00:00On Tuesday, the Secretary of the United States, Marco Rubio, began a two-day tour of the Caribbean
00:05aimed at further restricting the Cuban humanitarian mission, attacking Venezuela's energy sovereignty
00:09and reducing China's commercial presence in the region. The U.S. envoy's diplomatic agenda
00:14includes trips to Jamaica, Guyana and Suriname, which intend to defend his decision of restricting
00:19visas to officials linked to the Cuban medical missions. The action against the country's
00:24medical personnel has been repeatedly denounced by the Cuban government. In addition, Rubio is
00:28expected to meet with Guyanese President Irfan Ali under the pretext of ensuring the country's
00:33energy production, with the intention of ignoring the lack of delimitation of the
00:36Ezequiel region, an attempt against Venezuelan sovereignty over the territory.
