Kennedy presented him with with the first amendment of of the conservative CDU will be decisive for the political leadership [00:01:28] of Chancellor Mers. [00:01:33] The Matagalls Montserrat has had to modify its route to end up killing a pear [00:01:37] due to environmental restrictions, the itinerary [00:01:41] is reduced from 82 to 60 km to protect the natural [00:01:44] environment. [00:02:45] Sunday of summer, with stability and September [00:02:49] heat. Temperatures will rise a little more with values [00:02:52] close to 33 degrees in the warmest [00:02:56] areas. Sun with some thin clouds in the north of the country. [00:03:08] Good morning, Carles Puigdemont says that when he returns to Catalonia he will dedicate himself to [00:03:12] traveling the territory to take its pulse by doing [00:03:16] a listening process and then he will decide what political [00:03:19] steps to take. In an interview with the British [00:03:22] newspaper The Sunday Times published today, he says [00:03:26] that this is his plan, which he has been saying for a long time. and [00:03:30] that he will execute it [00:03:32] Follow me and discover the legend of its as long as the Spanish courts apply the amnesty to him that the Spanish [00:03:35] Cortes approved at the time. It had been more than a year since he had not [00:03:38] granted any interview, he does so now with less than 2 years [00:03:42] until the next Catalan elections to decide the [00:03:45] future, he says he first wants to gauge the sentiment of the [00:03:49] country. [00:03:54] i try to be in contact with my [00:03:56] but also with President Radelles, with the world of team, with the people in order to understand exactly what is going on in Catalonia but i [00:04:00] know it's not the same to smell, to touch, to [00:04:04] feel, to be among the [00:04:06] people, that is my first [00:04:10] intention when i arrive some of immersion in [00:04:13] the reality to to touch [00:04:17] again, [00:04:22] Pedro Sánchez and Feijó coincide today with two political events [00:04:26] here in Catalonia, the leader of the will intervene this afternoon at the festival of... [00:04:30] Agabar and will be accompanied by Salvador Illa, while the president [00:04:34] of the PP will attend a party event in Badalona with [00:04:37] Alejandro Fernández. [00:04:40] cellists of the early century, that is Both arrive in Catalonia, at the beginning of the political year with mutual [00:04:43] reproaches such as the humanitarian crisis or the alleged [00:04:47] corruption cases of the two major Spanish [00:04:50] parties. In addition, both Sánchez and Feijó are aware of the [00:04:54] important role that the votes of Catalans play in the congress [00:04:57] with 48 deputies and that, as you know,... next year there will be general [00:05:01] elections. [00:05:10] We go outside, at least. women have died and about twenty have been injured in [00:05:14] Moscow and its region in an offensive with hundreds of [00:05:18] drones that Russia attributes to Ukraine. The operation has [00:05:22] also affected the oil refinery that had already been [00:05:25] the target of other incursions. According to [00:05:27] Russian authorities, anti-aircraft defenses have shot down [00:05:31] nearly 400 drones heading [00:05:35] the capital, Sergei Sobianin, has [00:05:37] described the events as the most intense drone [00:05:40] attack against the capital. Sobianin has assured that [00:05:44] the objective was to interrupt the last day of the legislative [00:05:48] elections that are being held this weekend. Ukraine has [00:05:51] not yet commented on these [00:05:54] events. [00:05:59] These elections, as we say, are marked, [00:06:02] also today by this electronic vote. The pacifist [00:06:06] Yabloko Party has been banned by the authorities, the [00:06:09] communists and the opposition in exile have asked the population to [00:06:13] vote, not to rely on the electronic [00:06:16] system that they consider an instrument of fraud, nor [00:06:19] on the votes that have been cast so far, warning that in [00:06:23] some polling stations in Moscow there are no [00:06:26] 1,500 representatives have not been able to access the voting [00:06:29] centers, in addition to also suffering [00:06:32] threats. The polling stations will close around 8 [00:06:36] in the evening and then the count will begin, although no [00:06:39] surprises are expected... and [00:06:43] forecasts indicate that United Russia, Vladimir [00:06:46] Putin's party, will win again, surpassing [00:06:50] 50% of the [00:06:51] votes. [00:06:55] And today there are also elections in Germany, in Berlin, and in Mecklenburg, [00:06:58] Western Pomerania. Polls point to a strong growth of the far [00:07:02] right Alternative for Germany. Regional elections [00:07:05] that could also further question the leadership of Chancellor [00:07:09] Mers, if the conservatives of the CDU have [00:07:12] bad results, as already happened two weeks ago in [00:07:16] Saxony-Anhalt. [00:07:19] Since 8 in the morning, polling stations have been open here in Berlin [00:07:23] and also in Mecklenburg, Western Pomerania. And in fact, we can already [00:07:26] give you a first headline, which is that the far-right Alternative for Germany, according to the [00:07:30] polls, would double its results. The big difference is that [00:07:33] neither of the two places will be able to govern. In [00:07:37] Berlin, the novelty would be a new mayor, Ellie Feralp, a German [00:07:40] lawyer of Turkish origin who could govern for the first [00:07:44] time a city [00:07:47] SPD, she is part of The Left Party, of the radical [00:07:50] left. Her electoral [00:07:54] campaign has focused on issues such as rent, very important here in [00:07:57] Berlin, eh, garbage collection or the [00:08:00] price of public transport. In Mecklenburg, [00:08:03] Western Pomerania, there is a close race between socialists and Alternative for [00:08:07] Germany, but attention is especially focused on the results of the CDU, if [00:08:11] they fall below... which at the moment the polls do not [00:08:15] suggest, but if they fall below this 5%, they are at 6 [00:08:18] or 7 depending on the poll, eh, the party could be left out of the [00:08:22] regional parliament and this would be a complete defeat for the conservatives [00:08:26] with consequences here in Berlin. In fact, some [00:08:29] believe that it could unleash the replacement of Chancellor [00:08:32] Friedrich Merz here in the capital. The [00:08:35] outcome of all this from 6 [00:08:37] o'clock. [00:08:48] Tonight at 30 minutes in the report: the earth [00:08:52] burns. Two teams from the program have followed the simultaneous fires [00:08:55] this summer in the Gavarres in Northern Catalonia. Firefighters [00:08:59] warn that fires are faster and unpredictable and [00:09:03] this forces them to adapt to a new scenario marked by high [00:09:06] temperatures and also the persistence of heat. [00:09:09] The report also raises the... [00:09:20] In the last 30 years, Catalonia has lost 20% of its cultivated [00:09:24] land. [00:09:29] Oxfam Intermón celebrates 70 years with a major event in [00:09:32] Barcelona. The entity, founded in 1956, warns [00:09:36] that the increase in extreme wealth puts [00:09:39] rights, democracy and humanitarian aid at risk. According to [00:09:43] the organization, the richest 1% of Catalonia concentrates [00:09:46] 23% of the wealth, while [00:09:50] four out of 10 Catalans do not make it to the end of [00:09:53] the month. Oxfam Intermón currently works in 77 [00:09:57] countries, and in the last year has supported more than 14 million people. [00:10:00] persones. [00:10:06] And more news, a Girona court has decreed [00:10:09] the closed regime internment for the minor, 17 years old, [00:10:13] arrested on Friday for the rape of a woman in [00:10:17] Vidreres, in La Selva. The young man has been placed at the disposal of the Juvenile Prosecutor's [00:10:20] Office and the police maintain an open investigation. The [00:10:24] events would have happened last Saturday, the victim [00:10:27] had gone out for a run when the young man assaulted her near the [00:10:30] Aiguaviva Parc urbanization, threatened her with an [00:10:34] object and sexually [00:10:35] assaulted her. [00:10:40] And two men aged 42 and 50 have been arrested by the police [00:10:44] as alleged perpetrators of four aggravated robberies in [00:10:47] shops in Poblenou, the investigators would have [00:10:50] identified them, thanks, among other things, to video [00:10:53] surveillance cameras. Both [00:10:56] accumulate more than a hundred police records for [00:11:00] similar acts. The robberies occurred during August and the [00:11:04] detainees have already been brought before [00:11:06] the court. [00:11:16] The White House has already made effective the ban on three media outlets [00:11:20] including CNN, which Trump accuses of spreading false [00:11:25] House correspondent, Betty Klein, explained live [00:11:29] that her accreditation had been deactivated [00:11:32] and confiscated and that she had been denied access to the premises. [00:11:36] The same has happened with journalists from MS-Nau [00:11:39] and the digital portal Politico. The three media [00:11:42] are studying legal actions and various press law experts [00:11:46] consider that the measure may conflict [00:11:50] the United States Constitution, which protects freedom [00:11:53] of expression. [00:11:59] Artificial intelligence fully enters esotericism [00:12:03] and deepens the debate on the control over this technology, a global [00:12:06] fever with its epicenter in South Korea where robots [00:12:10] and digital avatars are replacing shamans [00:12:13] and fortune tellers of all [00:12:15] time. From the crystal ball to [00:12:19] the algorithm. In Seoul, consulting the future is an everyday [00:12:22] practice, but in places like this, where before there were candles and ancient [00:12:26] books, now there are servers and touch screens. [00:12:29] Through artificial intelligence, algorithms cross thousands of historical [00:12:33] and astrological data in a few seconds, offering immediate [00:12:37] answers about love, health or money to an increasingly [00:12:40] young public looking for certainties in an uncertain world. But this [00:12:44] phenomenon goes beyond Asia, all over the world, applications and automated [00:12:48] chats are multiplying, offering personalized astrological predictions in [00:12:51] seconds or tarot readings generated by code. [00:12:55] Digital platforms that use neural networks to respond to the [00:12:58] most spiritual concerns of society, a booming business [00:13:02] that also raises alarms among experts. [00:13:06] Classical tarot readers warn that artificial intelligence imitates mystic [00:13:10] language, but it lacks intuition and spiritual [00:13:12] connection. A new era where answers from beyond [00:13:16] are no longer sought in temples, but inside a microchip, thus opening a [00:13:20] profound debate about the ethical limits of algorithms that now also [00:13:24] want to control [00:13:25] destiny. [00:13:35] In the Lleida plain, some farms have already started harvesting peanuts, which has been [00:13:38] brought forward by about 15 days due to climate change and the [00:13:42] climate crisis. Farmers are not happy with this [00:13:45] campaign, a lot of corn hectares had been planted, but [00:13:49] the yield will not be good. High temperatures [00:13:52] have affected its flowering and many farms have been affected by [00:13:56] red spider mites, which makes the plants dry up and the [00:14:00] cobs smaller. Phytosanitary treatments [00:14:03] have not worked and farmers have been [00:14:07] denied the use of a cheaper treatment that they had applied exceptionally [00:14:10] in recent years. All this, added to [00:14:14] the rise in fuel and fertilizer prices, means that many [00:14:18] farmers are considering reducing crops to be able to cover [00:14:21] costs. [00:14:25] The heat and the red spider mite [00:14:28] that likes high temperatures has made the [00:14:32] corn crop yield of about [00:14:35] 15,000 kilos per hectare this year to be 9,000 or so. If [00:14:39] they don't give us an alternative, we will clearly [00:14:43] reduce the surface area of corn [00:14:46] because what we cannot do is work almost [00:14:49] at a loss. [00:14:52] I mean, it doesn't compensate, it doesn't compensate for the [00:14:56] work you do here, the expenses that exist today, which, as you mentioned before, [00:14:59] are increasing, this low production does not [00:15:03] compensate, I mean, we will surely change the crop here and in other farms where [00:15:07] there was perhaps an intention to grow corn, perhaps it will not be [00:20:10] Good morning, today we will talk with Núria Ballester, who is the director of the Pau [00:20:14] Casals Museum in El Vendrell, now that it is 150 years since the birth [00:20:18] of this great musician and composer, he defended values such as peace and [00:20:21] democracy that are threatened in today's world. The challenge is how [00:20:25] to make them known to new generations. [00:20:39] The Pau Casals Foundation, which this year has received the Cross of Sant Jordi from the [00:20:43] Generalitat de Catalunya, promotes the commemoration [00:20:45] of the Pau Casals Year, who was a cellist, composer, [00:20:50] orchestra conductor, humanist teacher. Núria [00:20:54] Ballesté is the director of the Paul [00:20:57] Casals Museum and we are here at Casa Vila [00:21:01] Pau Casals, which is the place where he also stayed until [00:21:04] 1939. Pau Casals was born in El Vendrell, tell us a little [00:21:08] about his emotional landscape that he experienced here in his land, [00:21:12] it goes very directly to these streets of the late 19th [00:21:16] century in El Vendrell, especially [00:21:19] the El Vendrell church, which is the instrument that his father played and with which Pau [00:21:22] Casals has a very strong emotional connection and the sea of Sant [00:21:26] Salvador, the neighborhood of Sant Salvador where Pau Casals in [00:21:30] 1909 decided to buy these lands to build his [00:21:33] summer residence. Here in the Corsal on the beach. Exactly, right [00:21:37] in front of the Museum. A fantastic landscape that is obviously very [00:21:41] connected to the feeling and the [00:21:45] memory of Pau Casals of El Vendrell. He always spoke of his father as his first [00:21:48] teacher, he was the one who made him love music, he was the one who [00:21:51] introduced him to the musical world through the [00:21:55] piano, the flute, the violin, also the organ, obviously, as [00:21:58] we have mentioned, and thanks to him [00:22:01] also because he was born, as he said, with a special [00:22:04] gift, Casals became the [00:22:08] great musician that awaited him and that the future brought [00:22:11] him. [00:22:24] His father taught him music, his mother [00:22:27] justice, this strong feeling of social and humanitarian [00:22:30] justice. His mother was a person who had a great sense of [00:22:34] justice and Casals always spoke of her with great [00:22:38] admiration because she always transmitted to him [00:22:42] this feeling of social justice of peace [00:22:45] that people had to understand through dialogue and he [00:22:49] assimilated this from a very young age and obviously [00:22:53] carried it forward with all the actions that Pau Casals took throughout [00:22:56] his life. Pau Casals lived here in this house until [00:22:59] 1939 and then with the outcome of the Spanish [00:23:02] Civil War he had to go into exile, first to Prades de Conflent [00:23:06] and then to Puerto Rico to his mother. The house was initially [00:23:09] smaller, a house with a ground floor and an upper floor and in the 20s he [00:23:13] expanded it with the living room in the garden, this [00:23:17] magnificent room that was the music room that he had. spent time not to enjoy with [00:23:21] friends and to play chamber music, this could not be, as you say, the civil [00:23:25] war broke out, he went into exile, an exile [00:23:28] that he spent in these two places, 16 [00:23:32] years in Prades de Conflent and then in Puerto Rico, very [00:23:36] linked to the figure of his [00:23:37] mother. [00:23:41] He was a musician committed to Peace, human rights, freedom, in fact he said [00:23:45] he would not play in Nazi Germany also not play in the allied [00:23:48] countries because... [00:23:50] it did not yet address Franco's dictatorship, how did he experience all this? Pau [00:23:54] Casals always said that his baton and his cello were his weapons, [00:23:58] he used them throughout his life, saying [00:24:02] that he would not go to play in Soviet Russia, he would not go to play in Nazi Germany, and he stood [00:24:06] up to the allied countries, after the attitude [00:24:09] they had with the permissiveness of the Franco regime, for him it was a [00:24:13] great sacrifice, but his musical silence was very [00:24:16] significant, obviously he was very aware that this would not change [00:24:20] the attitudes of governments, but Pau Casals always said that there are more important [00:24:23] things than music and for him his moral attitude was always more [00:24:27] important than his art his music. How did [00:24:30] he help the exiles? When Casals arrives in Prades de [00:24:34] Conflent he is very aware of the serious situation that thousands [00:24:37] of exiles, thousands of refugees are experiencing in the refugee [00:24:41] camps in southern France. And then he decides that [00:24:45] at that moment the most important thing is to help these people. So he [00:24:48] organized with. that there were in Prades de Conflent also a truck with [00:24:52] a driver, I always say that Casals was not like the first [00:24:55] NGO in the sense that he gave [00:24:59] thousands and thousands of euros, eh, he wrote thousands [00:25:03] of letters to people who were in the refugee camps of La [00:25:06] Maternidad de Elna and it was an action that throughout [00:25:10] his life he always said that it was one of the things he [00:25:14] was most proud of, he silenced his cello for a while [00:25:17] but in return he had done many concerts, 250 [00:25:21] a year, yes, exactly, in fact, Casals was able to do [00:25:25] what he did, we also have to be clear, because he was one of the best [00:25:30] to say, first the musician, then the activist, eh, [00:25:33] Casals triumphed as a great cellist at the beginning [00:25:37] of the century in Paris at the hands of the great conductor Francesc Charles LaMorer, from [00:25:41] that moment he became one of the best cellists in the world, [00:25:45] eh, more than 250 concerts a year, which is [00:25:48] incredible, he had a frantic schedule, eh, this [00:25:52] obviously allows him, at one point in his life, to be a very [00:25:55] recognized personality, to be able to position himself and be able to say [00:25:58] no, no, to be able to make his voice heard, Casals had this [00:26:02] very clear, and he always said, the more responsibility [00:26:06] a person has, the more responsible they are for their [00:26:10] actions, he complied with this all his life and with [00:26:13] what attitude do you think he would have, how would Pau [00:26:16] Casals react today if he saw this turbulent and upside-down world [00:26:20] we live in? I think he wouldn't believe it, he [00:26:24] who lived through a very turbulent century of wars and [00:26:27] in which he put all he could to achieve the ideal that for him [00:26:31] was most sacred, which was peace, I think he wouldn't believe what we are experiencing [00:26:35] today, I am sure that he would position himself strongly [00:26:39] against all the conflicts that we are experiencing, against [00:26:43] conflicts and also against these hate speeches [00:26:47] of one against the other, totally, [00:26:50] totally, that is, eh, Casals, eh, [00:26:54] was, was a person who defended dialogue, who defended [00:26:58] peace, he always said, music, this wonderful universal [00:27:03] politics and nations, should not be the [00:27:06] source of communication between all men and that's why he always [00:27:10] through his music wanted to give this [00:27:13] message of peace, no, and at the end of his life with the with the with the [00:27:17] the composition of the nativity scene that he directed was his [00:27:20] way, through his music, of transmitting [00:27:24] this message of fraternity among [00:27:28] the Medal of Freedom, right? In '61, President [00:27:31] Kennedy invited him to a concert at the White House. Two years later, [00:27:35] he recognized him by presenting him with the Presidential Medal. [00:27:39] President Kennedy defended the cause of Catalonia, so to speak. [00:27:43] In 1971, he received the [00:27:47] peace medal at the United Nations, not [00:27:50] AIM [00:27:55] Catalan provinces [00:27:58] of Spain. [00:28:15] This coherent attitude that Casals maintained throughout his life, his help to exiles, the issue of musical [00:28:18] silence, and above all his stance against the [00:28:22] Cold War and the arms race from a certain point [00:28:26] onwards led to Casals being [00:28:29] invited to the United Nations for the first time in [00:28:33] 1958. From then on, Casals became a symbol of a man of peace in the [00:28:36] world, of exiled music, and this led to U Thant entrusting him [00:28:39] with the anthem for the United Nations in [00:28:43] 1971. On the day of the premiere, which was October 24, [00:28:47] 1971, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, [00:28:50] U Thant, presented him with this peace medal in [00:28:54] recognition of this vital trajectory and the commitment that [00:28:57] Pau Casals had. [00:28:58] had. [00:29:09] You, Noria, were in Washington, with the widow [00:29:12] of Pau Casals, Marta Casals, and you made [00:29:15] an inventory of Pau Casals' documentary [00:29:18] collection, which is enormous, with more than 50,000 letters. What [00:29:22] don't we know about Pau Casals? Indeed, the Pau Casals [00:29:24] documentary collection that we have deposited in the National Archive of Catalonia is [00:29:28] an extraordinary collection. It is formed by all the [00:29:32] documents of his life, not only the part referring to [00:29:36] Puerto Rico, which is what I went to do in Washington, but also all the [00:29:39] documentation from the early century that is preserved in Sant Salvador and also in Prada, [00:29:42] and it is an incredible collection because [00:29:45] it is a testament to this contemporary society that Pau Casals [00:29:49] was able to live in. Pau Casals was a person who related to musicians, but also to [00:29:52] politicians, to artists.

[00:30:32] I believe that Casals was above all a very simple person, very [00:30:36] simple, he was a very spiritual person, he was a very [00:30:40] very kind person, but at the same time very [00:30:43] demanding. Many times people have the impression of Pau [00:30:47] Casals as being a very serious person, not because it's hard to find him in photos [00:30:50] laughing, or because he had a very high [00:30:54] degree of demand, but not only on other people but on himself. He was a [00:30:57] person, let's remember, that his beginnings were...
