Our colleague Sergio Rodrigo brings us the [00:02:00] prepared for the plenary, the main assembly of [00:02:04] this world food forum organized by the FAO, this United [00:02:07] Nations organization for agriculture and food, one of the main and [00:02:11] primordial events that takes [00:02:13] commemorated this Sunday the day place here in Rome where the FAO has its permanent headquarters, [00:02:16] one of its main headquarters, and in which, in addition, different [00:02:20] delegations from Latin America will participate, among [00:02:24] them will be the president. [00:02:27] who will participate in this main assembly and where [00:02:31] she will also hold different multilateral agendas [00:02:35] within this international forum in which other political [00:02:39] representatives from Latin [00:02:41] it is only 10 meters, which America, such as the president of Bolivia or the Dominican [00:02:44] Republic, will also participate in that plenary and in [00:02:47] which, as I say, the main international [00:02:50] delegations that are in this FAO world forum will participate, [00:02:54] which, as I say, will start tomorrow around [00:02:58] 12 noon. it will be the Secretary General of this [00:03:01] organization who will kick off a week of debate on the challenge [00:03:05] of food sovereignty and food in the 21st century, [00:03:08] but also the power of multilateralism in the face of those [00:03:12] who continue to criticize and discredit the United [00:03:16] Nations at a very delicate moment for these organizations, [00:03:19] tomorrow they will try to debate what are the great [00:03:23] challenges of food here in [00:03:32] economic growth since 2021 and is advancing in [00:03:35] food security with more production and [00:03:38] nutrition for the benefit of citizens. Let's look at the following [00:03:42] material. [00:03:49] The Ministry of Popular Power for Food [00:03:52] assures that Venezuela reduced undernourishment to [00:03:56] 5.3% during the 2020-2025 [00:04:00] triennium, which translates into more than [00:04:04] 1.5 million people [00:04:06] benefited. [00:04:10] The nation is advancing in the multiplication of sovereign seeds [00:04:14] adapted to agrometeorological [00:04:16] variations, [00:04:19] through training and allowing it to exceed the goal of United Nations organizations that established in [00:04:23] 200700 daily [00:04:26] indifferent to their calories per person, after exceeding [00:04:29] 300, 300 calories per [00:04:31] day. At the close of [00:04:34] 2025, the South American country registered [00:04:38] a primary food production of 22 million [00:04:42] metric tons. [00:04:45] Currently, Venezuela has a national [00:04:48] supply rate of [00:04:50] 99.5%. [00:04:53] And strategic food reserves for more than 100 [00:04:56] days. In the first seven months of the [00:05:00] year, food consumption increased by [00:05:03] 9.6%. [00:05:05] Proteins increased by [00:05:08] 11.8%, [00:05:10] cereals by 4.5 [00:05:12] 78%, while fats increased [00:05:16] by 6.99%. [00:05:20] For the start of the [00:05:22] 2026-2027 school year, [00:05:24] the Bolivarian government guaranteed 2.5 [00:05:28] million meals distributed in schools throughout the country. [00:05:31] These data are registered amidst 22 [00:05:35] consecutive quarters of economic growth, [00:05:39] despite the more than one thousand unilateral coercive measures that are still [00:05:43] imposed against the country today. [00:05:46] Citizens gathered at the [00:05:48] rally of presidential candidate [00:05:52] Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the political party La France [00:05:56] Insoumise in a demonstration of strength of the French [00:05:59] left. The event, held in a context of growing [00:06:02] student social mobilization against Macron's government [00:06:06] policies, served to reaffirm the unity of the [00:06:10] progressive bloc and its agenda of [00:06:13] social transformation. Mélenchon called for [00:06:17] popular mobilization against cuts in education and [00:06:20] public services, denouncing the disproportionate use of [00:06:24] force against students. The concentration reflected [00:06:28] the growing support for the proposals of the French left [00:06:31] that seeks to capitalize on social discontent [00:06:35] in view of future electoral processes. [00:06:38] The presidential election will not be [00:06:46] a competition of technocrats who come to discuss [00:06:49] rates and figures, it will be a competition [00:06:53] of a vision of the world, we are going to found the sixth [00:06:57] republic, that of popular power, with the citizen referendum [00:07:00] and the revocatory referendum to kick out those [00:07:03] we no longer want, we are going to advance with the [00:07:07] flag and music at the forefront, to the frontiers of human [00:07:11] life, that is, in the sea, in space, in the [00:07:14] digital and in the understanding of what health is, [00:07:17] we are going to start creating the ecological state with [00:07:20] the ecoregions, we are going to found a new social [00:07:24] state with comprehensive social security, and above all, [00:07:27] we are going to found the society of mutual aid, [00:07:30] that in which we help each other all the time, [00:07:33] whether in family, among friends, among neighbors [00:07:37] or among people who want to dedicate themselves to the [00:07:40] common good, and above all, we are going to make the New [00:07:44] France triumph, that of all our children, without exception, [00:07:48] whatever their ancestors, their religions or their skin [00:07:51] colors, long live France, one and indivisible, long [00:08:19] and we will be back with more Telesur News. The Venezuelan people assume [00:08:23] their leading role at the polls this October 18. They [00:08:26] directly choose among more than 37 thousand projects, [00:08:30] those that should be executed in their communities to optimize [00:08:34] the collective quality of life, an electoral process that [00:08:37] consolidates participatory democracy.

[00:09:10] organizations call for national mobilizations to support [00:09:14] the re-election of Luis Ignacio Lula da Silva as a preventive [00:09:18] measure against a possible election of Flavio Bolsonaro. [00:09:21] Sao Paulo is the epicenter of massive mobilizations, [00:09:24] which promise to increase participation in the streets, [00:09:27] where a rally of candidate Flavio Bolsonaro has also [00:09:30] been held. President Luis Ignacio Lula da Silva [00:09:34] leads the proselytizing activities and mobilizations [00:09:38] on Avenida Paulista. In his bid for re-election, [00:09:41] the head of state is preparing to overcome the almost two-percentage-point [00:09:44] disadvantage registered in the first round, promoting [00:09:47] a climate of social mobilization and support for his [00:09:51] candidacy. Meanwhile, in Recife, the [00:09:54] capital of Pernambuco, [00:09:55] a crowd of supporters [00:10:03] mobilized to express their support for the re-election [00:10:07] of President Luis Ignacio Lula da Silva ahead of [00:10:10] the second electoral round on October 25. [00:10:14] The concentration brought together students, social [00:10:17] movements, culture workers, and political leaders. The massive [00:10:21] walk took place without the presence of the president, [00:10:25] who was in Sao Paulo leading another campaign event. [00:10:29] The far-right candidate Flavio Bolsonaro made a proselytizing [00:10:33] tour in Sao [00:10:41] Paulo ahead of the presidential second round. The son of [00:10:45] the former president, convicted of attempted coup, Jair [00:10:48] Bolsonaro. Met in a shopping center with mayors [00:10:52] from the metropolitan region, one of the most populated in [00:10:57] 20 million inhabitants. During the meeting, the [00:11:01] campaign members instructed the allied mayors to [00:11:04] intensify mobilization in their cities and thus ensure [00:11:08] that the voters who supported Flavio in the first round [00:11:11] return to the polls on October 25. During [00:11:16] saw a favorable outlook for the second round, [00:11:20] but urged his militants not to let their guard down. [00:11:23] I see a very positive scenario for the right [00:11:26] and I believe that Flavio [00:11:28] will win in the second [00:11:33] round in line with the result presented in the first [00:11:38] Our program Venezuela in [00:12:00] Movement Advances in its tour of the country, in its [00:12:04] stop in Miranda state, it learned about the productive [00:12:07] experience of the Ña Plácida commune. Our [00:12:10] colleague Michel Ramírez tells us the details. [00:12:13] In the center of Venezuela, Miranda state, Tuy valleys [00:12:17] region, is the town of Cua, founded in the year [00:12:20] 1690 and popularly known as the Pearl [00:12:23] of Tuy. This town, which has more than 170 [00:12:27] thousand inhabitants, stands out for two important reasons: [00:12:30] its historic center, with a statue of the hero Ezequiel [00:12:34] Zamora, and its people, [00:12:36] productive men and women. [00:12:45] Cuba is much more than these rural streets. In these [00:12:48] lands reside the women of the Añaplácida commune, an example [00:12:51] of strength and communal organization. Together they [00:12:55] have fought for their community for more than a decade and [00:12:59] every initiative has been born within the walls of their self-government [00:13:01] hall. The commune is my home, the comuneros [00:13:05] are my brothers, the contemporary comunera [00:13:08] sisters with me are my brothers, I have my [00:13:11] grandchildren within the commune, so for me the commune is a [00:13:14] home, a home where we are all [00:13:17] equals, and among equals we have [00:13:20] more, we have more capacity to [00:13:24] understand each other. And if we have any difficulties, [00:13:27] we are also capable of overcoming them, but together as a family. [00:13:31] So from the bottom of my heart I love my [00:13:34] commune and I love my comunero brothers, [00:13:37] comuneras and comuneros, because just as here [00:13:40] 80% is female and the majority of [00:13:43] self-government bodies are made up of women, my [00:13:46] male compañeros, the 20% male, [00:13:49] are also my comunero brothers, they also have a [00:13:53] sense of belonging and commitment [00:13:56] just like a woman and they defend women with tooth [00:13:59] and nail. So what can I say, my commune is my [00:14:02] home, my commune is my home and my comunero is my [00:14:06] family. During the pandemic a project was born, the [00:14:09] collection of solid waste so that its inhabitants live [00:14:13] in a clean and healthy space, and months later it [00:14:17] became a circular economy. We have built during [00:14:20] the last 8 years through the self-government system [00:14:24] with the participation of 16 communal councils, [00:14:27] a direct social property company that was born as [00:14:31] a solid waste plan, that plan continues to collect [00:14:35] 60 tons of waste in a self-managed [00:14:38] way, those 16 communal councils and [00:14:41] currently has managed, [00:14:44] organization, to form an EPS with the support [00:14:47] of Caricuado Caribe, who were our main trainers, [00:14:51] mainly our objective as a commune is to generate [00:14:54] a process of transformation with our mother earth, [00:14:57] to generate a process of transformation from the [00:15:01] citizen around nature, around our [00:15:04] territory as that main environment that gives [00:15:08] us life and that gives us [00:15:11] life and that [00:15:13] generates for all of us [00:15:17] the main inputs to develop ourselves as a people, [00:15:20] as a nation. The workforce is female. It is the [00:15:24] women who collect the waste in their communities and bring [00:15:28] it to the collection center and at the pace of the [00:15:31] scooter the journey begins until it reaches the [00:15:34] classification center. [00:15:42] They arrive at this green landscape with enthusiasm, [00:15:46] get to work and recycle what was once garbage. [00:15:49] We separate it into eight groups, each group [00:15:53] is made up of a product, for example [00:15:56] we have the PET that we call PET, which is the [00:15:59] plastic of chairs, the plastic of laundry baskets, [00:16:03] the plastic of kitchen utensils, we also have [00:16:06] blown plastic, which is this plastic, which are [00:16:10] shampoo bottles, chlorine bottles, paint [00:16:13] pots, we also have, apart because it is a material [00:16:16] that we cannot mix with others, what is the [00:16:20] plastic of butter tubs, Chinese rice, the plastic [00:16:24] of refrigerators, [00:16:27] this, all this process we do here with the spokespersons [00:16:31] who make up the EPS, the commune, those of us who [00:16:34] started with this project, once we have already weighed [00:16:38] it by communal council to know what quantity [00:16:41] each communal council has given us and to be [00:16:44] able to return it to them in what they [00:16:47] need, brushcutters for their dance group, lighting, [00:16:50] whatever they require and can afford with [00:16:54] the amount of material they have given us. The love for the [00:16:57] homeland, the environment, their Venezuelan brothers [00:17:01] and sisters has been the pillar that has sustained [00:17:05] their work. Love first, [00:17:07] the legacy left by our commander Rafael Hugo Chávez [00:17:11] Frías, which our president Nicolás Maduro is following [00:17:15] and now our president Decy Rodríguez as [00:17:17] in charge, to generate that, socialism, [00:17:20] unity, equality, social justice, [00:17:24] because if there is no [00:17:28] so that is what we want, the Ñaplace commune, [00:17:31] to generate 21st century socialism. With more than [00:17:34] 60 tons of recycled waste per month, they contribute [00:17:37] to the economic diversification of Miranda state, which [00:17:41] emerges for its agricultural, agro-industrial, manufacturing [00:17:44] and export sectors. The ancestral council of the [00:17:47] indigenous peoples of El Salvador [00:17:51] of indigenous resistance. The meeting was held [00:17:54] in Izalco, in the west of the country, one of [00:17:58] the few localities that houses a small indigenous [00:18:01] community. Our correspondent Roberto Hugo Presa [00:18:04] informs us. [00:18:07] It is one of the few indigenous settlements of Pipil ancestry, [00:18:11] the oldest and most representative of El Salvador. The central [00:18:15] plaza was the scene this Sunday of a meeting to commemorate [00:18:18] the day of resistance. We practically call it the day of [00:18:22] resistance because then begins [00:18:26] a way for our peoples to resist [00:18:29] that imposed culture that continues to dominate, [00:18:33] what we call the hegemonic, homogenizing, [00:18:37] and hegemonic culture, which is imposed on our [00:18:41] peoples. Rites, ancestral [00:18:45] ceremonies, music and exhibitions [00:18:48] were the prelude to the conversation, [00:18:51] the world has not yet discovered America, [00:18:55] we are showing you that despite [00:18:58] 530 odd years we have been here, [00:19:01] we are alive and today more than ever, [00:19:05] telling the states, [00:19:08] the peoples, that they were wrong, [00:19:11] they could not exterminate us, because [00:19:14] deep down the very roots of our existence, [00:19:17] of our culture, of our, why not say it, of our [00:19:21] peoples, they cannot even visualize [00:19:24] them. The indigenous [00:19:26] peoples denounce [00:19:29] the indifference and marginalization they have suffered [00:19:33] for more than 500 years and that is why they demand [00:19:36] from the government. I consider that to claim [00:19:39] or demand what actually belongs [00:19:43] to us, our rights, I don't see that we are [00:19:46] talking about being against the government or anything [00:19:49] like that. [00:19:52] The youth and artists in solidarity with cultural [00:19:56] identity lament that society, the state and [00:20:00] new generations are [00:20:03] own origins. I believe that one of the reasons is a structural issue, [00:20:08] it is not, for example, that we have been so invaded [00:20:12] by technology and that this alienates us so much, [00:20:15] for example, from reality and that in some way we [00:20:19] lose collectivity, every day there are fewer and [00:20:22] fewer people who like this music due to [00:20:26] the excessive influence from outside with different [00:20:29] musical genres, right, like rap, perreo [00:20:33] and all that. [00:20:34] Izalco is a town with [00:20:38] a rich historical, cultural and resistance [00:20:41] history. In 1932 it was the [00:20:44] epicenter of a peasant and indigenous uprising [00:20:47] against the dispossession of communal lands after a slow [00:20:50] military repression. From this place, which is [00:20:54] the cradle of indigenous resistance in El Salvador, [00:20:58] the indigenous peoples of this country called on [00:21:01] all ancestral communities in the world to continue [00:21:04] fighting in defense of their rights, [00:21:07] 534 years later. Roberto [00:21:10] Hugo Presa, Telesur, Izalco, El [00:21:13] Salvador. An earthquake of magnitude [00:21:16] 7.5 and a hundred aftershocks shook Panama on [00:21:20] Friday, October 9, and left more than 400 [00:21:24] affected homes throughout the country, although so [00:21:28] far no fatalities have been reported. The government [00:21:31] declared a state of emergency and mobilized national [00:21:35] and international aid to the hardest-hit provinces. Our colleague [00:21:39] Reca Chandiramani tells [00:21:42] us. An earthquake of magnitude 7.5 on the Richter [00:21:45] scale shook Panama this Friday. The first [00:21:49] event was registered at 12:56 local time [00:21:53] on October 9 with an epicenter near Tonosí in the province [00:21:56] of Los Santos in the south of the country, about 5 [00:22:02] The earthquake was felt in at least nine of the [00:22:06] 10 provinces and caused [00:22:10] In Panama City, thousands of people evacuated skyscrapers, [00:22:13] businesses, and offices. I was the first one who [00:22:16] realized it in my living room, I said, oh, it's shaking [00:22:20] and hard, let's all run and we all went [00:22:23] to the sidewalk, there we saw people running, [00:22:27] the people from Lidan went outside, the buildings [00:22:30] were moving from one side to another, the truth is [00:22:34] that it was very, very, very, very scary, [00:22:36] I was very scared, it was a feeling that [00:22:40] I should never have experienced, when we felt the second [00:22:43] one and saw the cars start to move, the [00:22:47] building started to collapse, people started to run, [00:22:50] people who didn't have canes, they forgot about [00:22:54] canes and they ran to the floor, [00:22:58] we had to help them up, but thank [00:23:01] God, at least in the Viva España area, [00:23:05] it was quite evacuated. As of Saturday, no fatalities [00:23:08] or disappearances were reported. The authorities did [00:23:11] register at least 27 people with [00:23:14] injuries ranging from moderate to serious. [00:23:17] However, [00:23:20] they kept the population on edge for more than [00:23:23] 24 hours. Many neighbors also had to sleep outside. [00:23:27] So we are entering, going up, some are no [00:23:31] longer going down today, but we are still vigilant, [00:23:34] unexpected, I think that here in Panama something [00:23:38] like this was not expected, much less by me, [00:23:42] it was not something very serious, more than [00:23:44] 400 homes were affected throughout the country, [00:23:48] in addition to 188 schools and damage to [00:23:52] hospitals, churches, and government buildings. [00:23:55] The cathedral of San Juan Bautista de Penonomé, [00:23:59] in the center of the country, lost one of its towers [00:24:02] and one side of the Coclé government collapsed. [00:24:05] Tocumen airport suspended operations for [00:24:09] a few hours, while the Panama Canal continued [00:24:12] to operate. The provinces where more residences have [00:24:16] been registered are Herrera, Los Santos, Veraguas, [00:24:20] where we also have island areas, Cañas Island, [00:24:24] which was affected by the increase in water level [00:24:27] and had to evacuate 300 people. The government [00:24:31] declared a state of emergency to facilitate assistance [00:24:35] for up to $100 million. The President of the Republic [00:24:38] gave clear instructions that all ministers [00:24:41] and institutions be available [00:24:44] and with resources for solidarity aid [00:24:47] to all those affected: this Saturday, national [00:24:51] and international aid began to be mobilized [00:24:54] to the provinces of Coclé, Veraguas, and Los Santos, [00:24:58] small planes loaded with water, tents, dry [00:25:01] food, and essential supplies that are being [00:25:04] collected at the capital's mayor's office and in [00:25:08] Omar Park. Classes are suspended this [00:25:12] Monday, while the government assesses the damage and [00:25:15] establishes assistance protocols in the coming days. [00:25:18] For Telesur, from Panama City, Reca [00:25:21] Chandiramani. Mexico maintains the [00:25:25] alert despite Hurricane Simon, category 4, [00:25:29] slightly modifying its trajectory and remaining [00:25:32] off the coast of Cabo Corrientes in the city [00:25:35] of Jalisco. The National Civil Protection Coordinator [00:25:39] Laura Velázquez Alshua warned that its effects [00:25:42] will continue this Sunday and Monday in the [00:25:45] coastal region, especially south of Puerto Vallarta, [00:25:49] with intense winds, high waves and storm [00:25:52] surge, so she called on the population to continue [00:25:55] sheltering and follow the instructions of the authorities. [00:25:59] In the same vein, President Claudia Sheinbaum reiterated [00:26:03] the call to protect themselves until the danger [00:26:06] passes and stressed that preventive evacuations [00:26:09] to safe areas continue with the priority of [00:26:13] saving lives. [00:26:20] At least 139 people have died, among them [00:26:24] 15 children, after a migrant boat [00:26:27] sank off the coast of Djibouti. The International [00:26:30] Organization for Migration [00:26:32] reported that 84 people are still missing, [00:26:36] noting that women, men, and children were traveling [00:26:39] on board. Search and rescue efforts continue on the [00:26:43] beach thanks to the personal belongings that [00:26:46] probably belonged to the missing. The [00:26:49] boat was heading to Yemen, despite the [00:26:52] region being in an armed [00:26:54] conflict. [00:27:17] The demarcation and control zone established by the Israeli [00:27:20] military forces, known as the yellow [00:27:23] line, expanded towards the western part of the [00:27:27] Palestinian neighborhood of Shuhaiya. Various sectors that [00:27:30] were previously on the borders or outside the [00:27:34] area militarized by Israel suddenly became part [00:27:37] of the control perimeter or imminent risk of [00:27:41] incursion. This modification and proximity [00:27:44] to the strategic Salah Aldin street provoked a [00:27:48] new wave of forced displacement among the inhabitants [00:27:51] who still remained in the east of the Gaza [00:27:54] Strip. The advance of this barrier directly affects [00:27:58] internal connectivity and increases the [00:28:01] vulnerability of the Palestinian population due to the [00:28:05] narrowing of the areas considered [00:28:07] safe. [00:28:13] Those who live here in the camp are all families [00:28:16] and this camp lacks all types of [00:28:19] services. The situation of the families is extremely [00:28:23] difficult and due to the lack of space in western [00:28:27] Gaza, these families came here. [00:28:30] Now all the families here [00:28:32] suffer from shootings, the incursion of military vehicles and the fall of [00:28:36] projectiles. The yellow line was 200 [00:28:40] meters from us and today [00:28:43] represents a danger for anyone who is in this [00:28:46] camp. [00:28:50] There is nothing left here, only destruction. Look at all this [00:28:53] ruin, they have made us suffer too much, we don't know where [00:28:56] to go. Look here how a part of the building fell on our [00:29:00] belongings, we are exhausted. [00:29:04] We want a place to live in peace, we are very, very [00:29:07] tired. Let's change the topic. The acting president [00:29:10] of Venezuela, Delhi Rodríguez, offered a [00:29:14] balance of the first 100 days of the Venezuela [00:29:17] Renace Plan. Among the highlights are the rehabilitation and delivery [00:29:20] of homes to the most affected, implementation of health [00:29:24] plans and the repair of damages, as well as [00:29:27] comprehensive care for the people affected by the [00:29:30] earthquakes. Likewise, the acting president affirmed that those [00:29:34] who are still in camps will soon [00:29:37] have a home, since the national government is [00:29:41] working to respond to the families who hope to recover [00:29:44] their homes. Rodríguez reaffirmed the commitment of the Bolivarian [00:29:48] government to the recovery of the country and the well-being of the Venezuelan [00:29:51] people, emphasizing that Venezuela is reborn with the [00:29:55] union of all sectors.
