[00:00:06] Decisions made by our rulers that hit our pockets.
[00:00:09] Ecuador, the business sector, warns about the negative
[00:00:13] impact of continuous electrical interruptions on
[00:00:17] production throughout the country. The Ecuadorian business
[00:00:20] committee indicated that the extension of scheduled disconnections
[00:00:24] from 48 to 72 hours a week threatens
[00:00:27] thousands of jobs and the income of numerous families. The
[00:00:31] lack of regular production shifts puts jobs
[00:00:34] and income at risk.
[00:00:38] Exports, they affirm, are
[00:00:41] unfortunately expected to have negative consequences.
[00:00:44] 75% of the volume of exported cargo corresponds to

[00:00:56] Rey Gómez said minutes ago that the Cuban government
[00:00:59] promoted an economic reform that seeks to increase production,
[00:01:03] decentralize management, expand opportunities for private
[00:01:08] bravery and struggle of and cooperative actors. These authorities also say that the reform has
[00:01:11] 158 of the 176
[00:01:14] transformations already approved and in the implementation

[00:03:22] the world from the south, I'll tell you,
[00:03:25] we take you beyond the news, we take you to the
[00:03:28] events that set the pace. Because Telesur always gives
[00:03:32] more, Telesur presents a journey through the world of
[00:03:35] social networks and the digital universe, discover the
[00:03:38] mysteries and dangers that hide behind screens and discover the
[00:03:42] benefits of these platforms.
[00:03:45] Entangled, a program about advances that go beyond
[00:03:49] the trend. Every
[00:03:51] Saturday, only on
[00:03:54] Telesur.
[00:04:07] everything that has been seen as a result of
[00:04:22] economy, this added to what
[00:04:31] This announcement was the announcement of the weekend, US President Donald
[00:04:35] Trump indicated an energy ceasefire agreement between Russia and
[00:04:39] Ukraine. Both parties supposedly commit to
[00:04:43] ceasing attacks against the energy infrastructure of the
[00:04:46] adversary, let's say, and it will be with immediate
[00:04:50] effect. Telesur shows you, Trump announces
[00:04:54] immediate energy truce between Russia and Ukraine after
[00:04:57] tensions over diesel agreement. There
[00:05:01] is also the information and the image. We are talking
[00:05:04] specifically about the same thing, what I just
[00:05:07] sources of income, in fact it is already being talked about, no, what told you, I'm going to the next information portal,
[00:05:10] Hispan TV, there you have it, criticism grows against
[00:05:13] Trump for his agreement to buy Russian diesel.
[00:05:17] US Senators denounce that this agreement
[00:05:21] violates the law and demand that it be revoked
[00:05:24] immediately. Political representatives describe the
[00:05:27] agreement as illegal and unconstitutional for circumventing
[00:05:31] the attributions of the US
[00:05:34] Congress. Al Mayadeen shows you Trump demands
[00:05:37] elections in Ukraine, questions Zelensky's
[00:05:40] continuity. And Zelensky is indeed
[00:05:44] on thin
[00:05:45] ice.
[00:05:52] José Leveña is in Washington, he'll give us more information,
[00:05:54] welcome.
[00:05:57] President Donald Trump announced that Russia and Ukraine commit to immediately suspending
[00:06:01] attacks against the adversary's energy
[00:06:04] infrastructure. A truce that, if materialized, would seek to protect key
[00:06:08] facilities for the supply of electricity and fuel
[00:06:12] in a conflict that has recurrently affected the energy
[00:06:15] capacity of both countries, but the announcement also raises questions
[00:06:19] about Washington's strategy towards Moscow. Just two
[00:06:23] days earlier, on October 9, the Donald Trump administration announced an
[00:06:27] agreement for Russia to supply 4.8
[00:06:30] million tons of diesel to the United States and the global
[00:06:33] market. In addition, the Treasury Department issued a temporary license that
[00:06:37] authorizes transactions related to these
[00:06:40] supplies until April 7 of next year. Thus,
[00:06:44] while Washington promotes a truce in the war, it also opens
[00:06:47] spaces for energy operations with Russia, despite
[00:06:51] the confrontation it maintains with Moscow over the invasion of Ukraine. At
[00:06:56] attacked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and even
[00:07:00] publicly suggested that Ukraine should change
[00:07:03] presidents. The US president argued
[00:07:06] that Zelensky could have ended the war on several occasions,
[00:07:10] but chose not to. He also questioned Ukrainian
[00:07:14] attacks against Russian refineries, assuring that these
[00:07:17] operations create problems for the entire
[00:07:20] world, accusations that put pressure back on
[00:07:25] House administration seeks to promote a negotiated solution to the
[00:07:28] conflict. From Moscow, the Russian government expressed its
[00:07:32] support for the idea of an energy ceasefire, although it warned that declarations
[00:07:35] must be translated into actions. For now, Donald
[00:07:39] Trump's announcement offers a new possibility to limit damage to
[00:07:42] energy infrastructure, but its scope will depend on both
[00:07:46] parties fulfilling what was agreed. Meanwhile,
[00:07:50] Washington's diplomacy advances amidst calls to stop attacks, energy
[00:07:53] agreements with Moscow, and direct pressure
[00:07:56] on the Ukrainian government. In Washington, José
[00:07:59] Leveña, Telesur. Thank
[00:08:02] you very much, Carlos Mamani joins us for the analysis, sociologist, geopolitical
[00:08:06] analyst, how are you?
[00:08:10] Good morning, it's a pleasure to be here again. and on Telesur, from
[00:08:14] Moscow. Let's talk about the repercussions of this announcement, please.
[00:08:17] Well, the first thing we could say is
[00:08:21] that knowing the discourse and the
[00:08:25] objective attitudes of US President Donald Trump,
[00:08:28] we couldn't be very optimistic about it. In fact,
[00:08:32] what he is mentioning, a supposed energy truce, an energy
[00:08:36] ceasefire, is a purely circumstantial
[00:08:39] matter, conjunctural and,
[00:08:42] above all, unilateral, no, this has not been recognized, at least
[00:08:46] from the Russian perspective, they have not officially pronounced themselves, they have not
[00:08:50] endorsed it, much less so,
[00:08:53] of course, so as I reiterate, no, this ultimately responds to
[00:08:57] a conjunctural
[00:08:59] calculation where the United States is going through a very
[00:09:03] critical moment, mainly its United
[00:09:06] States in general and particularly the Trump administration, no,
[00:09:10] given that,
[00:09:12] precisely because of its warlike adventures in the Middle East
[00:09:16] influenced by Israel and
[00:09:20] the Iranian symmetric war
[00:09:22] response controlling its geography, which is the
[00:09:25] Strait of Hormuz, and therefore the flow of
[00:09:29] world oil, no, this has paralyzed a large part of the world
[00:09:34] is still being seen, so in such a way that Donald Trump is the most practical
[00:09:38] solution he has, let's not forget the political context within the United States.
[00:09:42] Which is precisely the November midterm elections where everyone is already
[00:09:46] pointing to him not coming out well, so what he is most interested in
[00:09:50] at this moment, in this critical juncture within
[00:09:54] the United States, is to stabilize the price of diesel and
[00:09:58] to, no, or contain in some way the rampant information that
[00:10:01] the United States is currently suffering from, no, that's on the US
[00:10:05] side, now with respect to the Kremlin, with respect to Moscow, with respect to the
[00:10:09] Russian Federation, well, Russia has nothing to lose at
[00:10:12] all. to
[00:10:16] access significant
[00:10:19] is true and objective is 300,000 tons
[00:10:23] to begin with, of what would be a total of about 4.8 million
[00:10:27] tons, no, 300,000 to begin with,
[00:10:30] 500,000 tons in November and then a million, that is, we are talking
[00:10:34] about immense sources of income for the Kremlin, which
[00:10:37] well, be that as it may, no, be the issue that is being seen in Ukraine
[00:10:41] is also a drain on the country's economy, no, beyond
[00:10:44] all the issues that are seen within the country that
[00:10:48] can indeed be coped with by the Kremlin, no, but it is
[00:10:52] not wrong economically to open a new
[00:10:55] escape valve, no, for all the situation that is being experienced in Russia,
[00:10:59] no, as a result of a conflict with NATO through Ukraine, which is different
[00:11:03] from posing it only through Ukraine, so
[00:11:06] there we have a picture where on the one hand, the United States has a
[00:11:10] concrete conjunctural objective, Russia also has it, and at the same time
[00:11:14] that Russia, well,
[00:11:17] their heads that they want to wage war, well, we talk to the ringmaster who
[00:11:21] is still the United States, no, so that now
[00:11:25] Ukraine and the European Union feel increasingly
[00:11:29] indignant about the position of the United States and the Trump
[00:11:32] administration to the point that they consider that it is no longer their
[00:11:36] reliable partner, no. I think that, as I said at
[00:11:39] the beginning and I reiterate, this must be seen in perspective, no,
[00:11:43] we cannot think that a solution to conjunctural
[00:11:47] problems both within Russia and within the United
[00:11:50] States can lead to the solution to
[00:11:53] geopolitical problems of structural
[00:11:56] nature, no. I think that the
[00:11:59] issue around Ukraine is little by little being
[00:12:03] overcome, no, it is already being said that the war in Ukraine can end at any
[00:12:06] time. I would have reservations about that, because
[00:12:10] I am one of those who think, and there are also analysts in Russia who are already
[00:12:13] seeing it this way, that the conflict in Ukraine could move to a phase of
[00:12:19] NATO directly, specifically with European NATO, so
[00:12:22] this situation we are seeing between the United States and Russia is a conjunctural
[00:12:26] matter, it will not solve the structural problems that drive
[00:12:30] geopolitics in these parts of the world, in this eastern plate of Eastern Europe for
[00:12:34] geopolitics, one of the most important, which
[00:12:37] I believe, from my perspective, will not be solved, no,
[00:12:40] from an approach, an
[00:12:43] attempt to solidify the issue at a
[00:12:46] conjunctural level, no, the problems are much deeper, the gesture is not bad,
[00:12:50] of course, it is always welcome, but being realistic, we have to
[00:12:54] see things as they are, no, the reality is what we have and not what we would like
[00:12:58] to have.
[00:13:00] talking about that reality they would like to have, who was left with
[00:13:04] the truncated possibility of sitting down
[00:13:07] to negotiate now with Russia precisely on the
[00:13:11] energy issue,
[00:13:13] this puts them in a very unfavorable position, that is,
[00:13:16] Russia is in a position of direct dialogue
[00:13:20] with the United States, Ukraine
[00:13:23] is with the European Union which supplied it with weapons, which
[00:13:27] has not achieved military results
[00:13:30] and is also not buying Russian
[00:13:33] gas, we are talking about a very complex situation in terms of
[00:13:37] energy, specifically,
[00:13:39] Carlos,
[00:13:42] yes, indeed, no, due to geopolitics, due to geography,
[00:13:45] it is natural for Europe to have good relations with Russia,
[00:13:49] no, in fact if one reviews a bit of history one realizes that in the
[00:13:52] historical phases where they have done best is when Russia and Europe have had
[00:13:56] better relations and when they have had bad relations, those who have always
[00:14:00] fared worse have been the Europeans rather than the Russians,
[00:14:03] no, this already transcends
[00:14:06] the issue we are now seeing of this rapprochement between Donald Trump and
[00:14:10] Vladimir Putin, Russia, United States, due to
[00:14:13] a very simple matter, no, within the United States I always avoid in
[00:14:17] analyses falling into personalisms, into presidentialisms, thinking that the
[00:14:21] foreign policy of the United States responds
[00:14:24] only to the administrator
[00:14:28] in office, mind you, the category
[00:14:30] is key, no, administration, administrator, they are people
[00:14:34] who come and go, so both the Biden administration and the
[00:14:38] Trump administration are people who, well, are leaders who enter at some point and then
[00:14:41] leave, what we have to see here is that US foreign policy has not
[00:14:45] responded for a long time to the
[00:14:48] interests of a specific president, no, this already
[00:14:51] deeply transcends, some talk about the deep state or
[00:14:55] what Eisenhower called at the time the military-industrial
[00:14:59] complex which in my opinion and I think that of other
[00:15:02] analysts are those who really manage US foreign
[00:15:06] policy, increasingly disconnected from its domestic policy, so
[00:15:09] now Europe, as you rightly mention, is going through a very
[00:15:13] complicated situation, no, they, the
[00:15:16] welfare state that they generated, that they
[00:15:19] boasted about for decades, no, after the Second World
[00:15:23] War, during the Cold War,
[00:15:25] for a geopolitical calculation to prevent the advance of the Eastern bloc,
[00:15:29] communism over Western Europe, capitalism
[00:15:32] invented the welfare state, no, what do we see now, after
[00:15:35] the fall of the Soviet Union onwards and after the current geopolitical
[00:15:39] dynamics of strategic confrontation against the Russian
[00:15:42] Federation, that welfare state is being dismantled, a symptom of
[00:15:46] that, not unique, but one of the most categorical is what you mentioned, the energy
[00:15:50] issue, no, where has it been seen that, for example, Germany, for
[00:15:53] example, no, a country that was a pioneer in nuclear
[00:15:57] energy, renewable energy, well, now
[00:16:00] unfortunately for them, no, they have shot
[00:16:03] themselves in the foot and have a situation where it is practically
[00:16:08] de-industrializing, at least in civil matters, but
[00:16:10] curiously they de-industrialize in
[00:16:14] civil terms, but at the same time they are
[00:16:17] financing and re-financing and producing weaponry for a
[00:16:21] potential conflict with the Russian Federation until 2030, no,
[00:16:25] that is the situation we have in Europe, a Europe that is
[00:16:28] completely out of its mind, I don't know if I should call it leadership because
[00:16:32] we have people in France in the streets, students
[00:16:34] who are quite problematic, no, within against governments in Germany
[00:16:38] we see how those so-called parties that are supposedly far-right are growing,
[00:16:41] which they classify as populist right, far-right, but which in
[00:16:45] reality question the way in which
[00:16:49] the European Union has been managing the policy of the bloc of
[00:16:52] the European bloc and above all relations with Russia
[00:16:56] at an energy level, no, there are parties like the AFD in Germany that
[00:17:00] advocate for good relations with Russia in a pragmatic
[00:17:03] way, no, and not only them, there is also a left wing of Mrs. Wagenknecht
[00:17:07] that also advocates for rapprochement with Russia in energy terms, no, so
[00:17:11] we are seeing a post-ideological and truly
[00:17:14] pragmatic moment, anyone would think, well, more
[00:17:18] problems within Europe with all these mobilizations that are being seen in
[00:17:21] France, the new political configurations in
[00:17:24] Germany, for example, of the most important countries within the European
[00:17:27] Union, we would say, well, yes, they will calm down, no, I think quite
[00:17:31] the opposite, no, the more social, economic,
[00:17:34] energy problems within Europe, the more
[00:17:38] a rearmament and Russophobia
[00:17:42] against the historical enemy that they want to portray, as always, as Russia in this case, it
[00:17:46] suits them well at this moment, always the external enemy to,
[00:17:49] well, continue to lull
[00:17:52] their population with a narrative and discourse of permanent
[00:17:55] war so that the problems they are suffering at a political,
[00:17:59] social, and economic level are precisely minimized before
[00:18:02] that supposed external enemy, no, before which I
[00:18:06] believe that Russia, Russia's strategic
[00:18:09] patience could run out at any moment, I think I am one of those who
[00:18:12] think that the fact that Russia has not responded categorically to
[00:18:16] those who are behind Ukraine, that is the root of the conflict,
[00:18:20] that can end at any moment, not from the West, from Europe,
[00:18:23] from England, let's not forget the role of the British in all this, those intelligence
[00:18:27] agencies, that Russia will not respond, that it has not done so until
[00:18:31] now and will not do so, but I believe that they are being too confident
[00:18:34] and that at any moment this could change, no, I say this
[00:18:38] because the energy issue must be framed within this great geopolitical
[00:18:41] confrontation, it is an important, determining factor, but not
[00:18:44] absolute within the equation that we are now facing, no, or that
[00:18:48] is being seen between Europe and the Russian Federation, where the United
[00:18:52] States, as it has done historically, disclaims responsibility,
[00:18:55] no, we saw it in the Second World War, it witnessed how Europe
[00:18:59] bled on the other side of the Atlantic, it seems that history is
[00:19:02] repeating itself, not mentioning that also on the part of Europe, they
[00:19:06] understand their security, in inverted commas, their security no longer passes
[00:19:10] through the Washington administration, but that they have
[00:19:14] to develop strategic capabilities to face
[00:19:17] Russia, no, well that's the situation we have, it's a situation that, as
[00:19:21] I said at the beginning, we cannot understand as a purely conjunctural
[00:19:25] matter, no, there are structural cases, no, that are long-term,
[00:19:28] and I believe that the international system has entered
[00:19:31] an equation of prolonged wars that will not end
