    On today's podcast Venezuela Venezuela's Acting president, Delcy Rodriguez, met with victims of political violence calling for deeper national reconciliation. She stressed that what must truly be healed is hatred and intolerance toward those who think differently or have a different skin colour or religion.  Delcy Rodriguez added, I have had to sit face to face with my father's executioners, with the executioners of our heroes and heroines of January 3rd, and I have done so for Venezuela, for our children, for the future of Venezuela, and for what is most sacred, sovereignty and independence, Rodriguez said.  Russia-Ukraine This Tuesday marks four years since the beginning of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, while Russia and the US are seeking to negotiate an end to the fighting, Europe refuses to accept Kiev's defeat and is attempting to prolong the conflict.  Russia's foreign intelligence service claim in a statement that the United Kingdom and France want to arm Ukraine with a nuclear weapon or at least with a dirty bomb.  Peru As a consequence of climate change, heavy rains in Peru have affected several regions, leaving at least four people dead in Arequipa, south of Lima, where sixteen districts have been declared under a state of emergency.  Ecuador In Ecuador, the government declared red and orange alerts due to flooding and overflowing rivers as a result of an intense rainy season affecting the country.

    On today's podcast Mexico In Mexico, President Claudia Sheinbaum, following the confirmation of the death of the drug lord known as El Mencho, affirmed that his elimination represents a significant step in the fight against organized crime in the country, but she highlighted that violence in several regions remains a challenge.  At this moment, Mexico is experiencing a tense situation, with security forces deployed at various points to maintain the order, and repercussions from these events are expected to unfold nationally.  Iran-Middle East-U.S. In the Middle East, Iran reiterated its stance of not yielding to external pressures that undermine its sovereignty, following threats from President Trump, who has not ruled out military actions against the Persian nation. The next round of nuclear talks between Iran and the U.S. is scheduled for this Thursday in Geneva, Switzerland.  Palestine And over 600 Palestinians have been killed by Israel's offensive in Gaza since the beginning of the truce in October, actions that have been condemned as genocide.  In addition, the Ministry of Health in the enclave reported over 700 bodies recovered from the rubble and nearly 1,000 wounded.

Ecuador Thousands of Ecuadorians march toward the National Assembly in Quito against the urgent economic bill promoted by the neoliberal pro-U.S. President Daniel Noboa.  The demonstrators denounce that the initiative severely limits spending allocated to public services and social programs in health, education, security, and culture.  Argentina And in an alarming setback for the labor rights of Argentines, the Chamber of Deputies approved the labor reform of the far-right Milei, dismantling protections won by generations of workers dating back to the 20th century.  The bill now returns to the Senate for final approval, while the International Monetary Fund has already voiced its support for Millet's reform as part of its structural demand for Argentina, prioritizing the attraction of investment over the human dignity of Argentine workers.

    On today's podcast Peru Peru has a new interim president, Jose Maria Balcazar, 83 years old, affiliated with the leftist Peru Libre Party, the party of ousted President Pedro Castillo, and with controversial background issues that cast doubt on his integrity amid the country's chronic institutional crisis. Balcazar, after taking office by designation of Congress without a popular vote, is the eighth Peruvian president in the last 10 years.  He will govern for only five months until July, when the newly elected president assumes office following the presidential elections scheduled for April. He faces urgent challenges such as a stagnant economy with inflation and rising insecurity. Cuba / Rusia Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez was received by President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin amid Cuba's severe energy and fuel crisis caused by the U.S. oil embargo. Putin reaffirmed Russia's unwavering support for Cuba and described the new U.S. restrictions and sanctions as unacceptable. For his part, Rodriguez, after the meeting, deeply thanked Putin and the Russian government for their firm and continued solidarity in the face of the blockade and energy squeeze, highlighted the strategic importance of bilateral relations and reiterated that Cuba will not change its political course under pressure. Argentina And in a scenario of economic suffocation and massive layoffs, Argentina, under the far-right pro-United States Milei, is experiencing this Thursday what is expected to be a day of total paralysis in the fourth general strike called by the CGT, the General Confederation of Workers, against Milei's Labor Reform Bill, which seeks to make employment more precarious.

    On today's podcast Peru  At this hour, Peru is facing a new institutional crisis following the removal of its Interim President Jose Jeri on corruption charges.  In the last decade, Peru has had seven presidents, most of them right-wing and removed for corruption.  Peru is scheduled to hold presidential elections in less than two months, and the two frontrunners are right-wing and aligned with pro-United States positions.  United States This Wednesday in Washington marks the inaugural meeting of the so-called Peace Council for Gaza, a group promoted and led by President Trump to address the crisis in Gaza following the Israeli offensive in the enclave, which has been described as a genocide.  In contrast to the far-right pro-U.S. Javier Milei, who is participating in the body, Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum said her country will not join this Trump-led Peace Council due to the exclusion of the Palestinian state from the entity while Israel is included.  Spain In Spain, the third day of a national doctor's strike is taking place in protest against the new framework statute, which they accuse of failing to recognize their specific working conditions, maintaining long and poorly paid on-call shifts, and not warrantying wage and labor improvements in a conflict that could extend through June if no agreement is reached with the government.

    On today's podcast Guatemala Maria Consuelo Porras, the attorney general described as corrupt and a puppet of the pact of the corrupt, has been called by the United Nations to be investigated for alleged links to the illegal adoption of at least eighty indigenous children.  Porras, who has systematically attempted to remove social democratic president Bernardo Arebalo and his party from political life, is described as a political disgrace who prioritizes political sabotage over justice, perpetuating ultra-right impunity to maintain oligarchic power and corruption, thus eroding Guatemala's democracy. Palestine / Israel Israeli occupation forces continue to violate international law and Palestinian territory by advancing their expansionist plans in the West Bank, declaring it state property and putting land up for sale.  The decision has been strongly criticized as a massive land robbery, an illegal de facto annexation of Palestinian territory that seriously violates international law and has drawn condemnation from the Palestinian authority, the United Nations, the European Union, the Arab countries, and multiple other governments around the world. Honduras Honduras is beginning to feel the negative impact on its economy from Trump's decision to impose a one percent tax on remittances sent from the United States and the cancellation of the TPS, the temporary protected status which benefited more than fifty thousand Honduras, potentially resulting in losses of nearly three hundred million dollars for the country.  Meanwhile, Nasry Asfura, declared president by the National Electoral Council, continues to be strongly denounced as a product of an electoral coup and a massive electoral fraud under the interference of Trump who ordered Honduras to vote for this pro United States ultra-right politician.
