america with oleksiy otkydych, specialist in latin american issues, adastra center. congratulations, mr. oleksiy. good day. well, let's start with the news of the last few days. president argentirachavier. miley will not be present at the peace summit in switzerland, he refused both a meeting with the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi and a meeting with the president of france emmanuel macron, his european tour was significantly shortened. well, until recently we considered mr. miley one of the most important supporters of ukraine in latin america, the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi flew to his inauguration, despite all, i would say, the amazing composition of the participants of this ceremony, such far-right politicians. who appeared there in the company of viktor orban, let's say, other supporters donald trump, and now javier millay does not even want to be present at the peace summit that is taking place, this is the game. a big role is played by several factors at once, firstly, in general, if , what president miley demonstrated, his foreign poli

now we will talk about latin america, despite the fact that it is very, very far away, i was once inmerica, i could not believe that i am from ukraine, well, just look at the map, well, you can't get there for too much . too much , too much time is needed. ivan fichko, expert of the council's latin american and caribbean research program of foreign policy, ukrainian prism. good health, mr. ivan, thank you for visiting us. the first question is about a very exotic country, i started studying it literally the day before yesterday, it's called bolivia, there was such a bolivar, and he was making a revolution there. america and so they would name a whole country after him, but i was surprised to know that rebellions were very common there, but i did not think that since 1800 25 or 24, in fact, when this country was founded, there were about 200 coups or attempted coups, moreover the first coups or attempts were literally a year after the formation, this is how you imagine a coup would be in ukraine. it became independent in 1991, there would be a coup already in 1992, and then in 1993, a

after christianity appears here, and many texts of christianity were written in ancient greek and latinlanguages ​​will greatly help us understand our culture, our way of life, our understanding of this world. classical philology is recruited once every 4 years and this, as we can already see, is a rather rare specialty. recruit only 20 people every 4 years, and the relevance of this specialty today lies in the fact that a lot of texts, including those on the territory of belarus, were written in both latin and greek, the history of our region is also unthinkable without knowledge of these languages. now i am a second year student at the department of classical philology, when i entered here, my main goal was to study these ancient languages. because when i entered the magistracy at the minsk theological academy, i was faced with the fact that in order to study the holy scriptures qualitatively, it is necessary to refer to the texts originals, and the texts of the originals of the sacred... i am studying here today at the faculty of philology, students of classical philology during the

us, we talked with him about what is happening in latin., in relations between ukraine, the countries of this region, which is quite important for the world. now we will break for a few minutes, but you stay with us, there is still an important topic ahead. greetings, this is svoboda live on radio svoboda. we have already approached the serpent himself. the following shots may shock you. news from the scene. kamikaze drone attacks live , political analysis objectively and meaningfully, there is no political season, exclusive interviews, reports from the hottest points of the front, shot svoboda life - frankly and impartially, you draw your own conclusions. we continue. the politclub program on the spressa channel, vitaly portnikov is with you. today is a rather important event, which in principle has been going on for several days in a row, but is coming to an end. in fact, in the next 15-20 minutes we will learn about the exit pools of the elections to the european parliament, which, as you understand, were elected on just these three days

true, despite the fact that these reforms had for the purpose of really reforming the economies of latinican countries and improving the standard of living, they have the most... negative trail behind them, and this is what the young claudio shinbaum, if she learned what she was fighting against, and therefore to say that she would somehow radically change foreign policy, well, it seems unlikely, because yes, politicians evolve and zelensky of 2019 is not zelensky of 2022, but nevertheless some basic principles remain the same, and in the case of claudia schönbaun, i don't see any, say... so grounds for her a sharp change in the current conjuncture, say, both international, and regional, and actually intra-mexico. well, it was the same in mexico many times, remember, when a person appeared from the same institutional revolutionary party that ruled mexico there for almost two centuries, was considered such an obvious representative of the establishment, the heir of the previous president, and then once and for all politics changed by 180° and no one could'. see this at election time? i wo

at gunpoint, and then after a certain time there, a year later , kill, this is a characteristic of latinmerica that we see not only in mexico, that it is local elections, local governors or mayors, they become targets for such cases, mexico, especially the northern states of mexico, it's actually a separate microcosm according to its own rules. there by cartels, criminal groups that compete with each other, we saw a similar situation, for example, in ecuador, when the city of guayaquil, the largest the port of ecuador, one of the largest port cities in latin america on the pacific ocean, several assassination attempts were carried out there and several candidates for mayor of the city of hovaquil were killed, that is, the situation is somewhat similar. on the other hand, if we look at the number of murders in mexico per 100,000 population over the past 5 years, it will steadily decrease. from 27 in 2019 to 23, here are the last figures for 2023, that is, despite all the warnings, mexico still remains a fairly effective state, it is actively developing economically, as i said, it enters t

because we are really islands within latin america.want to pledge to erase the graph 2.2 in the report, where the depiction of the share of the gdp of t 5firm. and of course, chile, 70% of the gdp in chile is explained by the 50 largest firms. but we are at seventof brazil -- we are 1! /7th of brazil's economy, and 1/6th of mexico's economy, so that comparison, it could lead to a very dangerous change of policy. so you have to be very careful in comparing countries. because it has consequences. juan: andrea, i want to go to santiago. when you read the report, the prognosis is that growth is going to be slow, very slow. is there time to implement this? is this something that can be done in the middle and long range? can the mindset to be changed quickly enough for growth to be married should be? guest: it takes time. but it's not so much a question of speed, it's a question of what leticia was it's a question of policy consistency. what you need is to get a good competition law. is not going to work well initially. you're going to make

sergei brilev, who himself specially flew to the forum from latin america.a, which gave a concert last night in the st. petersburg chapel, completed the entire latin american layer of the forum. the peak is when the day before, together with the president of russia in a plenary session a guest from south america also participated. president of a multinational state. you see how many people there are around, precisely of the european type, their grandfathers, at most great-grandfathers, just left here for south america from europe, they left so as not to think about european affairs anymore, now it’s not possible, the european crisis has had an impact, although it would be on fuel and food prices, the question is what to do about it, some latin american presidents, such as the chilean and the ecuadorian, are going to the western conference on ukraine. we have a common agenda because we have the opportunity to develop trade, exchange of goods, investment, this is very important for the potential that venezuela has, but above all, it is because all this can be

of their latin music festival, la onda. i think we're very excited , especially since it's the first one. we feel like we're finally getting like recognition of where we where a lot of us listen to a lot of latin music. jimenez zavala and her boyfriend have been going to bottlerock for years, but they say the new festival will be extra special. i listen to a lot of these, people coming to perform, and i think this is like a very exciting moment for the hispanic community among the headliners, mexican pop rock band mana, who wowed music lovers at last weekend's festival calanche con algo and mexican banda la arrolladora, whose lead singer chatted with us from mazatlan. la musica puede ser mas music brings people together. it crosses frontiers and borders and we play all kinds of music, said sr-1 garcia, who promised to keep fans dancing. he shared a little acapella with us. como lo eres por afuera? along with music, latin food will also take center stage. local restaurant owner fred corona will be serving his family's signat

, i have no problem with latin, you have any problems with latin, i have no problem with latin, becausein latin is a part of western civilization, it is closely related to greek civilization and in general to throughout european civilization, i don't see how those donats send us anywhere. we have a different country, we have cossack trousers, for example, nothing comes from the turkic language, and quiver and so on, nothing, we somehow live with it, but if something comes from latin, from latin, from tradition, then that is also great, there is nothing wrong with that, because we are, we are part of western civilization, i don't have a problem with victims of the ofiri, it goes for our guys, for our defenders, and that means it will be. long live moskals, dear friends, now we will talk with one of our defenders, who has been defending the country since 2014, andriy our father, the commander of the drone crew of flying machines kara nebesna of the fourth brigade of the operational line of the national guard of ukraine is already with us, mr. andriy, we congratulate you, or you just want

military men, well, i will say that the money they pay these mercenaries is quite good , and since in latinountries have problems with poverty, then there are ukrainian mercenaries, including employees of former paramilitary forces... the police there were imitated there and so on, but the war that is now taking place in the north military district zone is fundamentally different from what is in others hot spots around the world, to what extent their experience is applicable, this is already a very pressing question, because it is one thing to fight with some militants in afghanistan and iraq, who have nothing but a machine gun, and another thing to sit under gliding aerial bombs. communications and special operation areas. ukraine, urgent news has arrived, an agreement with the european union pledges to make a positive contribution to ensuring the security of the european union. what we are talking about is not known for certain; ukraine will make a positive contribution, or please give us money from the european union, otherwise putin will destroy us. we have to figure it out. he probably

we have the broad support of the international community, many of our neighbors in latin america, eumember states, and the un secretary general. bolivians respect democracy, are fighting for democracy, stability and peace in our country. we reject the accusations that are being made, they are lies. how can we trust the military. who violate the constitution and rebel against the illegal government that the people elected in 2020 after the coup in 2019. we care about democracy, we fight for our stability, to make the life of bolivians better after the crisis that hit not only our country, but and all over the world. after the pandemic, many countries were affected. many developing countries, not only bolivia, facing the. crises and other difficulties, but from the side of the authorities we are doing everything in our power. i do not imagine that this general pleaded guilty. i think he makes such statements to avoid responsibility. but after he was arrested, we received information from our officials that he admitted that he had attempted a coup d'état. actually, who is general juan j

that was maureen maya with the washington office on latin america center. let's have a quick look now. some of the stories making headlines around the world. the us house of representatives has passed the bill that would sanction the international criminal court for seeking to rest is really officials. the isis chief prosecute that has accused senior is ready officials of the war, crimes and crimes against humanity for their handling of the war. and garza, the sanctions bill is unlikely to pass the democratic controlled senate back for sewage clause 8, a rule 20. the unfinished businesses of unions and nigeria have suspended a general strike for a week and initial walk out on monday shots at apple schools and government offices as well. interrupting power supplies, unions us taking a high, a minimum wage, double digit inflation, has left millions of nigerian struggling to buy food. so you're watching the news off next. here on the calendar, we meet the young people in india, in a documentary looking at their dreams and hopes for the future. stay tuned for t

i think he is a populist and a demagogue of a very old latin american tradition. and this is why i thought his election was good news — of implementing the peace agreements of 2016, which had been disregarded or actively sabotaged by the last conservative government of ivan duque. he hasn't... it's not looking so good right now, is it? i mean, as i understand it, of the different armed groups... because he seems to be saying that he wants a, you know, an ultimate peace and a disarming of all the groups, including criminal gangs as well as insurgent rebel groups and paramilitary groups, he wants them all to be in this umbrella of total peace. yes. well, of the 20 or more different armed groups, only about five are currently engaging with the government. yes, and not only that, to me, the bad side of the whole project is that he is taking away from the 2016 agreements, all the attention and the resources and the rhetorical energy of the government. so he is forgetting them, leaving them to die a slow death through inattention, through negligence, concentrating on hi

churchill - freemason, italy. there garibaldi was a freemason, in latin america there are generally alleople there, practically freemasons, all the fighters for the independence of latin america, starting with bolivar, they are all freemasons, so of course their role is certainly very great, but of course we will talk first let's talk about russia, about what they did in russia, how they were treated, including let's talk about modern freemasonry, there is a very interesting situation with the freemasons, this is a society. preserving fraternal unity and friendship in their midst, however, this did not at all prevent the masons from sending each other to prison or hell in different political situations. freemasonry is, rather, for most of its history, these are rather such clubs, mainly for representatives of the nobility, although there were representatives of the lower strata, but they usually did not rise beyond the lower degrees, clubs of interests, political clubs, which at different times provided a certain influence on politics, if we talk about russia, and not about freemasonry

we begin the story with latin america.standing latin america is extremely difficult, but if you can do it, it's a love of a lifetime. our team visited brazil and argentina, they, of course, have their own specifics, different history, traditions, mentalities, present, but there is a place for belarus in the heart of each region. the largest economy in latin america is more than 10,000 km from belarus, but is this an obstacle to the modern and fast world? the country across the atlantic ocean calls itself industrial-agrarian and pays great attention to the development of the agro-industrial complex. you feel notes familiar to belarus. there is virtually an endless field for the application of technology. brazil is the fifth largest in area and the seventh largest in population in the world, after the united states it is the second largest economy in the western hemisphere. and only in advertising brochures is brazil a country. exotic beaches, coffee and carnival, all this is there, but the palette of local life is much rich

we cannot say that... despite its economic weight, it is one of the largest economies, not only in latin, in general and in the entire western hemisphere, mexico currently does not play a major role in regional politics. but can the foreign policy of mexico change under the presidency of claudia scheinba, that's what it will be mexico's position on russia's war against ukraine? well, andrés manuel lópez obrador is known to have called for an end many times. fire, ah, an immediate ceasefire between ukraine, ukraine and russia, and claudia sheinbaum once supported his calls, she said that the war in ukraine is only feeding the big arms manufacturers and harming millions of people, this was in september 2022, and there is no more detailed position on this issue, it directly, according to some observers, will mainly continue the policy obrador, and in this matter, in fact, for ukrainian diplomacy, which will still try to build bridges with the new president of mexico, it is very important to invite her to ukraine so that she can see what is happening here, the ruins that she has created russ
