00:12Hello, good afternoon from the La Carlota Convention Center here in the city of Caracas
00:20where the Anti-Fascist International has officially started with the speech of Executive Vice
00:28President Delsi Rodriguez who said that facing fascism one has to be strong, one has to be

01:02a young delegation actually and one of their representatives, Mr. Igor Kuritsyn from the
01:08organization Young Russia, this is the English translation, is here with us.
01:13Welcome, Mr. Kuritsyn.
01:15How are you?
01:16Good afternoon.
01:17I'm fine and I'm ready to answer your questions.
01:20Thank you very much.
01:22First of all, I would like to know how is your impression of this event?
01:27I and my organization now knew about this festival and we flew on a plane to Venezuela
01:39and visited this awesome festival of anti-fascism.
01:45And there's a lot of Russian people here attending.
01:48How many people are in your delegation, do you know the number?
01:51We have 80 people in our organization, 40 from my organization.
01:59And what is your expectation from this anti-fascist festival?
02:02What do you want to happen here?
02:04What do you want to see?
02:07I'm glad to see people in this festival from various countries and it's so cute what your
02:19people support with ideas and love our president and our country.
02:27And Venezuela is taking quite a leading stance in this organization.
02:32The main seat of this festival is here in Caracas.
02:37How do you evaluate the position of Venezuela in this global fight against fascism and neo-fascism?
02:43I know what our country support with ideas and we visited this festival to know about
02:52your country and your people.
02:58Thank you very much.
02:59So, would you like to add something about Venezuela or about the event?
03:04Anything else you would like to say?
03:06We think that this festival is awesome and I hope that I will visit your country in the
03:15next year.
03:16Okay, thank you very much.
03:18So Mr. Kuritsyn is one of the 80 members coming from Russia, 80 young members, and his organization
03:26has sent 40 delegates to this event.
03:30There are a lot of Russian parliamentarians also participating in this anti-fascist international
03:37that gathered here.
03:38We will have the opportunity to later talk to some of them also, but we see, we notice
03:45that there is a huge interest towards this organization, towards this event in the Russian
03:52Federation.
03:53Obviously, the Russian Federation, which has a strong history, this is worth emphasizing,
03:59in the struggle against fascism, it is the Russian Federation, the Soviet Union that
04:05has defeated the European fascism in the Second World War.
04:10This is worth reminding.
04:11So they are here and they are attending the sessions.
04:15In the afternoon, different sessions will take place in the topics women, students,
04:21young movements, social movements, native people, workers will be another topic as well
04:28as, as I mentioned, the parliamentarians that gathered together in this anti-fascist international
04:35that has started today and will last until the 11th of January 2025.
04:43Thank you very much, Juno, for your remark and also your guest in the interview and this.
