san diego union tribune in 1980 when the editors came to me and said, "we'd like you to go to central america and photograph post-revolutionary nicaragua and the current civil war in el salvador and guatemala." and the theme of that entire three-month photo essay was revolution on our doorstep. [ screaming ] i saw dead bodies all over the place. took me into the jungles, learning how to work with the police and the army. so i had to learn my skills in spanish. i had to improve them. i had to learn how to spend money and stay within budget. i had to learn how to try to get these images back to the newspaper. so nothing you can learn in school in that regard. [ speaking in foreign language ] when i'm working in mexico or latin america, i'm very comfortable. i'm not a policeman. i'm not, you know. however, in afghanistan and iraq and in some parts of africa, i would hire what's called a fixer, and a fixer is somebody who knows politics, knows how to drive, knows the terrain and, in afghanistan and iraq, knows how to shoot. so that's how you diminish the danger because the danger, like i learned

the results of sunday's presidential elections in guatemala, the largest country in central america, in the mid-fifties, turned out to be sensational. there non-stop optical camp, with which in the middle of those very fifties the cia melted down about what this means for world politics sergey brilev, and for guatemala bernardo's victory is an areola sensation, but many will naturally ask, but what is more of this for us, why are the results of the guatemalan elections important to us too? so it's not enough, of course, such an exotic exotic, but there are very clear stories, a victorious boy in the first year of the revolution, during which almost universal suffrage was introduced. after all, it is a minimal format. and for that the guatemalan was the 1954 coup d'état in his last radio address overthrown then president arvens said it was an act of revenge on the part of the fruit companies, what kind of fruit companies are there in central america six republics, but sad jokers in the state the american fruit company was once called the united company from cia documents were needed a

you drive into those central areas of south america, where it's a weather we'll try to break the heat on the next week. as we push down towards the river, play some ranges pushing in here somewhere all the way, whether to just around southern parts of mexico. we do have a developing storm just off shore, and that's for and then a lot of moist uh, full southern and western parts of mexico, scattering the showers. meanwhile, across central america so much whether they're into cuba. but for the, my islands, it's not looking too bad, perhaps seeing some of that west. the weather just coming into the league, which as we go on through sunday, but a good deal of sunshine in between. sunshine, contagious across the deep south of the us. we have seen some bottom stones recently around the tennessee valley pushing down towards the fall. se more big storms around the northern plains easing over towards the upper midwest headed that losey font and dry. but the rain will make its way to new york. it's a top destination for travelers seeking them by the paradise experience. but the idyllic archipel

we need to invest not only in mexico, the u.s., canada, but also central america.ed to invest in the places where the origin of human flows is coming from. so i guess that we have a tremendous opportunity to -- or we have to give of course rules, clear rules, enforcement by the u.s.. someone was talking about that. the three countries will have to work on how best we consolidate these mechanisms and instruments we have created. mr. marczak: we are past the halfway point of the first six years of the usmca agreement. is mexico's dutch as mexico secretary, i would like to focus on regional global issues you mentioned as well. regionally yesterday there was a tragic assassination in could or of the presidential candidate, fernando. at the cowardly act in could or. a tragedy that reflects the incredible security challenge that country faces. i would like to give you an opportunity to comment on yesterday's event in good or as mexico's foreign secretary. sec. barcena: we are very sorry. we regret enormously the situation that is happening yesterday. and i talked with th

how many more immigrants from latin american central america do you want to come? that's not really my expertise. honestly. uh, you know, but i, i would say that if, if there's a, if there's a labor market demand and industry circle actually because they don't have a worker's i haven't seen any industries collapsing yet, then you don't have to be somebody decide on what the number is i think the united states is probably the most generous nation in the world for legal immigration, a 1000000 a year, at least we bring and you know, many, many thousands of refugees and people who are coming in for a student to, to attend our universities and to for, for exchange, these exchange of students, scholar, it scholarly exchanges and that sort of thing. i mean, the categories are vast, of the people that we do allow and legally, i think the united states is pretty generous. um, but you know, maybe one day when uh, you know, an industry start to collapse for lack of workers then you know, congress needs to step in and decide to lift a cap or to somewhere. yeah. those kind of g

the lee would dials less so elsewhere in central america. and you'll notice that the swell of cloud, or orange of shots are developing tropical storm, has in house to generals in south and mexico. so the size, most of brazil is looking fine. lots is one was it was in the pals, you'll nice but 50 degrees about right. very right though, for most of the day the weather brought to you by visit cuts on frank assessments. $3000000000.00. is it going to be enough to get back? is known as economy back on track. the short answer is no informed opinions for those who are attempting to flee to chat. how dangerous is that? the journey is incredibly difficult for many people to manage to get out. but it's a great cost in depth analysis of the days headlines, questions really, who controls that goes on an outer space in the future will be governments for won't be big part of the corporations and individuals across the billing. there's inside story on al jazeera, the the welcome back. you're watching out a 0 reminder of our top stories at this hour. there'

but you've also covered central america of brazil, gangs in jamaica we will get to yemen's book and a little bit later, gun money about the flow of of a huge number of weapons flowing in the united into mexico, but just because it's so much in the news lately, i just want to look a little bit more at. the fentanyl crisis and maybe. can you those people come to some of the basics and why it is kind of in recent years, a lot of the cartels in mexico have taken a shift away from almost what we'd call plant based, you know, narcotics, you know, the huge fields of marijuana or opium or coca leaves, you know, that could be, you know, need large amounts of space to be grown too. synthetic drugs, a lot of ways are much more deadly, much more lethal, such as fentanyl and other synthetic opioids. what exactly. is fentanyl how is it created and why is it so, i suppose, attractive to the cartels? and why is it so concerning to everyone, you know, beyond the cartels? mexico in the united states. yeah. thank you very much. and yes, it was great. be here again. i've got a good relationship with hous

that energy is also spilling into panama and for central america. so our usual scattering of showers and storms, but particularly for the eastern caribbean here, got a lot of wet weather in the mix. now for the us desert southwest, it is all about hillary, california. as we look toward arizona and nevada. some of these states could pick up to more than a years worth of rain over the next little bit. there will be flooding here and there will be much sites. now as we look at this batch of, we start to actually see a port in to oregon and also montana state. but this is good news because we do have some wildfire as burning here. so that will help to dallas. the flames wins turnaround, just to touch. so that means the temperature in toronto is now down to $27.00. look at the senior up to 35, but if you think that's hot, we've got to go to the us called states. we've set some records here. temperature is pretty close to 40 degrees. for example, in arkansas, little rock, we've got your pencil then for 39 on monday, see in a bit low as i go to you by visi

launch attacks on a large scale against the coasts of the western hemisphere, south america and central americaoin forces to germany and italy. in the persian gulf we would be helping to overrun turkey and syria and iraq and persia that is now aired on in egypt and the suez canal. the whole coast of north africa itself and with that inevitably the whole coast of west africa putting germany within easy striking distance of south america. 1500 miles away. to protect the supply line with britain and russia we would help to deprive britain of the central food supplies and munitions. those americans who believe that we could live under the illusion of isolationism. now many of those same people afraid we may be sticking our necks out want our national bid to be turned into a turtle that we prefer to retain as it is playing high and striking hard. i know i speak for the mouths of the amican people when i say that we object the policy and continue increasingly the policy of carrying the law after the enemy in distant lands and distant waters as far away as possible from our own home grounds. the four

the ability to see in this huge area of operations, talking about the caribbean, central america and south america, huge. to be able to see and our partners want to be able to see. they cannot see. i go back to sharing agreements, having partners that we can share information with that they do not have, the p.r.c. backbone for technology and their telecommunications, and then being able to make them aware of that. so we are very innovative. i could talk about traditional isr, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, traditional, but then we have been successful, i think, at southcom . we don't sit around and wait for someone to give us something. we figure out innovative and -- you know, how do we come up with some ideas and approaches ourselves and whatever technology is out there and i think we have been successful in doing that. congress has helped us out in terms of the ability to provide capability in place of military capabilities that is not as good but it's a capability and we certainly exploit that and take advantage of that and look for ways we can expand it. and as i

coming from i think most people imagine well, i gus coming from mexico they are coming from a central americas all over the globe at this point. maria: china how about russia. >> i was going to say you pointing out idea, of number of chinese immigrants coming in males we have no idea really who they are. >> military aged men according to border agents. >> no it solving with border czar kamala harris getting this under i don't like, in a sense here, this is a problem that we have with the region, the lack of resources series attention paid to relationship with mexico, with central america, that is a big part of what is going on, so, they were not incorrect saying we need a border czar they just needed someone competent. >> we will see how much competence she shows when jobs numbers are out joe biden on vacation she is spending about jobs. the border new york city officials are so strapped for money, ideas how to handle this crisis migrant cries reportedly considering housing them in central park, comedian bill maher slamming over this. >> could everybody stop the postureing, don't pretend that

reach out to them because of the same people i dealt with going all the way back to the wars in central america in particular, elliott abrams and robert kagan, who was working for him in the state department. and it doesn't matter how wrong they are, and we know wrong they are, because there are all these promises about implanting democracy in baghdad and emanating out across the middle east and what all of the fiascos that they have orchestrated? they're never held to account for number one. and number two, their platforms always secured because, of course, they're funded by the war industry, all of their think tanks, brookings council, are awash in the money from the weapons industry. and of course, they have a lock on the media. so i you know, let's go back to the first iraq war. so i speak arabic seven years in the middle east, covered it for the new york times. but because i didn't repeat, the care of the dominant narrative, the so-called expert, it's who were trotted out. i don't they could find most countries in the middle east on a map they certainly didn't have anywhere near the experi

no, he is from asia, from central america, from the criticisms that he rightly said, my son, that you have limited your foreign policy to south asian countries to eastern countries. this information includes world powers, powers such as the economic power of china and russia military power and the economy, which is known as the gas station of the world, is rich in energy resources from south africa, the economic capital of the african continent, and brazil is the most developed country in latin america , the common denominator of these countries is the southern countries, and in this coalition, they are looking for that regardless of this . the existing world order will create a new order, but in my opinion , it does not always limit our foreign policy as he said, but if we look at the last two years in the 13th government, maybe these have shaped the government's relationship with saudi arabia in regional issues. related to asia, cooperation document 25 for years, iran and china have implemented the issues of the region, and the permanent membership in shanghai has happened again, an

look too at north america, central america, and south america.ould happen if all of these great reservoirs of power were cut off from each other either by enemy action or by self-imposed isolation: first, in such a case, we could no longer send aid of any kind to china--to the brave people who, for nearly five years, have withstood japanese assault, destroyed hundreds of thousands of japanese soldiers and vast quantities of japanese war munitions. it is essential that we help china in her magnificent defense and in her inevitable counteroffensive--for that is one important element in the ultimate defeat of japan. second, if we lost communication with the southwest pacific, all of that area, including australia and new zealand and the dutch indies, would fall under japanese domination. japan in such a case could release great numbers of ships and men to launch attacks on a large scale against the coasts of the western hemisphere-south america and central america, and north america-including alaska. at the same time, she could immediately extend he
