00:00We begin going live with the mobilizations in Caracas in Plaza Venezuela where the people are
00:04showing support to the president Nicolás Maduro after one month of the presidential elections
00:09where he was elected president of Venezuela. Gladys Quezada with the details. Hi Gladys,
00:14can you tell us about it? Hi Ana, thanks for this contact and the time with you,
00:23our audience, and tell us your English as a whole. Yes, currently I'm at CAN TV,
00:28one of the many points of this march and the concentration of the people from sectors that
00:34are popular or working class because they came here to celebrate the victory of Nicolás Maduro
00:39Moros, the president of the Bolivarian nation of Venezuela. I have to say this is one of the
00:45largest marches that has been held here in Caracas because usually, traditionally, this is the point
00:51from the marches going on, you know, the march, this is the encounter point, the gathering point,
00:56and in this occasion, that point, the gathering one, was in Plaza Venezuela. There, the first
01:03vice president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela and also the minister of the interior
01:08relationships and justice and peace, Diozao Cabello, he was addressing the crowd and also he
01:14was explaining to the people the need for unity, the need to combat and face the difficulties and
01:21the attacks by the extreme right wing and also the radical terrorist groups. I have to say and I
01:27have to notify that yesterday the electric grid, the power grid in the nation and precisely here
01:33in Caracas, was a victim or suffered an attack, a terrorist attack that provoked a blackout in
01:40the upper western zone of the city, that's to say Boleíta Norte, one of the many regions in the
01:46north of the city and also in the west part of the city. But as we were referring, this march
01:52is held or is being held despite this kind of attacks, these terrorist actions, and here today
01:59there is a march by the people of different working sectors here in the city. Also the bikers,
02:06the motor bikers, as you can see behind me, they are also marching in support of president
02:11Nicolás Maduro Moros and in support of the Bolivarian revolution and many of them are also
02:16rejecting the interference in the internal affairs of Venezuela. They are just, you know,
02:22they are doing noises because that's the way they have to support the president.
02:29They are marching, this is the way that people march in Venezuela and I have to say the motorizados,
02:35which is the bikers here in Caracas and in Venezuela, it was a sector that was, you know,
02:41under discrimination by the radical extreme wind and back in 2014 and 2017 they were attacked,
02:48physically attacked, in ambushes here in the city. They were also tried to be slaughtered
02:54but right now the revolution has, you know, gave them this opportunity to march, to express
03:00themselves and they are included in the projects of the socialist Bolivarian revolution. As you
03:05can see behind me, people are still marching, the bikers are still going on but this march
03:10is coming, is coming from Plaza Venezuela and is going through the center of the city,
03:16downtown Caracas, towards the seat of the government, Miraflores palace. There,
03:21there will be a contact, an encounter between the authorities of the nation and the people that is
03:29mobilizing in support of president Nicolás Maduro Moros and rejecting the attacks, the attempts
03:34against justice, against the law and against the institutions of Venezuela. Ana, we are back to you.
03:41Thank you Gladys very much for your explanation and your presence there in Plaza Venezuela with
03:46the people in support of the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro. And now we continue with the news.
