00:34disease.
00:41Russian President Vladimir Putin paid an official visit to Mongolia to attend the celebration
00:47of the 85th anniversary of the joint victory of the Soviet and Mongolian Armed Forces.
00:54Hello, welcome to From the South, I'm Ana Marrero from the Telesur headquarters in Caracas,
01:11Venezuela.
01:12The
01:28Venezuelan government denounced Jaiaquin by the United States of an aircraft used by President
01:33Nicolás Maduro.
01:34Caracas denounced before the international community that once again the authorities
01:39of the United States illegally confiscate Venezuelan aircraft, justifying themselves
01:44with coercive measures that they unilaterally and illegally impose around the world.
01:49In turn, the Bolivarian Republic state that this new order of disposition has demonstrated
01:54Washington uses economic and military power to intimidate and pressure states such as
01:59the Dominican Republic so that they serve as accomplices in these delinquent acts.
02:13In official community issue on Monday, Venezuela accused the government of the United States
02:17of illegally confiscating an aircraft used by President Nicolás Maduro.
02:22In the document, the South American nation said that the action was a repeated criminal
02:27practice that cannot be qualified as anything other than a piracy of illegally confiscated
02:33aircraft that has been used by the President of the Republic.
02:37The text also signaled that this action reveals that no state and no constitutional government
02:42is safe from illegal actions that disregard international law.
02:46It also adds that the United States has already demonstrated that it uses its economic and
02:50military might to intimidate and put pressure on states such as the Dominican Republic to
02:56serve as accomplices in these criminal acts.
02:58It continues by saying that this is an example of the so-called rules-based order which disregarding
03:05international law seeks to establish the law of the strongest, create rules that suit its
03:11interests and enforce them with total impunity.
03:15Finally, the document affirmed that the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela reserves the right to
03:20take any legal actions to repair this damage to the nation as well as other damage caused
03:25by the criminal policy of unilateral courtesy measures and finished by saying that it seems
03:30that Venezuela respects itself and continues to firmly defend its dignity and sovereignty.
03:38On Monday, the Public Ministry of Venezuela issued an alert warning for former presidential
03:55candidate Mundo González Urrutia.
03:57The arrest warrant specifies the alleged commission of the crimes of usurpation of functions punishable
04:04under Article 213, forgiveness of public documents provided and punishable under Article 319,
04:14instigation to disobey the law punishable under the Article 283, conspiracy provided
04:20for and punished by Article 132 of the Penal Code, sabotage of systems damage punished
04:27by Article 7 of the Computer Crimes Association, provided for and punishable by the Article
04:3437 of the Organic Law against Organized Crimes and Financial Terrorism.
04:51Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro met on Monday with the five generations of the Bolivarian
04:56Revolution at the Miraflores Palace.
04:58The meeting was held in the context of what was called the Generations Data Space to debate
05:03ideas focused on the task of the Bolivarian Revolution for the future and to discuss the
05:07challenges for the immaterialization of the plans of the Hamlet for the so-called seven
05:11transformations.
05:12During the meeting, Maduro highlighted potential of Chávez' ideas for social unity both within
05:17the revolutionary forces and the South American country and proudly declared that he is the
05:22first Chavista president and that he expects to hand over power to a Chavista and a Bolivarian
05:27president.
05:37Chávez vaccinated us with the best vaccine against betrayal, with the best vaccine of
05:42loyalty, the Bolivarianism of the 21st century, and we have always been asked, what is Chavismo?
05:49And I was saying it now in the pilgrimage, Chavismo is the original Bolivarianism with
05:53a project of the 21st century or for the 21st century.
06:07And I used to tell people that if that interpretation was very intellectual, Chavismo is the greatest
06:12love that a people can feel for its history and for its right to the future, that is Chavismo.
06:22The Venezuelan president emphasized that Chavismo is at its best with conscientious people immune
06:27to betrayal.
06:32We are already vaccinated with pure Bolivarianism and we have several booster vaccines against
06:37destructive and divisive viruses that has made Chavismo an unassailable and indestructible
06:46force, because Chavismo at this moment in history can say it is vaccinated against treason,
07:00against divisionism and is an unassailable fortress of a conscious people.
07:07In Colombia, at least seven people died and more than 30 were injured after a bus accident
07:12in the department of Julia in the south of the country.
07:15According to the local media, a vehicle collided and overturned while traveling between the
07:20highways of San Agustin and Pitalito.

07:30after the accident and stated that the road that was closed due to the incident had already
07:35been partially opened.
07:36It was also detailed that the injured are receiving medical attention in nearby care
07:41centers, while the authorities are carrying out investigations to clarify the facts.
07:55The Brazilian Supreme Court confirms its decision to block the social network X due to what
08:00is called repeated judicial breaches made by the platform.
08:04Voting was carried out virtually and the ruling was adopted by a positive vote of three judges
08:10out of a total of five.
08:11The nation's top court decision includes fines of almost $1,000 to people and companies that
08:17violate the ban and get connected to X.

13:33Russian President Vladimir Putin paid an official visit to Mongolia to attend the celebration
13:38of the 85th anniversary of the Soviet and Mongolian Armed Forces' victory over the Japanese
13:43militarists on the Khalkhin Gold River.
13:46According to the Russian government, Spokman, the head of state of both countries, will
13:51meet to discuss views of current international and regional problems, as well as the development
13:57of the Russian-Mongolian Union and comprehensive strategic relationship relations.
14:01The Russian official also informed that President Putin will be in the Ulaanbaatar to participate
14:07in the plenary session of the Eastern Economic Forum.
14:13Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that incursion of Ukrainian forces into the core
14:23region could not stop the Russian advance on the Donbas.
14:27The Russian leader declared the country to stop the enemy's want to put in the Russian
14:32offensive.
14:33Their troops have advanced at a very good pace in the Donbas.
14:38Putin also added that there are no countries with hostile attitudes towards Russia, but
14:43the violent elites want to awaken and evade it.
14:47The President reiterated that Moscow cannot tolerate the appearance of aggressive structures
14:53near the Russian borders and that they are defending the people living in the Donbas
14:58and their common future.
15:00After lifting martial law, the presidential elections must be held immediately, and the
15:06current authorities in Ukraine are clearly not ready for this.
15:10They have little chance of being re-elected, and therefore they are not interested in ending
15:15the fighting.
15:16That is why they carried out this provocation in the Kursk region, and before that, they
15:21tried to carry out the same provocation in the Belgrade region, where your friend lives.
15:26I think it is connected, first of all, with this.
15:35Of course, first of all, it concerns our people.
15:39People, especially in the Kursk region, are going through difficult times, but the main
15:44task that the enemy set for themselves, to stop our offensive in Donbas, they didn't
15:49achieve it.
15:50Moreover, now it is not about moving forward 200 or 300 meters.
15:54We have not had such a pace of advance in Donbas for a long time.
15:58The Russian armed forces are already taking control of territories not by 200-300 meters,
16:03but by square kilometers.
16:10Russian authorities announced on Monday a Ukrainian shelling on civilian targets in
16:15the province of Belgrade, killing five civilians and wounding 46, including seven minors.
16:22According to the governor of the province, Vyacheslav Gladkov, the Sheolahit nursery
16:27school being the third incident when Ukrainian shelling affects directly educational centers
16:33in the province.
16:34As a precautionary measure, Gladkov announced the temporary closure of schools and nursery
16:40schools in the area, implementing distance classes.
