[00:00:11] us so much, for example, of
[00:00:17] Good evening, welcome to this Telesur
[00:00:21] News broadcast. Let's hear the
[00:00:22] headlines.
[00:00:25] The presidential candidates of Brazil, Lula and Flavio
[00:00:29] throughout the country. Although no Bolsonaro, led demonstrations in Sao Paulo towards the
[00:00:32] runoff on October 25th.
[00:00:33] octubre,
[00:00:39] In the Dominican Republic, citizens mobilized to demand improvements in
[00:00:43] public services from the government of Luis Abinader.
[00:00:56] The Italian capital Rome prepares for the start of the FAO World
[00:01:00] Food Forum with the presence of Latin American
[00:01:03] leaders.
[00:01:11] and caused confusion among I'm Andrea Romero, I'll be with you, and let's go
[00:01:15] to the news. The far-right candidate Flavio
[00:01:18] Bolsonaro held a meeting with authorities in Sao Paulo, including
[00:01:22] the governor and mayors of the state. Weeks
[00:01:26] 2 and a half million meals distributed in before the second round of elections, Ignacio Lemus gives us more information.
[00:01:32] Greetings, Studio. We are in front of Shopping Light in Sao
[00:01:36] Paulo in the central region of Sao Paulo, very close to where the
[00:01:39] prefecture of Sao Paulo is located, the mayor's office. Here
[00:01:43] arrived the presidential candidate for the far-right Liberal Party,
[00:01:46] Flavio Bolsonaro. He met today
[00:01:50] in this space with mayors from various sectors in
[00:01:54] Sao Paulo, also with the governor of the state of Sao Paulo,
[00:01:57] Tarcisio de Freitas, maintaining the image of the last week, that
[00:02:00] photograph with the allies, those who provided support
[00:02:05] World Food Forum of the United to his candidacy for the runoff of the presidential
[00:02:08] elections. It must be remembered that Flavio Bolsonaro obtained
[00:02:11] support from those right-wing and far-right sectors that did not reach
[00:02:15] the runoff and have few votes in the
[00:02:19] currently it has achieved, through total votes in the balance of the
[00:02:22] first round. However, these are important votes
[00:02:26] given the close result between Flavio Bolsonaro and Lula
[00:02:29] Da Silva. In this close election, all votes count, and that's why
[00:02:33] these supports are important for the far-right
[00:02:36] candidate. Flavio Bolsonaro here asked his militants not to
[00:02:40] let their guard down. It must be emphasized that on the other side, on Paulista Avenue,
[00:02:44] practically 2 km from here, Lula da Silva, according
[00:02:48] to data presented by the Workers' Party, gathered
[00:02:52] 1 million people to
[00:02:55] show support for his campaign for the second round of elections.
[00:02:59] Lula in the first round was practically two
[00:03:01] points behind Flavio Bolsonaro, and now he intends
[00:03:05] to reverse that scenario by showing widespread
[00:03:08] demonstrations in the streets
[00:03:10] Dominican Republic, and in during the last few days and particularly today, Sunday, here in Sao Paulo.
[00:03:13] Studio, thank you
[00:03:16] to our colleague Ignacio Lemus for this information. We continue in Brazil because
[00:03:20] popular organizations are calling for national mobilizations to
[00:03:23] support the re-election of Luis
[00:03:26] meeting to commemorate Resistance Ignacio Lula da Silva as a preventive
[00:03:28] challenge of food measure against a possible election of Flavio Bolsonaro.
[00:03:31] Sao Paulo is the epicenter of the massive mobilizations, which
[00:03:35] promise to increase participation in the streets, where
[00:03:38] a rally was also held by candidate Flavio
[00:03:42] Bolsonaro. President Luis Inacio Lula da Silva leads
[00:03:45] the campaign activities and mobilizations on Paulista Avenue
[00:03:49] to seek his re-election. The head of
[00:03:53] 2026 edition of state prepares to overcome the disadvantage of almost
[00:03:56] two percentage points registered in the first round,
[00:04:00] promoting a climate of social mobilization and support for his candidacy.
[00:04:27] Our program "Venezuela in Movement" continues its journey
[00:04:31] through the country. During its stop in Miranda state, it learned about the
[00:04:34] productive experience of the Añaplácida commune. Our
[00:04:38] colleague Michel Ramírez tells us the
[00:04:40] details.
[00:04:44] We arrived at the warm lands of Cuba, Miranda state, where the
[00:04:48] Añaplácida commune is located, which with a spirit of struggle, love, and
[00:04:52] commitment to the homeland, has launched various initiatives that seek
[00:04:55] to promote local economy and the construction of social happiness.
[00:04:59] Let's get to know this
[00:05:02] justice, there is no peace. So that is what community together. In the center of Venezuela, Miranda state, in the Tuy Valleys region,
[00:05:06] is the town of Cua, founded in
[00:05:09] 1690 and popularly
[00:05:11] origins. I think one of known as the pearl of... This town, with over
[00:05:15] 170,000 inhabitants, stands out for two important
[00:05:18] reasons: its historic center, birthplace of the hero Ezequiel Zamora, and for its
[00:05:21] people, productive
[00:05:23] men and women.
[00:05:32] Cuba is much more than these rural streets. In these lands
[00:05:35] reside the women of the Añaplácida commune, an example of strength
[00:05:39] and communal organization. Together they have fought for their community
[00:05:42] for more than a decade, and every initiative has been born within the walls of their
[00:05:46] self-government hall. The commune is my
[00:05:48] home. The comuneros are my
[00:05:52] brothers. The contemporary comuneras with me
[00:05:55] are my brothers. I have my
[00:05:58] grandchildren within the commune, so for me, the commune is a
[00:06:01] home, a home where we are
[00:06:04] equals, and among equals we have
[00:06:07] greater, we have greater capacity to
[00:06:11] understand each other. And if we have any difficulty, we are also
[00:06:15] able to overcome it, but together as a family.
[00:06:18] So from the bottom of my heart, I love my
[00:06:21] commune, and I love my fellow
[00:06:24] comuneros, male and female, because here 80%
[00:06:27] is female, and
[00:06:30] most of the self-government bodies are made up of
[00:06:33] women. My comrades, the 20%
[00:06:36] male are also my fellow comuneros. They also have a
[00:06:40] sense of belonging and commitment,
[00:06:43] just like a woman, and they defend women to the hilt.
[00:06:46] So what can I tell you? My commune is my
[00:06:49] home, my commune is my home, and my comunero is my
[00:06:53] family. During the pandemic, a project was born: the
[00:06:56] collection of solid waste so that its inhabitants live in a clean
[00:07:00] and healthy space. Months later, it became a circular
[00:07:04] economy. We have built, over the
[00:07:07] last 8 years, through the self-government system
[00:07:11] with the participation of 16 communal councils,
[00:07:14] a direct social property company that was born as a
[00:07:18] solid waste management plan. That plan continues to
[00:07:22] collect 60 tons of waste in a
[00:07:26] self-managed way for those 16 communal
[00:07:28] councils, and
[00:07:32] training and organization, to
[00:07:35] form an EPS with the support of Caricuado Caribe, who were
[00:07:38] our main trainers. Mainly, our
[00:07:42] objective as a commune is to generate a transformation process
[00:07:45] with our Mother Earth, to generate a transformation
[00:07:49] process from the citizen in relation
[00:07:51] to nature, in relation to our
[00:07:55] territory as that main environment that gives us
[00:07:59] life and that gives
[00:08:01] us life and that generates for
[00:08:05] all of us the main inputs to develop
[00:08:08] as a people, as a nation. The workforce is female. It is
[00:08:12] women who collect the waste in their communities and bring it to
[00:08:16] the collection center, and with the passage of the scooter, the journey begins
[00:08:20] until it reaches the classification
[00:08:21] center.
[00:08:29] To this green landscape they arrive with enthusiasm, get to work
[00:08:33] and recycle what was once garbage. We separate
[00:08:36] it into eight groups. Each group
[00:08:40] is formed by an item. For example, we have the
[00:08:43] PET, which we call PET, which is the
[00:08:46] plastic from chairs, the plastic from laundry baskets,
[00:08:50] the plastic from kitchen utensils. We also have
[00:08:54] blown plastic, which is this plastic that includes shampoo
[00:08:58] and chlorine bottles, paint cans.
[00:09:01] We also have,
[00:09:05] separately, because it's a material that we cannot mix with others, what
[00:09:08] is the plastic from butter
[00:09:11] containers, from Chinese rice, the plastic from
[00:09:15] refrigerators, from washing machines, and all of this, all this process we
[00:09:19] do here with the spokespersons who make up the EPS, the commune,
[00:09:22] those of us who started with this project. Once
[00:09:26] we have weighed it by communal council
[00:09:30] to know what quantity each communal
[00:09:33] council has given us, we can then give
[00:09:37] them back what they need: brush cutters for their dance
[00:09:40] group, lighting, whatever
[00:09:42] they require and can afford with the amount of
[00:09:46] material they have given us. The love for the homeland, for the environment, for their
[00:09:50] Venezuelan brothers, has been the backbone that has sustained their
[00:09:53] work. Love, first, the legacy left to us by
[00:09:57] our commander Rafael Hugo Chávez Frías, which our president Nicolás Maduro
[00:10:00] is following, and now our acting president Delsi
[00:10:04] Rodríguez. To generate is that: socialism,
[00:10:07] unity, equality, social justice,
[00:10:11] because if there is no
[00:10:15] we want: manufacturing and export.
[00:10:17] exportación,
[00:10:22] Thus, the Añaplácida commune consolidates itself as a benchmark for
[00:10:25] self-management, popular organization, and sustainable
[00:10:28] development. Its management stands out for its ability to transform local
[00:10:32] problems into collective solutions, achieving a balance between
[00:10:35] citizen participation and environmental care. With Jesús
[00:10:39] Romero on camera, Michel Ramírez from Miranda, Venezuela for
[00:10:41] Telesur. A 7.5 magnitude
[00:10:44] earthquake and a hundred aftershocks shook Panama on
[00:10:48] Friday, October 9, leaving more than 400 homes affected
[00:10:54] fatalities have been reported so far, the government
[00:10:57] declared a state of emergency and mobilized national and international
[00:11:00] aid to the hardest-hit provinces.
[00:11:03] Our colleague Reca Chandiramani tells us
[00:11:06] more.
[00:11:09] A 7.5 magnitude earthquake on the Richter
[00:11:12] scale shook Panama this Friday. The
[00:11:16] first event was registered at 12:56 local
[00:11:20] time on October 9, with an epicenter near
[00:11:23] Tonosí, in the province of Los Santos, south of the country,
[00:11:27] about 5 hours from the capital. The
[00:11:31] earthquake was felt in at least nine of the 10 provinces
[00:11:36] the population. In Panama City, thousands of people
[00:11:40] evacuated skyscrapers, businesses, and
[00:11:43] offices. I was the first one who noticed it in my salon. I said, "Oh, it's
[00:11:47] shaking hard! Let's all run!" And we all went to
[00:11:50] the sidewalk. We saw people running, the people from
[00:11:54] Lidan came outside. The
[00:11:57] buildings were swaying from side to side. The truth is, it was very,
[00:12:01] very, very scary.
[00:12:04] I felt a lot of panic. I
[00:12:07] had never experienced anything like it. When
[00:12:10] we felt the second one and saw the cars starting to move,
[00:12:14] lamps started to fall in the building,
[00:12:17] people started running, people who didn't, who used canes,
[00:12:21] forgot about their canes and ran out.
[00:12:25] On the floor, we had to help lift them up, but thank God,
[00:12:29] at least in the Viva España area, it was largely evacuated.
[00:12:33] As of Saturday, no fatalities or disappearances
[00:12:36] were reported. The authorities did
[00:12:39] record at least 27 people with
[00:12:42] injuries ranging from moderate to severe. The
[00:12:46] aftershocks, however, kept the population on edge
[00:12:50] for more than 24 hours. Many neighbors also had to sleep
[00:12:53] out here. We are going
[00:12:57] in and out, some are not coming down today, but yes, those of us who are
[00:13:00] waiting, unexpected, I think that here in
[00:13:03] Panama something like this was not expected,
[00:13:07] much less by me, I mean, experiencing it was something
[00:13:10] very out of the ordinary. More than 400
[00:13:13] homes were affected throughout the country, in addition
[00:13:17] to 188 schools and damage to hospitals,
[00:13:21] churches, and governmental buildings. The
[00:13:24] cathedral of San Juan Bautista de Penonomé, in the center of the
[00:13:27] country, lost one of its towers and a side of the
[00:13:31] Coclé government building collapsed. The
[00:13:34] Tocumen airport suspended operations for a few
[00:13:37] hours, while the Panama Canal continued to operate. The
[00:13:41] provinces where most residences have been registered are Herrera, Los Santos,
[00:13:45] and Veraguas, where we also have island areas, Cañas Island, which was
[00:13:48] affected by the rise in water levels and needed to evacuate
[00:13:52] 300 people. The government declared a state of emergency
[00:13:55] to facilitate assistance for an amount
[00:13:58] of up to 100 million dollars. The
[00:14:01] President of the Republic gave clear instructions that all
[00:14:05] ministers and institutions be
[00:14:08] available and with the resources
[00:14:11] for solidarity aid to all
[00:14:14] those affected. This Saturday, national and international aid began to be mobilized
[00:14:18] to the provinces of Coclé,
[00:14:21] Aguas, and Los Santos. Airplanes loaded with water, tents, dry
[00:14:26] food, and essential supplies are being
[00:14:29] collected at the capital's city hall and Omar Park.
[00:14:33] Classes are suspended
[00:14:37] this Monday, while the government assesses the damage and
[00:14:41] establishes assistance protocols in the coming
[00:14:44] days. For Telesur, from Panama
[00:14:47] City.
[00:14:48] Panamá.
[00:14:55] various streets in the country to demand improvements in public
[00:14:58] services from the national government. This Sunday's march calls attention to
[00:15:02] problems of access to land, public services,
[00:15:06] social security, and living conditions. The
[00:15:09] call brings together social, peasant, labor,
[00:15:12] student, and community organizations from the region.
[00:15:16] Under the slogan, "The East region rises, we can't take any more
[00:15:20] abuses," the protests also denounce evictions,
[00:15:24] violence against women, and alleged
[00:15:27] labor abuses.
[00:15:35] We are demanding
[00:15:38] what is rightfully ours. In this community, we don't have drinking water, we
[00:15:42] don't have quality healthcare services, there are no schools,
[00:15:45] the streets are dark. We live in constant disaster, and we have
[00:15:49] united and risen up to demand what is rightfully ours: more
[00:15:52] local roads, that farmers be considered, that their
[00:15:56] land not be taken away. We are also
[00:15:59] asking for better healthcare, because
[00:16:03] we have hospitals but not enough
[00:16:06] for our region. We
[00:16:10] want more specialists because
[00:16:13] we have few doctors without any
[00:16:15] specialty. This march today, October
[00:16:18] 11, is because the state has a social debt with the eastern region
[00:16:22] and the country, because there are a series of problems that the state has not
[00:16:26] been able to, has not been able to fulfill, and because workers have rights that
[00:16:30] are being denied, such as the right to severance pay, the
[00:16:33] right to work with dignity, the right to social
[00:16:36] security. For that reason, we march.
[00:16:40] We march today, October 11, to stop
[00:16:43] evictions in the eastern region and throughout the country, to lower the high
[00:16:47] cost of living, and so that the popular and working class
[00:16:51] can have a dignified life in the Dominican Republic. The spokesperson for the
[00:16:54] sugar cane workers, Jesús,
[00:16:57] denounced that contributors are denied
[00:17:00] access to medical care. It is not
[00:17:03] fair, it is not possible that sugar cane workers who
[00:17:07] contributed to the social and economic development of the country
[00:17:10] and had social security deducted from their wages, now
[00:17:14] when they go to hospitals, they are denied
[00:17:17] care. We say that the government
[00:17:21] is obligated to provide healthcare to that
[00:17:25] population by presenting their work card
[00:17:28] and also their pension application. Why? Because these
[00:17:31] workers are the ones who truly founded
[00:17:35] social security in the Dominican
[00:17:38] Republic. This Sunday, the indigenous peoples of El
[00:17:41] Salvador gather to commemorate Resistance Day,
[00:17:45] which is celebrated this coming October 12. The
[00:17:48] activity takes place in the central square of Izalco, one of the
[00:17:52] towns with the largest indigenous population, seeking to highlight the
[00:17:56] heritage and resistance of a people that marked history. The
[00:17:59] gathering honors ancestors and recalls battles of
[00:18:03] resistance against the process of conquest and invasion in the
[00:18:06] region. Since October 12,
[00:18:09] 1492, 543 years
[00:18:12] have passed, which demonstrates the exact duration of the indifference and
[00:18:16] marginalization that indigenous communities received during the
[00:18:20] invasion of the Spanish
[00:18:21] colony.
[00:18:30] The ancestral council of the indigenous peoples of El
[00:18:33] Salvador commemorated this Sunday Indigenous Resistance Day.
[00:18:37] The meeting took place in Izalco, in the west of the
[00:18:40] country, one of the few localities that houses
[00:18:44] a small indigenous community. Our correspondent
[00:18:47] Roberto Hugo Presa informs
[00:18:49] us.
[00:18:52] Izalco is one of the few indigenous settlements of Pipil
[00:18:55] descent, one of the oldest and most representative of El Salvador.
[00:18:58] The central plaza was the scene this Sunday of a
[00:19:04] Day. We practically call it
[00:19:08] Resistance Day because
[00:19:11] since then, a way for our peoples to resist
[00:19:15] against that culture
[00:19:18] that was imposed and that continues to dominate, what we call
[00:19:22] the hegemonizing and homogenizing
[00:19:25] culture, right? That is
[00:19:28] imposed on our
[00:19:30] peoples.
[00:19:32] Rites, ancestral ceremonies,
[00:19:35] music, and exhibitions were the prelude to the discussion,
[00:19:39] "The world has not yet discovered America."
[00:19:42] We are showing that despite
[00:19:46] 530-something years, we are still alive,
[00:19:50] and today more than ever, telling
[00:19:53] states and peoples that they
[00:19:57] were wrong, they could not exterminate us, because
[00:20:00] at the core, the very roots of our
[00:20:04] existence, of our culture, of our...
[00:20:08] why not say it, of our peoples? They can't even
[00:20:11] visualize it.
[00:20:14] The indigenous peoples denounce the indifference and marginalization they have
[00:20:18] suffered for more than 500 years, and that is why they demand from
[00:20:21] the government. I believe that demanding
[00:20:24] or claiming what is truly
[00:20:27] ours, our rights, I don't see that we are
[00:20:31] talking about being against the government or anything like
[00:20:34] that.
[00:20:37] Youth and artists in solidarity with cultural identity lament that
[00:20:41] society, the state, and new generations are
[00:20:45] indifferent to their own
[00:20:48] the reasons is a structural issue, not
[00:20:51] intentional, for example, that we have been
[00:20:54] so invaded by technology and that this alienates
[00:20:58] us, deprives
[00:21:01] reality, and that in some way we lose
[00:21:04] collectivity. Every day fewer and fewer
[00:21:07] people like this music due
[00:21:11] to the excessive influence from outside with different
[00:21:14] musical genres, such as
[00:21:18] rap, reggaeton, and all that.
[00:21:23] Izalco is a town with a rich historical, cultural, and
[00:21:26] resistance heritage. In 1932, it was the
[00:21:29] epicenter of a peasant and indigenous uprising against the
[00:21:32] dispossession of communal lands, after a violent military
[00:21:35] repression. From this place, which is the cradle of indigenous
[00:21:39] resistance in El Salvador, the indigenous peoples of this country
[00:21:43] called on all ancestral communities in the
[00:21:46] world to continue fighting
[00:21:49] in defense of their rights.
[00:21:52] 534 years later, Roberto
[00:21:55] Hugo Presa, Telesur, Izalco, El
[00:21:58] Salvador.
[00:22:00] Citizens gathered at the rally of presidential candidate
[00:22:04] Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the political party La France
[00:22:08] Insoumise in a demonstration of strength by the French
[00:22:11] left. The event, held in a context of growing
[00:22:14] social and student mobilization against the Macron government's policies,
[00:22:18] served to affirm the unity of the progressive
[00:22:21] bloc and its agenda of social transformation.
[00:22:24] Mélenchon called for popular mobilization against cuts in
[00:22:28] education and public services, denouncing the disproportionate
[00:22:32] use of force against students. The
[00:22:35] concentration reflected the growing support for the proposals of the
[00:22:38] French left, which seeks to capitalize on social
[00:22:42] discontent in view of future electoral
[00:22:45] processes.
[00:22:51] Rome prepares for the start of the
[00:22:55] Nations Food and Agriculture Organization
[00:22:58] (FAO) with the presence of various Latin American
[00:23:01] leaders. From Italy, the details with Sergio Rodrigo.
[00:23:05] Rodrigo.
[00:23:08] Hello, good evening. Indeed, here in Rome, everything is
[00:23:11] ready for the plenary session, the main assembly
[00:23:15] of this World Food Forum,
[00:23:18] organized by the FAO, this United Nations organization for
[00:23:21] agriculture and food, one of the main and
[00:23:25] essential events that takes place here in Rome where the FAO has its
[00:23:28] permanent headquarters, one of its main headquarters,
[00:23:32] and in which different delegations from Latin
[00:23:36] America will participate, among them will be the
[00:23:39] president Delsy Rodríguez of Venezuela, who will participate in
[00:23:43] this main assembly and where she will also hold
[00:23:46] different multilateral agendas within this international
[00:23:49] forum, in which other political representatives
[00:23:52] from Latin America will also participate in that plenary, such
[00:23:56] as the president of Bolivia or the
[00:24:00] which, as I said, the main international
[00:24:04] delegations that are in this FAO world forum will participate,
[00:24:08] which, as I said, will start tomorrow around 12 noon.
[00:24:11] The Secretary General of this organization will kick
[00:24:14] off a week of debate on the
[00:24:18] sovereignty and food in the 21st century,
[00:24:22] but also the power of multilateralism against those
[00:24:25] who continue to criticize and discredit the United
[00:24:29] Nations at a very delicate time for these organizations. Tomorrow they will try
[00:24:33] to debate what are the great challenges of food here in
[00:24:36] Rome. Thank you, colleague Sergio Rodrigo,
[00:24:40] from Italy. By the way, the acting president of Venezuela, Delsy Rodríguez,
[00:24:44] arrived this Sunday in the city of Rome to participate in the World
[00:24:47] Food Forum of the United Nations Food and Agriculture
[00:24:51] Organization. After her arrival, the president
[00:24:55] highlighted the executive's commitment to food
[00:24:58] as an essential human right. Rodríguez also
[00:25:01] emphasized that agricultural production processes must be carried
[00:25:04] out with respect for nature, and mentioned that
[00:25:08] Venezuela seeks to consolidate important advances with the aim of
[00:25:11] to eradicate hunger. Until next October 16, more
[00:25:15] than 190 countries will participate in various debates
[00:25:18] focused on fighting malnutrition and
[00:25:22] creating strategies to optimize food production
[00:25:25] and mitigate the effects of climate
[00:25:27] change.
[00:25:32] We are here participating in the World Food
[00:25:35] Forum, highlighting the importance that Venezuela gives
[00:25:38] to food as a fundamental human right,
[00:25:42] highlighting the relevance of agricultural
[00:25:45] production processes that must be responsible and respectful of
[00:25:49] nature in all countries of the
[00:25:51] world. Venezuela has maintained economic
[00:25:54] growth since 2021 and is advancing in
[00:25:57] food security with more production and
[00:26:00] nutrition for the benefit of its citizens. Let's watch the following
[00:26:04] material.
[00:26:12] The Ministry of Popular Power for Food assures that
[00:26:15] Venezuela reduced undernourishment to
[00:26:18] 5.3% during the 2023-2025
[00:26:20] triennium,
[00:26:22] which translates into more than 1.5 million people
[00:26:25] benefiting. The nation is advancing in the multiplication of sovereign
[00:26:29] seeds adapted to complex agrometeorological variations,
[00:26:33] allowing it to exceed the UN goal, establishing
[00:26:36] 2,700 calories daily. It currently exceeded
[00:26:39] this figure with 3,300 calories per
[00:26:42] day. At the close of 2025, the South American
[00:26:45] country registered a primary food production of
[00:26:49] 22 million metric
[00:26:50] tons.
[00:26:53] Currently, Venezuela has a national supply rate of
[00:26:57] 99.5% and strategic food
[00:27:00] reserves for 101
[00:27:02] days.
[00:27:05] In the first 7 months of the year, food consumption increased by
[00:27:08] 9.6%, proteins increased by
[00:27:12] 11.80%, cereals by
[00:27:14] 4.78% and fats by
[00:27:18] 6.99%.
[00:27:22] For the start of the 2026-2027 school year, the
[00:27:25] Bolivarian government guaranteed
[00:27:29] schools throughout the country.
[00:27:33] These data are registered amid 22 consecutive quarters of economic growth,
[00:27:37] despite the more than one thousand unilateral coercive
[00:27:40] measures imposed against the country. From this
[00:27:44] 11th until Friday, October 16, the World Food Forum
[00:27:47] of the United Nations Organization for Food
[00:27:50] and Agriculture is being held in Rome, Italy, an
[00:27:54] opportunity for nations to expose their
[00:27:57] capabilities and limitations to guarantee food
[00:28:00] security. Let's look at the origin of this organization. It was founded on
[00:28:04] October 16, 1945 with the
[00:28:07] aim of uniting efforts among nations to eradicate
[00:28:11] hunger, promote agricultural sustainability, and sustainably
[00:28:15] manage natural resources. The FAO
[00:28:18] also focuses on providing technical assistance to countries,
[00:28:22] collecting global statistical data, coordinating
[00:28:25] policies, and responding to food crises
[00:28:28] or emergencies. It currently has at least 194
[00:28:32] members and works in 130 countries with the support of governments.
[00:30:05] And with this information on sports matters, we conclude this edition of
[00:30:08] Telesur Noticias. Thank you for joining us. Stay tuned to
[00:30:12] our multiplatform. Until next time.
