00:00And as we inform on our first segment, on Monday Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th
00:05President of the United States.
00:06And in this context, we contact our Special Envoy to Washington, D.C., Carlos Montero.
00:11Hi, Carlos.
00:12What can you share with us at this hour?
00:15At this hour, we are processing what Trump said after swearing to be the 47th President
00:24of this country.
00:25There are so many things he said, so many things that they are impossible to do, that
00:30I mean, there are different reactions.
00:32He talks, after swearing in, he talk about Panama, that the canal is going to go back
00:40to USA, something is absolutely impossible.
00:44The President of Panama already said, you know, that's not going to happen.
00:48He talk about immigration, something he said a lot during the campaign about deportation,
00:54is scaring a lot of people here in the capital, in the whole country.
01:00Let's see what's happen tomorrow, maybe in Chicago they are going to start massive deportation.
01:05He talk about the situation in the border, he's going to declare emergency, something
01:11he's already active.
01:12There is an application that people who wants to apply to come to this country legally,
01:19they can ask for an appointment in this application.
01:24The application is discontinued in this moment, so a lot of people are upset for that, because
01:29if they want to come here legally, that application was something that was helping them a lot.
01:35Now they cannot do it, so it's really something, maybe they are going to try to come illegally,
01:41you don't know, to cross the border.
01:43He's going to send more military to the border.
01:47He talk about Mars, he said that the American flag is going to be on Mars, Elon Musk, one
01:53of his faithful helpers, he won the election, he was really happy, he was in the Congress
02:02with, also Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook was there, Chepezo, the owner of
02:09Amazon was there.
02:10Also, there were not many people because it was done in a small place, due to the weather
02:16is very cold, the idea was to do it outside, but they have to do it in the rotunda of
02:21the Congress, a place that no more than two, three hundred people, they were allowed.
02:26But the people who want to see Donald Trump here in the capital, they were expecting two
02:31hundred thousand people, I'm sure much less came when they found out on Friday that he's
02:36going to be inside the ceremony and all the traditional parade and festivities.
02:43But all those people, they are in a stadium, a stadium that's really close to where we
02:47are, a few blocks, there is a lot of security there, it's called the Capital One Arena,
02:53it's where the basketball team, the men and women, WNBA, NBA, they play there, the Wizards
03:00of Washington, it has a capacity for 20,000 people, they are there right now, and Donald
03:05Trump, after signing those executive orders, he said they're going to be around 100, he's
03:11in the White House right now, and he's going to go there.
03:15Over there, there are a lot of people waiting, they want to celebrate the presidency, the
03:21comeback of Donald Trump during the whole afternoon, there were different groups, different
03:26celebrities talking to the crowd, some of them, they spent the whole night outside,
03:32it was extremely cold, it was minus 10 degrees Celsius in the middle of the night, but they
03:37were camping outside, so today, this morning, when they opened the doors, they were the
03:42first one to get in, and there was a big scream, and they can watch the ceremony in the Congress
03:48in that place, Trump is going to be there, and he's going to talk to them, and we are
03:52going to pay attention to what he has to say, but we are already still processing all those
03:58announcements he did today in his first speech as President of the USA, I'm going back to
04:04you to the studio.
04:06That's for all the information.
04:10We were speaking to our special envoy, Carlos Montero, in the framework of the swearing-in
