00:00:15Pope Leo 14 revealed that he has a lung tumor and will undergo surgery in the
00:00:19coming days. The news that the
00:00:22Pope himself would make the announcement caused surprise
00:00:25and praise for
00:00:26transparency.
00:00:30Riyadh airport was again attacked after yesterday's
00:00:33offensive killed 13 people and injured another
00:00:36300. The Houthis have already claimed responsibility and Saudi
00:00:40Arabia announced a large-scale military operation against the
00:00:45Africa and Djibouti to rebels. Donald Trump announced a
00:00:49ceasefire in energy infrastructure. The 60-day
00:00:52truce between Ukraine and Russia
00:00:55surprised the Ukrainian
00:00:56president.
00:01:01Drug trafficking networks are heading to the
00:01:05artificial intelligence. The Algarve. They are even in houses to watch the police.
00:01:28begins a second term. He warns that the Very good evening. The Pope will undergo
00:01:32surgery to remove a lung nodule. The head of the
00:01:35Catholic Church himself announced the situation this morning in
00:01:39St. Peter's Square. The nodule was detected in routine
00:01:42exams and is circumscribed.
00:01:46It was from the window of the Apostolic Palace that Pope Leo
00:01:50XIV gave the
00:01:51news.
00:01:54Recently, during some check-ups, the
00:01:57doctors found a nodule. circumscribed
00:02:01to the lung. It was detected at a very
00:02:05early stage and is well localized. Leo
00:02:0814 is 71 years old and will undergo surgery in the coming days, and the
00:02:12expected post-operative hospital stay is about a
00:02:15week. The intervention will take place in the same hospital that received
00:02:19Popes John Paul II and Francis in the past during
00:02:23several hospitalizations. The doctors consider
00:02:26it appropriate to intervene
00:02:27from October 12th to 18th and so according to their
00:02:31advice, I decided to have surgery to
00:02:34remove it. I thank you for your
00:02:37spiritual closeness.
00:02:46Holy Father, let's say, it's
00:02:50new and all of us have been greatly worried, like a
00:02:54close family member. This worries us a lot.
00:02:57We hope that everything will go well. It's very sad
00:03:01and I hope it's going to be better pretty soon
00:03:04because it's only uh a
00:03:07little time that is there so
00:03:10uh I I hope better for him I think
00:03:13in we
00:03:16little bag, I want to see your outfit, deserve all to be happy and healthy so yeah that's what I'm that's what I'm
00:03:20hoping for yeah we hope the surgery is going to go well for
00:03:23him.
00:03:26It's news that has shaken everyone a bit because, let's say, one is unprepared.
00:03:30It's only been a year since he was elected as the new Pope.
00:03:33We wish him, let's say, our biggest
00:03:36wishes. Scheduled visit to South America at the
00:03:39beginning of November. During this Sunday's prayer, Leo 14
00:03:43greeted the Peruvians who were in
00:03:46XVI, and his St. Peter's Square and confirmed the visit to the
00:03:47country.
00:03:52Joining the news is RTP correspondent Rosário Salgueiro. Rosário, good
00:03:55evening. What could be the implications in the Vatican of this forced
00:03:58absence of the Pope? Leo 14, will it require some
00:04:02reorganization?
00:04:07The Holy See will not enter a special regime of
00:04:10government, eh, because of this hospitalization, at
00:04:14least from what we know so
00:04:17far. Eh, this hospitalization, this surgery of Pope Leo 14,
00:04:20is being viewed by the Vatican with
00:04:23great positivity and great hope.
00:04:27Being a hospitalization with uh... a surgery and a
00:04:31week of recovery, uh the Pope
00:04:35does not need to give up
00:04:37his place. Another cardinal will, uh, they tell us from the
00:04:41Vatican, uh after the recovery, after the
00:04:44post-recovery, he will be able, we all
00:04:48hope, uh they say from the Vatican, to continue reading documents,
00:04:52issuing indications and
00:04:55and we immediately recommendations, uh and the positivity is
00:04:58such, uh, that is...
00:05:00being viewed, this hospitalization
00:05:02to leave. There being no space for and this surgery
00:05:05that the Vatican insists, saying that the
00:05:09trip to South America at the beginning of
00:05:12November will remain, and as Ana Raquel said
00:05:16at the time of the Angelus, the Pope
00:05:19greeted an important group of Peruvians
00:05:23who were in St. Peter's Square, saying
00:05:26that and thanking them for their prayers because of this
00:05:30apostolic journey and saying that he
00:05:33will be there in November. Naturally,
00:05:37there will be adjustments to the agenda. A mass is
00:05:40scheduled for Wednesday. The Vatican has not yet
00:05:44canceled it. I asked if
00:05:47this mass would continue to exist, if it would be
00:05:50presided over by a cardinal or if it would be
00:05:53totally canceled, and so far the Vatican
00:05:57has not yet communicated what the next step is
00:06:01in this week's agenda. But Cristina,
00:06:04Pope Leo 14 has his house in order
00:06:07and this need for surgery was,
00:06:10they say, two
00:06:13different things. It was detected in diagnostic exams in a context
00:06:17of infection after the trip here to
00:06:20France. These diagnostic exams
00:06:23in that context of infection that the Pope
00:06:26presented, that was when that nodule was detected
00:06:29and immediate surgery was recommended.
00:06:33Pope Leo 14 put his house in order or on
00:06:36Friday he appointed the Filipino
00:06:40cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle
00:06:43as rector of the College of Cardinals. The rector
00:06:47of the College of Cardinals is the one who handles the ceremonial
00:06:50and all the organization in case of a conclave. He
00:06:54replaced Battista Re, dean of the
00:06:57cardinals who announced the election of Pope Leo
00:07:0114, who was 92 years old and was already
00:07:04ill. That is, the house is
00:07:08organized for the immediate worst-case scenario,
00:07:12but it is organized for the future. I naturally remind
00:07:15you that Luis Antonio Tagle is a
00:07:19Filipino cardinal and was one of the most talked about names to replace
00:07:22Pope Francis, more talked about even than
00:07:25Robert Prevost, who ended up being elected and
00:07:28who we know today as Leo 14. Everything is
00:07:32in order in the Vatican, as I said at the beginning, there is a great
00:07:36atmosphere of hope, of positivity and Catholics
00:07:39are already praying because in the masses this afternoon, prayer
00:07:43for the health of Pope Leo XIV was already being requested.
00:07:46Thank you, Rosário Salgueira, RDP correspondent,
00:07:49with some of the details regarding
00:07:52this illness of Pope Leo
00:07:56XIV, which we will learn more about. We have with us Paula Alves, coordinator of the
00:08:00oncological pulmonology unit of ULE Santa Maria. Doctor, very
00:08:03good evening, thank you for coming to the news. What kind of
00:08:06lung tumor is this to require immediate surgery?
00:08:09Eh, in principle it will be a
00:08:13tumor that will have the possibility
00:08:16that we, according to what we hear,
00:08:19a curative surgery with curative intent,
00:08:22why? Because being described as a nodule,
00:08:26it will probably be less than 3 cm and
00:08:30the fact that it is circumscribed or localized is probably a
00:08:33tumor that has not yet spread
00:08:37to regional lymph nodes or to the
00:08:40bloodstream, and therefore it will not have
00:08:43tumors in other organs, so it's not a mass, it's not a mass, it
00:08:46won't be a mass, because if it were a mass it would certainly be more than
00:08:503 cm. We don't know if it's malignant
00:08:53or not, exactly. And the
00:08:56tumor is only confirmed to be benign
00:09:00or malignant eh after a biopsy that is done
00:09:03before surgery or after the analysis of the tumor
00:09:07after surgery. Eh, however,
00:09:09there are certain characteristics that make us... think it is or
00:09:13is not a malignant or benign tumor. In this case, in this
00:09:17case, eh, what we think
00:09:21we don't know, maybe we'll only know after the surgery,
00:09:24but most of the tumors that exist in the lung are
00:09:27malignant, eh and also
00:09:31there are certain characteristics that we don't know
00:09:34about the morphology of the tumor that can make us think if it is or is not
00:09:38malignant, and on the other hand if the person is a smoker...
00:09:42"the probability of it being malignant is much higher because
00:09:45most lung tumors are associated with
00:09:49tobacco, although there are also
00:09:52lung tumors in non-smokers.
00:09:55The fact that there was no, at least that we know of,
00:09:58therapy preceding
00:10:01the operation, the surgery, could mean something, because he didn't have
00:10:05chemotherapy or anything, certainly, it could mean that the
00:10:09tumor is indeed localized only to the nodule."
00:10:13And therefore it did not have extension to the lymphatic
00:10:15system nor to the bloodstream, because, for example,
00:10:19when there are lymph nodes, we have to do a therapy
00:10:23that are positive, meaning that... in a tumor and we will
00:10:27have to do a therapy before to try
00:10:30to limit the dissemination of tumor cells, and
00:10:33therefore, according to the result after that therapy
00:10:37beforehand, it will or will not go for surgery, and going for
00:10:40surgery, according to the result of the pathological
00:10:44anatomy, it will probably have to receive therapy
00:10:48after surgery. In this case, we don't know exactly what will happen. In this case, we don't know what will
00:10:51happen, but the fact that he didn't receive therapy before... is a
00:10:55sign that it probably wasn't needed and therefore the
00:10:59tumor is localized. Exactly. And even if it is malignant, a priori it will not
00:11:02have chemotherapy, at least it is not known for now. This
00:11:06nodule, eh, we can say it was a stroke of luck because it was
00:11:10detected in routine exams, isn't it?
00:11:12It's not common for a Pope to also reveal his state of
00:11:16health in full prayer to
00:11:18the faithful. Eh, it ends up being an alert also, eh
00:11:22this transparency is an alert for... other people
00:11:26to draw attention to the importance of the relevance
00:11:29of screenings. Of course, yes. Eh, we, eh, have
00:11:33to think seriously about lung cancer
00:11:36screening, because eh, lung tumors generally don't
00:11:40cause symptoms until they are in an advanced state, eh,
00:11:44and therefore, lung cancer screening allows for early
00:11:47tumor detection, ah, without metastasis
00:11:51and dissemination, and therefore, it can be treated... with
00:11:55curative intention, which is the case, which is the case, and
00:11:58therefore with less invasive therapies, easier
00:12:02recovery, and therefore, with a much better prognosis. And is
00:12:05it easy to do screenings in Portugal, for example? No, it's difficult. We
00:12:08currently have, eh, a
00:12:12pilot project for lung cancer screening in the oncological pulmonology
00:12:16unit of ULS Santa Maria,
00:12:20eh, for risk groups, but, eh, even in the
00:12:23rest of Europe, there was much discussion
00:12:27about the risk-benefit ratio because screenings
00:12:30are not something that comes
00:12:33cheap, right? But then we also have the
00:12:37price of the disease, so it's very important here and
00:12:41we are coming to the conclusion that, indeed, especially in risk groups,
00:12:44eh, lung screening is paramount,
00:12:47it reduces the risk of death by about 20%. Just to
00:12:51finish very quickly, the recovery.
00:12:55Eh, in the Pope's case, it will be fast, will it? If it's
00:12:58a surgery for tumors eh in an early
00:13:02stage it is usually done by video thoracoscopy
00:13:05or by robotic surgery which takes 2 to 6 hours more or less
00:13:09and then recovery if the surgery is not
00:13:12complicated is uh three to seven to seven
00:13:16days uh then the rest of the recovery will be
00:13:19done at home and in a few weeks,
00:13:23therefore, and
00:13:33the announcement of Pope Leo 14 that he has a fear
00:13:36is causing reactions. Américo Aguiar
00:13:39praises the simplicity of the head of the Catholic Church and
00:13:43dozens of faithful wish a speedy recovery to the Holy
00:13:47Father.
00:13:49A few hours after the announcement of Pope Leo 14,
00:13:53wishes for a speedy recovery are accumulating, but above all,
00:13:56praise for the attitude of the leader of the Catholic Church. It
00:14:00was a simplicity of his that I
00:14:03admire in him, that for me, I think
00:14:07he has a lot of John Paul II, Benedict
00:14:11simplicity made him tell all Christian
00:14:15people to pray for him. Such sad
00:14:18news for anyone, isn't it? Whoever it is,
00:14:21especially a man we really need. Very,
00:14:25very, very sad news. I ask
00:14:28very much, I will ask everyone, I already ask every day, I will continue to ask very much
00:14:31for him, because everyone has their place, but without a doubt, this one captivates many
00:14:35people too. I think he will achieve many
00:14:38things for the world and for peace. At the inauguration of the new Eucharistic
00:14:42Sanctuary of Balazar in Póvoa de Varzim, the
00:14:46Vatican representative in Portugal and the Archbishop of Braga were present, who also
00:14:50did not forget Leo 14, that
00:14:53he told me... that he plans to come
00:14:56to Portugal because for him, he spoke in
00:15:00Fátima that he will come, he will come
00:15:04when it is
00:15:07very complex, happy surprise that it was the Pope himself who
00:15:11announced this at the end of the Angelus prayer from the
00:15:14window. I admired his
00:15:17gesture very much
00:15:20committed to praying for him. On social media, Cardinal
00:15:24Américo Aguiar took the opportunity to
00:15:27praise the Holy Father's simplicity and add
00:15:30a word of solidarity. It is very important for the days
00:15:34we live in that the news was given directly by
00:15:37the Pope and with all this transparency, simplicity
00:15:41and humanity. We are with the Pope in these days that are certainly
00:15:45of some sensitivity, but I am
00:15:48convinced that it will be something almost routine. In a statement,
00:15:51the Portuguese Episcopal Conference also expressed spiritual
00:15:55closeness to the Pope and wished a rapid and
00:15:58full recovery to Leo
00:16:0014.
00:16:03Riyadh International Airport was once again
00:16:06attacked by Houthi rebels from
00:16:09Yemen, after another attack yesterday killed
00:16:1313 people and injured 300 others. Moments
00:16:16ago, Dammam Airport, in the east of the country, was also
00:16:20attacked. Saudi Arabia considers the attacks a war
00:16:24crime, and promises to respond. The Iranian-backed Houthis
00:16:27warn that Saudi airspace is not
00:16:30safe.
00:16:33For the second consecutive day, the main airport in Saudi
00:16:36Arabia was under attack, but nothing compared
00:16:40to what happened Saturday. The airport was
00:16:43like this. It was the worst attack in the country in over a decade.
00:16:4713 people died, more than 300 were injured. They are
00:16:50of various nationalities. The Saudi Health Minister
00:16:54went to
00:16:54visit.
00:17:04Her father, greetings, greetings, may God grant her good health.
00:17:18And all experts, employees, workers
00:17:21and travelers from all countries of the world, from
00:17:25the trouble of operating flights towards Saudi
00:17:28airports, as they are unsafe. What is certain
00:17:31is that Saudi authorities classified the incidents at the airport as war
00:17:35crimes and that they represent... a new escalation in the conflict that
00:17:39has pitted Saudis, supporters of the Yemeni
00:17:42government, Houthis, rebel forces from that
00:17:45country, supported by
00:17:47Iran.
00:17:54From the UN Secretary-General to the Arab League, the tone is one of condemnation
00:17:58of the attacks. Several European governments are advising their respective
00:18:02citizens not to approach Riyadh
00:18:05airport. The airport, in any
00:18:07case, was closed
00:18:09this weekend.
00:18:14Drug trafficking networks are settling in the south of
00:18:17Portugal, a situation that is causing fear among the population.
00:18:21The report on these criminal organizations will be seen soon.
00:18:25pouco.
00:18:31The Prime Minister calls for an end to the situation that has led to the senseless
00:18:35rise in oil prices.
00:18:38In São João da Madeira, Luís Montenegro criticized those who want
00:18:41to import instability into
00:18:43the country.
00:18:46It's the end of a particularly intense week. The government submitted the
00:18:49budget. The Prime Minister received the US Secretary of State, Marco
00:18:53Rubio, in São João da Madeira. He wanted to share that
00:18:57among the topics of conversation was the escalation of fuel
00:19:00prices. We have to resolve in the coming
00:19:03weeks, in the coming times,
00:19:06this eh... senselessness of penalizing
00:19:09economies and people in general in a way where no one is benefiting
00:19:13and to
00:19:16resolve this impasse. He took the opportunity to be
00:19:19in one of the municipalities that exports the most to return to
00:19:22the budget and the defense of the decision to lower corporate tax to
00:19:2618%. There's no point in indulging in demagoguery about
00:19:29that, and some say
00:19:31that when we lower corporate
00:19:35tax, when we lower taxes on businesses, we want
00:19:39to give more money to business owners, to
00:19:43entrepreneurs, eh, those who are the most
00:19:46advantaged in society. That's a very,
00:19:49very limited view of
00:19:53public policies. He acknowledges that the political moment is difficult
00:19:57and blames the international context, but says the country has guaranteed
00:20:01economic and financial stability. Some want
00:20:04to bring instability, even from a social point of view, into the country. They will not
00:20:08achieve that objective either, which is a negative
00:20:12objective. It's one thing to talk about problems, it's another to want
00:20:16to import instabilities that have no place here. The
00:20:19Prime Minister doesn't let go of the image of a growing economy.
00:20:23He says he knows that daily life is more difficult for Portuguese people,
00:20:27but asks them not to
00:20:28weaken.
00:20:32The PS is calling for an urgent parliamentary hearing with 16
00:20:36entities from the economic and social sectors that are being affected by the
00:20:40rise in energy prices. The party wants a diagnosis of the
00:20:43different realities and impacts to seek
00:20:46possible measures. In the request sent to the parliamentary committee for
00:20:50environment and energy, the PS explains that these impacts are not evenly
00:20:54distributed among the different sectors of the economy and
00:20:58society. The business confederation and the
00:21:01farmers are some of the entities to
00:21:03be heard.
00:21:07UGT wants dignified wages and pensions. The
00:21:11criticisms of the State budget proposal were heard this weekend at the
00:21:15congress where the social bodies
00:21:17took office. Thank you. This is the last time Lucinda
00:21:21Damas presides over the UGT Congress. And it was this
00:21:24relationship of trust, of companionship and, above all,
00:21:28loyalty that made these 13 years for
00:21:31me, perhaps the best 13 years of my life, and I'm not lying. The
00:21:35succession was not consensual at first. After Francisco
00:21:38Pimentel's name did not gather enough support, Rosa Sousa,
00:21:42a union leader and former mayor, was chosen for the
00:21:44presidency. She arrives with criticisms of the government and promises to maintain
00:21:48the valorization of wages among the priorities. Coming from the
00:21:51public administration, I understand that
00:21:54having 40 cents per kilometer
00:21:57at the price of gasoline is paying to work. We have
00:22:01had many difficult negotiations
00:22:05in public administration, but we have always found
00:22:09a common ground, and that will be our logic. In executive
00:22:12leadership, there is no change. Mário Mourão was re-elected secretary-general and
00:22:18dignity of wages,
00:22:50minimum wage was this, and the government remains
00:22:53insensitive to this challenge and this demand. The
00:22:56demands that marked the congress also echoed outside the venue. Bank
00:23:00workers demonstrated against the proposed salary increase of
00:23:032%. They held 5 minutes of silence to mark the
00:23:06lost purchasing power. The increases in the food basket or
00:23:10what are fuel prices, the value of
00:23:13rents, it's not with a 2% increase. We consider a
00:23:16fair value to restore that purchasing power. We feel that we are falling
00:23:20behind because it is a sector that cannot complain about productivity, naturally.
00:23:24The unions promise to continue pressuring the banks in the coming
00:23:27weeks. The protest culminates on November 30th with a
00:23:30national
00:23:32strike.
00:23:36The Finance Minister says it would be inexplicable to return to a budget
00:23:40deficit if Chega and the Socialist Party
00:23:44approve measures in the budget. He responds to Mário
00:23:47Centeno's calculations, who speaks of competing.
00:23:52In the management of public accounts, the former minister does not reject a return to
00:23:55politics. It is not unprecedented.
00:23:58Minister and former minister disagree on the accounts. One
00:24:02took the country out of chronic deficits and accuses the current one of leading
00:24:05it back into negative territory. Of the budget
00:24:09presented and initially viable,
00:24:12Miranda Sarmento downplays Centeno's calculations, who
00:24:15says, he rushed.
00:24:18It would be inexplicable and again. It would be irresponsible that after a very
00:24:22difficult year 26, it was possible
00:24:25to maintain the balance of public accounts, even against many
00:24:29predictions and forecasts, that now in 2027, due to negative
00:24:33coalitions of the PS and Chega, the country would be thrown into a budget
00:24:36deficit. This is not about the devil, these are pure and
00:24:39simple errors, these are errors in the conduct of policy, there is no devil
00:24:43here, it is just incompetence in a way
00:24:46in the way budgets are then put into
00:24:50execution. Can we after such a deviation,
00:24:53have some credibility regarding what was
00:24:56presented to us for the 2027 account? I have
00:24:59doubts because I don't know exactly where
00:25:03public spending will actually end up. I believe it was a bit of a
00:25:06rush, there is no problem in the net
00:25:10expenditure, nor any problem in the control account
00:25:13and whoever presents other values has to explain where
00:25:17those values come from. The current Finance Minister does not
00:25:20directly refer to the former Governor of the Bank of Portugal, whose predictions,
00:25:24when he still held the position, never sat well with the current
00:25:27government. Now, without institutional ties,
00:25:31Centeno does not spare criticism and questioned, once again, about a
00:25:35possible return to politics, he sees no
00:25:38point in saying never. Never
00:25:41is zero. Zero is the absorbing
00:25:44element of multiplication. Zero ends everything
00:25:48that is our learning. If we set a zero
00:25:51in our lives, we don't get out of
00:25:54there, and that's why "never" makes no
00:25:58sense to me, which doesn't mean it's probable,
00:26:02nor that it's easy, which also doesn't mean that
00:26:06it's completely out of
00:26:08the question.
00:26:11The Algarve is on the route of drug
00:26:14traffickers. It is a supply point for speedboats,
00:26:18but also a gateway for drugs into Europe. There are networks
00:26:21that rent houses on the Algarve coast to
00:26:25monitor the movements of the
00:26:27police.
00:26:29It's not new, but it's gaining more and more strength
00:26:32in Portugal. The Algarve coast is part of the transit route.
00:26:36of logistical support to drug trafficking networks, the
00:26:40networks are passing, let's say, along the Algarve coast, the maritime
00:26:43routes, and this also implies that there must be logistical support
00:26:47on land, namely fuel to supply the boats. In addition to this logistical
00:26:51support for fuel, there are other supports that are also established on land. There are
00:26:55large trafficking networks, namely with origin in
00:26:58Spain. The positioning of the Algarve in Europe is a factor that
00:27:01further... the drug traffickers, the Algarve and Portugal have a
00:27:04strategic position in Europe. Therefore, it is here, if we look at
00:27:08Portugal, it is a tip of Europe, an entrance gate to
00:27:12Europe. Therefore, we have a privileged
00:27:15situation, a privileged location in relation to
00:27:18Europe, with the correlation with the Atlantic, along
00:27:21the Vicentina coast, where the maritime police, and the GNR,
00:27:25have detected some networks that
00:27:29rent or lease local accommodation for this type of activity.
00:27:32These cases extend throughout the Algarve. The populations are
00:27:36increasingly attentive and concerned. This is the case
00:27:39of residents on Farol Island in Faro, who suspect
00:27:43illicit use of this old building. The
00:27:46authorities recognize the potential interest of the property, but
00:27:50for now, they rule out that recent, clandestine
00:27:53occupations are linked to drug trafficking.
00:27:56Even so, it is recognized that the identified networks are
00:28:00becoming increasingly dangerous. There was a very important
00:28:04transformation here, which was the change from hashish trafficking to
00:28:07cocaine trafficking. The amounts are substantially higher, here
00:28:11we are talking about 20 or 25 times higher than
00:28:15they were a few years ago, and the frequency of many Spanish vehicles has already been
00:28:18caught. Weapons of war were also seized. Weapons of
00:28:21war were found near
00:28:24situations that indicated illegal unloading.
00:28:28In recent times, the pace of seizures has increased to
00:28:31almost every
00:28:33week.
00:28:37Epilepsy can be detected by a
00:28:40lamppost, a project by a Portuguese company to know about soon.
00:28:43pouco.
00:28:50Donald Trump announced a ceasefire in the war between Ukraine and
00:28:55Russia over energy infrastructure, but the Ukrainian
00:28:59president guarantees that he knows nothing about it. The announcement
00:29:02by the American president was made hours after Zelensky had said
00:29:06that there would be presidential elections if there was a 60-day
00:29:09military truce.
00:29:13A few hours after Trump said that it was already time for elections in
00:29:16Ukraine, the President of the United States announced an
00:29:20energy ceasefire with immediate effect, to stop
00:29:23attacks like this in the Samara region in Russia, on a
00:29:27crucial system for crude oil exports. Trump writes
00:29:31that both countries agreed.
00:30:38Despite the tension, the American president spoke with Domirski and
00:30:42guarantees that he continues to count on the support of the United
00:30:45States.
00:30:47At least 139 people died, including 15
00:30:51children, in the shipwreck of a vessel that was heading to
00:30:54Yemen. There are 84 missing. The African Union
00:30:58calls for an effective fight against migrant trafficking.
00:31:04This is what remains of yet another tragedy at sea. They fled
00:31:08insecurity and poverty on a boat trip that did not reach the
00:31:11end. In the early hours of Friday,
00:31:45loved ones remain without news of their
00:31:48family members. According to the United Nations, in
00:31:512025, there were more than 900 migrants reported
00:31:55dead or missing on the eastern route, which connects the Horn of
00:32:00Yemen.
00:32:04The British Parliament will debate a popular petition for an eventual
00:32:07return to the European Union. More than 112 thousand
00:32:11signatories argue that Brexit is not working.
00:32:15The parliamentary debate is scheduled for tomorrow in the historic hall of parliament. The
00:32:19Prime Minister recently stated that the British government will
00:32:22analyze all options. The Office
00:32:25for Budget Responsibility emphasizes that, due to Brexit,
00:32:29the UK's economy and trade have weakened, a situation that
00:32:32it says will continue to
00:32:35worsen.
00:32:38In the United States, the passage of Hurricane Isaias caused
00:32:42four deaths, and roads and buildings were affected.
00:33:19The situation is now calmer, time to
00:33:23assess the damage.
00:33:39This gas station and this restaurant, for example,
00:33:42were partially destroyed.
00:34:45and
00:34:45floods.
00:34:49A walker that detects epilepsy seizures with the help
00:34:53of artificial intelligence. This is the project
00:34:56that gave victory to a Portuguese startup in San
00:34:59Francisco. The report is by Cândida Pinto and Ricardo
00:35:02Guerreiro, RTP, in San Francisco,
00:35:05California.
00:35:09It is a trademark of San Francisco's electric cars that have been circulating here since the
00:35:1219th century. In the 21st century, they coexist with the top of
00:35:16technology that is advancing in the region, the iron structure of
00:35:19the city's port. This week is the most important for
00:35:23startups, young companies that want to enter the market. We
00:35:27brought 10 startups from Portugal that were handpicked
00:35:30to have very close contact with several
00:35:33investors in seven different events. This market is
00:35:37demanding, but above all it knows how to distinguish what are
00:35:40growth projects. There are 10 young Portuguese who will
00:35:44have minutes each to defend their project in the areas of health,
00:35:48tourism, insurance, artificial intelligence. Redbridge is a
00:35:52community that seeks to bring together the ecosystems of Lisbon and Silicon
00:35:55Valley. It started by welcoming Californians who arrived in Lisbon,
00:35:59available to invest, and now wants to do the reverse circuit,
00:36:03connecting the cities of the two red bridges. For us, the
00:36:06most tangible results would be very much associated with the ability of these
00:36:10startups to obtain either funding or really
00:36:13close with clients and commercial partners. This is the territory of the big
00:36:16tech companies from which the recent controversy about the
00:36:20control of artificial intelligence in the highly competitive market
00:36:24really is advancing very quickly. I think it's good
00:36:28sometimes to stop and think what we want this
00:36:31technology to do for us. Artificial intelligence is digital, so any
00:36:35region in any country can continue to develop it, and the risks are still
00:36:39there. At Stanford University, Ana Filipa Geraldo
00:36:42works daily with projects that include artificial
00:36:46intelligence. She arrived from Porto, lives in an academic
00:36:49environment of multiple awards. The most recent
00:36:52happened a few
00:36:54days ago.
00:37:06In medicine, it will support doctors to have more free
00:37:09time to dedicate to research, to provide better care, and ultimately
00:37:13exams, reduce waiting lists,
00:37:16and perform exams with better quality.
00:37:20In the competition room of the Portuguese startups, the
00:37:24winner is already known.
00:37:28A project in the area of epilepsy using
00:37:33LEM device has a video camera and can detect
00:37:37movements that may be indicative of seizures, epileptic crises,
00:37:40send an automatic call to a parent or caregiver. This can really
00:37:44help bring back safety and peace of mind that many families do not have
00:37:48at the moment. Creating connections between Lisbon and Silicon Valley
00:37:51to give opportunities to Portuguese companies in the Mecca of
00:37:55technology. This at a time when... the controversy with artificial
00:37:59intelligence has gone beyond technological circles.

00:38:08The Paralympic Games are closed to those with
00:38:12Down syndrome. Vicente Pereira dreams of participating in that
00:38:15competition. In today's special report, we look at the
00:38:19case of this Portuguese swimmer who, at 23 years old, has
00:38:2317 world champion titles and 27 European
00:38:26titles. 3 2
00:38:291 go to be
00:38:3217 times world champion is
00:38:35incredible, I really like
00:38:39being a great swimmer,
00:38:42Vicente's biggest dream is the Paralympics. I have
00:38:46many doubts that he will be able to go it's not because of his
00:38:49effort,
00:38:51are you well, so go
00:38:55in the opening ceremonies, in the ceremonies of
00:39:04The largest international organization that promotes inclusion is
00:39:08the first to exclude, if they have the abilities to
00:39:12entertain, they also have the abilities to compete.
00:39:25Volcanic, Atlantic. From
00:39:27home, it is on the island of Tenerife that Vicente Pereira challenges
00:39:31human potential. This Spanish island is home
00:39:35to a sanctuary for elite
00:39:37athletes.
00:39:39What have you been doing in the pool? Pool,
00:39:42gym.
00:39:45The tank, okay? Let's work? Let's
00:39:49go, jump in.
00:39:50dentro.
00:39:53Okay, undulate. Legs, ready.
00:40:00And when Vicente was born, both my wife
00:40:03and I were scared. I think it's
00:40:07perfectly normal because we didn't know
00:40:11anything about Down syndrome and we were a little
00:40:14scared and now what will become of our
00:40:17son?
00:40:20We still have 10 minutes. The best advice I
00:40:22received from the doctor who
00:40:25attended us was for him to
00:40:29tell us, it wasn't even really telling, it was forcing us, like,
00:40:33"This kid is not going to special education, he has to go to regular
00:40:36education." You're going to jump in, hold onto the
00:40:39bar, you start with my signal, you finish
00:40:43with my signal, okay, up, come on,
00:40:45good job, he was the first in preschool to eat
00:40:49with cutlery. When we were in the car taking him to
00:40:53school, he would always try to tie his...
00:40:57sneakers, he couldn't until the day he managed
00:41:00to. A colleague from the
00:41:04pool told me that there was a kid there with Down
00:41:08syndrome who learned
00:41:11a lot from watching others, from the so-called normal
00:41:14ones, from his colleagues, but that
00:41:16he had something there. Come on,
00:41:20come on,
00:41:22come on.
00:41:25In a year and a half, Vicente was walking
00:41:27reasonably well. How did you feel?
00:41:31I felt strong
00:41:33with my breathing, I breathed
00:41:37well.
00:41:39And you? Now, strokes without breathing at the
00:41:41beginning,
00:41:44I let him start this right away with good breathing. It was
00:41:47surprising to see the eagerness he had right from the
00:41:50beginning to compete, to want to win, to want to get ahead. How many seconds
00:41:53were left?
00:41:5613, only 13 seconds
00:41:59were left for our goal, and that gave
00:42:02us good indicators that Vicente
00:42:06could become...
00:42:10Fear with some success, we never thought, we never thought
00:42:13that with development he could reach levels and plateaus.
00:42:40finish the race, okay? I'm tired, I'm
00:42:43exhausted, I can't take it anymore, you can last a little longer,
00:42:47think that you're finishing race 15, 15 I work with a
00:42:51constant feedback method
00:42:53and I've always done it. If he demands a lot from me,
00:42:56he probably demands that I do almost the same amount of swimming as
00:43:00Vicente in the pool, back and forth, to be on
00:43:04top of the mistake, legs, in training he is very
00:43:07existent, huh? He shouts very loudly.
00:43:11When we
00:43:14have goals or to
00:43:17swim techniques, when
00:43:20we feel that is not right, we continue to
00:43:23work, not give up, always
00:43:26forward. You're going to do four of these,
00:43:28prepare in six days he broke 11
00:43:32world records, for me and my wife, it's a huge
00:43:36source of pride because we always think about what he was back then.
00:43:40Unlike hundreds of high-performance athletes, Vicente does
00:43:44not receive state
00:43:46support.
00:43:49From the internship in Tenerife, to equipment, travel,
00:43:52he depends almost exclusively on private
00:43:55initiative and the effort of his family. It's
00:43:59incredible the number of athletes that they
00:44:01have, they have the support of the Betano heroes who are the only
00:44:05ones who, being a private company, do
00:44:08the... public service of sport, it is
00:44:11unbelievable in Portugal that these children do not have the possibility
00:44:15to be supported by the state, to have
00:44:18the possibility of having a scholarship so that they
00:44:22can apply the money in their lives
00:44:25or in the sport they do,
00:44:28huh, this is not just swimming, it
00:44:32costs a lot,
00:44:35but this is not the only barrier that athletes
00:44:39with Down syndrome face.
00:44:55The most painful thing is when you
00:44:59hear your child say they have a dream and you know that
00:45:03dream will be very difficult to achieve. In the Paralympic
00:45:06Games, the rule says that athletes with Down syndrome
00:45:10are in the intellectual disability category, the same as for
00:45:14autistic people, for example. Here lies the
00:45:17problem, they start with a disadvantage, they face
00:45:20athletes who are perfectly physically fit, but a person
00:45:24with Down syndrome has less muscle rigidity,
00:45:27flexibility, and cardiovascular capacity, which
00:45:31makes it impossible for athletes with Down syndrome to achieve the
00:45:35minimum standards of their own category to enter the
00:45:38competition. Let's go! Just one more
00:45:42slow, slow, slow.
00:45:45You
00:45:49have the case of the Special Olympics who don't go to the
00:45:52Paralympics but have their own Olympics, okay? Why isn't
00:45:56there one for people with Down syndrome?
00:45:59I think
00:46:03no one has ever been able to give me an explanation that I thought
00:46:07was, well, maybe they're right.
00:46:10They tell us that the Paralympic Games
00:46:13have an Olympic Village. In that Olympic
00:46:17Village, all the teams, athletes
00:46:21and staff are housed. And
00:46:23in those Olympic, Paralympic villages there are
00:46:264,800 beds that have to be distributed among all the
00:46:29modalities, all the athletes and staff. At this moment,
00:46:33the inclusion of an athlete in the Paralympic
00:46:37Games of a new modality means that someone has
00:46:42more, there cannot be inclusion of more, so
00:46:46it's a matter of logistics, it's not a
00:46:48matter of logistics, it's a matter of a protocol that...
00:46:52exists between the International Olympic Committee and the International Paralympic
00:46:56Committee, which I believe has nothing to do with logistics. Wait,
00:46:59wait, let me spin here when
00:47:02you want, but giving up is not part of his
00:47:05vocabulary. You managed with
00:47:08your condition to be the best in the world, exactly,
00:47:12that proves it's not a problem at all, no, it's not a problem
00:47:15at all, as category 21,
00:47:19coming out of town, you are among the best.
00:47:24Sport gives
00:47:26me a unique
00:47:28opportunity,
00:47:32yeah, that people say that I'm not
00:47:35the best, that's all, it's all good, I
00:47:39say to my life, and I continue to be the
00:47:42best.
00:48:16We have talent,
00:48:19new judges. Almost 10 years ago, I was in a
00:48:23boy band. I'm very happy here next to my brother, I just need to
00:48:26start turning chairs. The truth is that this
00:48:30edition holds a huge
00:48:32secret. The Voice, new season
00:48:36premieres this Sunday on
