:12:50] emergency meeting through a statement. The COB issued
[00:12:53] the following message: The Bolivian Labor Federation,
[00:12:56] representing the legitimate and genuine working class and Bolivian
[00:13:00] families, categorically rejects and condemns the
[00:13:04] recent announcement by the national government regarding the total
[00:13:07] elimination of the diesel subsidy. In exercise of its
[00:13:10] organizational and statutory powers, a national emergency
[00:13:14] meeting is immediately called with the participation of all
[00:13:18] confederations, national federations, departmental and
[00:13:21] regional labor centers. The government
[00:13:25] is solely responsible for social instability and the mobilization
[00:13:28] actions of the grassroots that will then decide to act
[00:13:32] in defense of the bread and dignity of the Bolivian
[00:13:35] people. The Confederation of Drivers of
[00:13:38] Bolivia declared a state of
[00:13:44] emergency and strongly rejected the decree that eliminates the
[00:13:48] diesel subsidy. The national
[00:13:50] road transport in all
[00:13:52] its modalities declares a state
[00:13:55] of emergency and strongly rejects
[00:13:57] this decree 165716.
[00:14:01] It cannot be that the subsidy for diesel is lifted
[00:14:05] precisely at this moment, when road transport needs
[00:14:10] social sectors the most. Nor can it be that it punishes
[00:14:14] our population, because finally, how much would it mean
[00:14:17] if this decree, when diesel necessarily
[00:14:21] cost 18 Bolivian pesos, as indicated in this corresponding
[00:14:24] decree. Therefore, we are clear and concrete,
[00:14:27] we will not be able to necessarily pay that corresponding
[00:14:30] price for diesel, because finally, how much would a
[00:14:34] user have to pay for the corresponding bus fare, how much would they have
[00:14:37] to pay in this case for heavy transport regarding freight
[00:14:41] charges? So, practically, it doubles. Therefore,
[00:14:45] it is practically a punishment for the national
[00:14:48] population, our users, our passengers. Therefore,
[00:14:52] for that situation, the Confederation of Drivers of
[00:14:55] Bolivia strongly rejects this decree
[00:14:58] 5157/16. The Executive Secretary of the
[00:15:02] Departmental Federation of Drivers of La Paz, Exson
[00:15:05] Valdés, announced the start
[00:15:08] of an indefinite transport strike in the department
[00:15:12] in rejection of Supreme Decree 56/76
[00:15:15] which eliminates the diesel subsidy. From the departmental
[00:15:18] expanded meeting, the nine regional
[00:15:21] diesel.
[00:15:25] federations, free transport,
[00:15:28] the cooperatives that operate in the
[00:15:31] department of La Paz, it has been
[00:15:35] decided, comrades, to continue the indefinite transport strike in the
[00:15:39] department of La Paz. The Minister of the Presidency
[00:15:42] of Bolivia, Fernando Aramayo, warned that the
[00:15:47] all sectors and that there will be sanctions for those
[00:15:51] who go against its full validity.
[00:15:54] The rule of law applies to all,
[00:15:58] we are in a state of exception, and beyond
[00:16:02] the announcements of the sectors, I reiterate, our call
[00:16:05] is to dialogue, not to carry out de facto actions,
[00:16:09] especially at a time when there will be sanctions
[00:16:12] for those who obviously go against the full
[00:16:15] validity of the rule of law. The Ministry of
[00:16:19] Defense, the Ministry of Government have already taken
[00:16:22] precautions to carry out actions, but we should not
[00:16:25] reach those scenarios in which we return to the
[00:16:29] streets to confront the population, because in reality
[00:16:32] it is to confront the population, it is for people to have
[00:16:35] fuel, for people to have food, and it is
[00:16:39] to postpone even more the scenario
[00:16:42] of economic reactivation of the country.
[00:16:45] In Venezuela, a memorandum of understanding was signed
[00:16:49] between PDVSA authorities and the French
[00:16:52] company Total Energy. At Miraflores Palace, the country's
[00:16:55] acting president, Delcy Rodríguez, held a meeting
[00:16:59] with executives of the French company Total Energies, accompanied
[00:17:03] by Hydrocarbons Minister Paula Enao and PDVSA President
[00:17:06] Héctor Obregón. Strategic cooperation in hydrocarbons with
[00:17:10] the French oil giant, present
[00:17:14] within the new organic hydrocarbons law approved earlier this year.
[00:17:18] The country's acting president, Delcy Rodríguez, reiterated
[00:17:21] that Venezuela has reliable legal conditions to attract
[00:17:25] new investments in the context of economic recovery and
[00:17:28] energy alliance with international
[00:17:30] companies.
[00:17:36] And with the signing of several agreements, the visit of
[00:17:40] the President of Paraguay to Venezuela concluded, where he held a dialogue
[00:17:44] with the country's acting president,
[00:17:46] Delcy Rodríguez, with reporting
[00:17:50] from Madelen García. After 1 PM, the acting president
[00:17:54] of Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, received the President
[00:17:57] of Paraguay, Santiago Peña, at Miraflores Palace.
[00:18:01] It is his first visit to the country and it was a working
[00:18:05] visit, approved by the Parliament of Paraguay beforehand.
[00:18:16] In the garden, the musicians of the orchestra system welcomed
[00:18:20] him with a cultural gesture before starting the dialogue
[00:18:23] after more than 20 months of broken relations
[00:18:27] due to Paraguay's government not recognizing President
[00:18:31] Nicolás Maduro of Caracas. At this time, we share with
[00:18:33] you this cultural reception, and the meeting
[00:18:36] that marks a new chapter
[00:18:56] began. Thus, the flags of both countries marked the
[00:19:00] beginning of new bilateral relations, and after two
[00:19:03] hours of conversation, both leaders sealed the face-to-face meeting with the signing
[00:19:40] of Venezuela resumed the export of primary aluminum
[00:19:44] to the United States with a first shipment of over 15,000
[00:19:47] tons after a commercial agreement was reached between
[00:19:50] the CBG Venalum company and international firms. The
[00:19:54] commercial agreement between the state-owned Guayana company, the trading company Mercuria
[00:19:58] Energy Group and LID, and the company Geni
[00:20:01] Capital, made it possible to export ingots that reach
[00:20:05] purity levels between 99% and 99.7%,
[00:20:08] parameters recognized as high-quality standards in the
[00:20:12] international market. This decision is driven by the new
[00:20:15] policies of the country's acting president, Delcy Rodríguez,
[00:20:18] to strengthen national productivity. The CBG
[00:20:22] Venalum company, with a capacity of 430,000 tons
[00:20:26] per year, seeks to contribute to the Venezuelan
[00:20:29] economy.
[00:20:30] The Attorney General
[00:20:36] of Venezuela held a working meeting with a
[00:20:39] delegation from the Human Rights Watch organization. During
[00:20:42] the meeting, they addressed the human rights situation
[00:20:46] and the role of the Public Ministry of Boe. He invited
[00:20:50] the delegation to present
[00:20:53] consultation on the reform of criminal justice, an initiative
[00:20:56] that seeks structural transformations in the Venezuelan judicial
[00:21:00] system. In this way, both parties agreed to establish
[00:21:04] a continuous communication mechanism to provide timely
[00:21:07] responses to issues of justice
[00:21:09] and human rights.
[00:21:15] The Colombian political party Pacto Histórico questioned
[00:21:18] President Abelardo del Espriella's response to the
[00:21:22] tragedy caused by the 7.4 earthquake on August 10.
[00:21:26] Senator Carolina Corcho criticized that, while there are
[00:21:29] nearly 400,000 affected compatriots and almost 70,000
[00:21:34] Espriella prides himself on having only 1,600
[00:21:37] rooms that were provided by the private sector.
[00:21:41] She highlighted that the earthquake victims do not need propaganda
[00:21:45] or minimal budget funds, they need solutions that match
[00:21:49] the crisis. Members of the executive warned about a presumed
[00:21:52] trap in the structure of the Milagro Autonomous Heritage
[00:21:55] Fund created for the country's reconstruction. According to President
[00:21:59] de la Espriella, through this initiative, doors are opened
[00:22:02] to private entrepreneurs and not rich representatives
[00:22:05] with the intention of creating a personal and family business.
[00:22:26] In Colombia, 15 active forest fires are reported
[00:22:30] amidst the current dry season. The National Unit for Disaster
[00:22:34] Risk Management confirmed that the national territory woke up with
[00:22:37] 15 forest fires in progress and nine more under control,
[00:22:41] which impact regions such as Tolima, Cundinamarca, Valle
[00:22:44] del Cauca, Cauca, Huila, and Nariño. Tolima continues
[00:22:48] to be the most affected area, hosting more than half
[00:22:52] of the active fires, with emergencies registered in several
[00:22:55] localities. On the other hand, the entities warned that these
[00:22:59] contingencies are a consequence of the El Niño phenomenon,
[00:23:03] high temperatures, and burns caused by humans. In turn,
[00:23:07] the emergency maintains low water levels in the Cauca and Magdalena
[00:23:10] rivers under surveillance.
[00:23:15] Several departments in Colombia are affected by the Super
[00:23:18] El Niño phenomenon, with droughts caused by the
[00:23:22] scarcity of rainfall. Departments such as Boyacá,
[00:23:25] Atlántico, and César report crop losses, water
[00:23:28] shortages, and impacts on their rivers. In the case of Puerto
[00:23:32] Boyacá, the Magdalena River lost up to 80% of its
[00:23:35] flow, negatively impacting fishermen and river
[00:23:38] transport. Specialized teams are fighting forest fires
[00:23:42] caused by the climatic phenomenon, which could extend
[00:23:46] until the third month of 2027.
[00:23:50] Ecuador recorded a large
[00:23:50] forest fire amidst climatic
[00:23:58] conditions that increase the speed of flame propagation.
[00:24:01] The authorities in Quito, the capital, are facing difficulties
[00:24:05] in controlling the fire due to the topography, high
[00:24:09] altitude, and low humidity levels in the Ecuadorian
[00:24:13] capital. The fire department deployed at least 100 personnel
[00:24:16] to the affected area, in addition to air and
[00:24:20] ground operations to combat the fire. Simultaneously, various
[00:24:24] residents of the surrounding areas manually supported these
[00:24:27] fire extinction operations.
[00:24:29] This concludes the current
[00:24:34] Telesur News broadcast. Until next time.
[00:24:51] As every year, the United Nations headquarters receives
[00:24:54] world leaders during its high-level week, amid the international
[00:24:58] debate on the transformation of multilateral organizations
[00:25:01] to act in favor of the majorities who clamor for
[00:25:04] equity in decision-making and truly influence respect
