    The News with Jorge Gestoso

    On today's podcast Venezuela Venezuela's Acting president, Delcy Rodriguez, welcomed the decision by the United States to remove her name from the sanctions list, the so-called Clinton list, on which she had been included since 2018.  The lifting of sanctions on Delsi Rodriguez allows her U.S.-recognized government to regain operational control of CITCO and other PDVSA subsidiaries, a key step in normalizing relations between Caracas and Washington as part of a broader process to unfreeze Venezuelan assets abroad.  Iran - United States Iran responded firmly this Thursday to Trump's Wednesday night speech in which he threatened to return the Islamic Republic to the Stone Age, stating that this war will continue until the humiliation of the U.S., its disgrace, repentance and capitulation.  In addition, Iran once again emphasized that the Strait of Hormuz is not close to the world but remains open to international transit and is only restricted for the United States and its allies' considered enemies. Argentina In Argentina, the Teachers' Union succeeded in suspending articles of the labor reform promoted by the far-right pro-U.S. Millet, a reform that dismantles workers' rights achieved over more than a century of struggle.  After learning of the judiciary's ruling, the Argentine Teachers' Union stated that it is essential to guarantee fair wages and adequate conditions for the educational process and not to restrict the collective rights of Argentine workers.

    On today's podcast Palestine - Israel - death penalty law Palestine describes as a human rights violation the approval of the death penalty in Israel, a law that obliged military courts to apply execution by hanging, except in certain cases, to Palestinian prisoners who are deemed responsible for the death of Israeli citizens in what are classified as acts of terrorism.  In an official statement, Palestine stated that the new legislation contradicts the fourth Geneva Convention by undermining protections for individuals and the right to a fair trial.  It was also indicated that the law constitutes a violation of the international covenant of civil and political rights.  Middle East  In the Middle East, Iran launched wave eighty-eight of true promise four, which includes large scale attacks against US and Israeli targets using drones and ballistic missiles.  They struck military targets in Bahrain, hit an Israeli container ship in the central gulf, demonstrating the expansion of the offensive toward maritime interests and also target a US military base in the United Arab Emirates.  Climate change And climate change continues to take a toll.

    On today's podcast. Venezuela The lawyer of the president of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, is today asking in a federal court in New York that the case against Maduro and his wife, Celia Flores, be dismissed, arguing that the US government is interfering with their right to an adequate defense. In this second hearing today, both once again plead not guilty to the charges against them after being kidnapped in a US military attack on Venezuela on March third that left more than one hundred people dead. At the same time, throughout Venezuela, there have been massive marches in support of Maduro and Flores, large demonstrations demanding their release after their kidnapping and the immediate return of both to their country.  Iran Iran stated that it will end the war when it decides, while it intensified its retaliation with precision attacks against Israeli command centers and US bases. Tehran once again categorically deny any dialogue with the Trump administration when the US attacks persist in their territory and again rejected Washington's proposal that seeks to impose previously rejected terms to end the war. And the United Nations approved by a wide majority a resolution that classifies transatlantic slavery as the most serious crime against humanity despite votes against and abstentions from Western countries.  America In the Americas, the United States voted against as did the pro US far right militia of Argentina, the pro US right wing government of Paraguay abstain, and Ecuador was absent. And that's a well news.
