    On today's podcast: Venezuela In Venezuela, the public consultation on the new amnesty law for democratic coexistence is progressing, and it is anticipated that it could be approved in a second reading, possibly on Friday, after having been approved last Thursday by the National Assembly.  Over the weekend, communal peace judges joined the consultation process, participating in territorial debates as part of the expanded dialogue that the Parliamentary Commission is carrying out before the final debate on the law. Portugal In Portugal, the former socialist minister Antonio Jose Seguro won the runoff of the presidential elections against the far-right leader Andre Ventura by a decisive 2-1 margin. Seguro's victory marks the return of a left-wing figure to the presidency of Portugal, 20 years after Jorge Sampaio left office in 2006. United States And in the United States, Puerto Rican singer Bud Bunny, recent Grammy winner for Best Album and an outspoken critic of trans-immigration policies, turned his appearance at yesterday's Super Bowl, which was watched by more than 120 million viewers, into a political and cultural act.  He sang exclusively in Spanish, celebrated Latino culture in the U.S., and directly denounced ICE, La Migra, as a symbol of immigration persecution.  Banners against ICE and Trump's immigration policies were seen in the stands, a striking image of the rejection that his brutal repressive measures, mostly against Latinos, provoke, and of the deep polarization the country is experiencing as a result of his political agenda both nationally and internationally.

    The News with Jorge Gestoso

    On today's podcast Colombia In Colombia, President Gustavo Petro described as a coup the exclusion of the candidate from his party, Ivan Cepeda, the front-runner heading into the presidential elections, from the March 8th inter-party primary by the National Electoral Council.  Petro argued that this is a deliberate attempt by the right-wing sectors within the CNE to remove Cepeda from the race, with the aim of fragmenting the left, favoring the right and thereby altering the democratic process.  For his part, candidate Ivan Cepeda denounced the CNE's decision as arbitrary and without legal basis, calling it a serious sign of institutional interference, and announced that he will now seek to win the May elections directly. Iran Iran confirmed that talks with the United States will take place this Friday in Oman, a move seen as a sign that recent tensions between the two countries are easing.  Tehran has made very clear that it is willing to talk only if the dialogue focuses on the nuclear program. China / Taiwan And the Chinese government warned the United States to exercise caution regarding arms shipments to Taiwan, as the territory is considered part of the Chinese territory.  Beijing said that military strengthening Taiwan could turn the Taiwan Strait into a powder keg and increase the risk of confrontation or military conflict between China, the US and Taiwan.
