South and Central America and the cia theres a lot of stories. We are very hopeful that there could be a transition of venezuelans i was just down in mexico city and in bogota week before last talking about this very issue trying to help them understand the things they might do so that they can get a better outcome for c. N. N. Can now confirm the President Trump asked a number of his top Foreign Policy advisers last summer about the possibility of invading venezuela thank you. And now opposition needs you on one has declared himself the countrys new president have you also the president of the United States for any military support in your struggle by and saw it on the market as hes going to and i wouldnt terms of taking decisions that even though this is a dictatorship the Little People want to advance with whatever pressure is needed this is no time for dialogue this is time for. Any negotiations with nicolas maduro. No. The strange thing about the coup threat of invasion is that they didnt just come from the usa. Supporters of the right wing opposition asked for a foreign country to invade then as you. And i made the mistake of answering one of them. I told him it had happened in greece back in the days of nazi collaborators. I hadnt noticed that the person had hundreds of thousands of followers on twitter. Dozens of them offered to teach me new expressions in english and spanish. Using teaching methods from the t. V. Series norcos. Call. Either whole day. Key. Was when i received an interesting message. I had just been given my next mission my dear twitter friends explained that if i was a real journalist and wanted to understand venezuela i had to go to the border with colombia. They were absolutely right ringback ringback. Thats not what i boarded a bus with dozens of venezuelans leaving the country. Just a nation the Border Crossing out in colombia. A place where the local mafia random to members of colombias civil war paramilitary groups me to operate only. For breakdowns one flat tire and an attack with stones flying past my head resulted in a 19 hour journey. Plenty of time to Read International press articles on venezuelas immigrants and refugees. From reuters to the daily mirror dozens of stories repeating that the case here resembles syria and the row hinge of people of my own. They compared an economic crisis to a civil war and genocide. In the news i mostly saw people leaving the country here i could see a few returning to venezuela even within a day. The import. Those humanity even the scene a study based. On. At the colombian border i experienced one of the many side effects of economic collapse but i learned nothing new about what caused it. Surprisingly i found more answers in a town just 40 kilometers east of san cristobal. Hundreds of. Hours of gas stations. This was another artificial shortage caused by private. Smugglers collaborating with local offices buying gas and other government subsidized commodities in colombia. Taking advantage of that price controls contraband goods have become a lucrative business in neighboring colombia where these products can sell for prices at least 10. 00 times more it is estimated that almost 40 percent of them this will is food is illegally transported across the border. Hiding food away in storage for political and economic purposes is bad enough. Not being able to find gasoline when you have the biggest oil reserves is a real. Especially when the government provides gas almost feel free. To understand what was going on i had to return to caracas where the gasoline flows generously. As i couldnt reconcile the Oil Production in my mind i decided to watch somebody whos been. Following Venezuelas Energy policy professor Carlos Mendoza patella. A consultant on Energy Issues for the central bank of venezuela. We begin. The series. As. It gave us what we never see even or nah. You know again not a moment there aint dont think. Ill. Go but i thank you oh. God. According to International Media of venezuela failed even though its been proved to have the Worlds Biggest Oil reserves. Is that really true. In foss hes. Being. Shown these. Relief and i know you know. Hes. Is ahead of. You on that but that only. You have that. I suppose when you. Get a sale. This. Local the way to his even willing to put on that island. But up and if you. Will in critical. So you know. Please. Live live live. Live. Live. Live live. Live. Live live. Live live. Live. Live. Live. Oh. Please. Live. So. Slim. And very well might continue watching on since last. But if she warned you and i do. Dishes at the balls more than those jeans near the speech and she me we. Can use i mean that is without infringing ball. A lot of people see sawing during fuzzy fights about the both sides. But as in the middle east as if. These. People got cabinet but i found days doing. A. New human included. I was i was. I was i was. Was. Even with the older nuclear reserves venezuela has a lot of oil. So how did it get into its current situation. Many people told me that it suffers from a strange disease. And familial and theres a scene about. We can see these. I think its. Because its called the dutch disease and i thought i should go to whole and. Sadly we see that many of these countries and much worse Economic Performance much worse in a call to you much more poverty than before the end or well for the gas well or the mineral wealth so thats been cold im dutch myself thats been called the dutch disease. The dutch disease is something which is taught in that sneddons was one of the main gas exports he had all this gas he holding on the north part of holland around as a result of the gas being exported it was a lot of extra mom for the guild or for the currency that pushed up the value of the guild and the maiden very strong currency but as a result of that the rest of the industry that it was became less competitive found a more difficult to export to bowl so although we were well through in terms of gas industry people suffering in my to be causing on the point. Venezuela has suffered from the dutch disease since the 930 s. When oil income was converted into holidays clothes and mentions for the elite. Sea economy so. But do you and i. Know. These will. If we see a bank well get but if the moon. Is it. Wouldnt kill the dutch disease. But for the 1st time an oil revenue wasnt going to the elite well lots of foreign multinationals. Lets look 1st at the old times and shove estoril still alive then chavez split a lot of the money over the oil the huge oil money even sure that gets to helping the people of venezuela so he put it into the Education System and put it into the Health Care System and if you can poverty. Whatever bad things he can see a bunch of his death most true. His successes. Is a different story now we do have a story about the old price was doing high but more money went to the needs of the poor people who are suffering the most by the poor people who go dryads rest and then they go to hit by the Bush Administration at any old rich country that the old price collapse. Along with the Oil Price Collapse came a financial in from the usa. Podium over to stephen for this purpose were going to announce sanctions against petroleum to venezuela associate the name were paid if they says its known by its spanish acronym the state oil monopoly were looking at the oil assets thats the single most important income stream to the government of venezuela it will make a big difference to the United States economically if we could have. American Oil Companies invest in and produce the oil capabilities in venezuela. And i reached the source of the absurdity in venezuelas economy. Then when i tried to exchange the dollars i had with me. As well as the official Exchange Rate for the. Black market right. Merchants and find the prevailing black market Exchange Rate from a facebook page. Now things have changed they can find it on instagram. The administrator is. Going to look. Maybe an opponent of the regime in the usa some say well maybe. One thing was certain by controlling the Exchange Rate anyone could citizens against their government. They. Saw. 2 opposing sides of fame trying to explain the crisis in venezuela. The government supporters the suffering is caused by america. Internal economics. Used as an excuse. To blame. Prosperous nation. This is not a failed state. This is the socialist dilemma. Because actually during the period you know the. Private sector. They didnt come anywhere near. 55. Years. Even when. Companies mainly of. The private sector group. The public. And. Economic growth. Was double that of the usa and poverty was down by 50 percent. International media attributed the gross to capitalism. But when the crisis struck socialism was blamed on. 66. Of the 2 main narratives putting the blame on sanctions or on socialism the reality i saw in venezuela was much more complex. And maybe. Chavezs bolivarian revolution inherited all the structural problems that the economy had faced in the 20th century. The dutch disease the destroyed production high inflation and huge inequalities. But for the 1st time while revenues did not flow into the hands of the few and foreign Oil Companies. That were distributed to the people. Then under constant economic war huge mistakes were made mainly in monetary policy. When oil prices collapsed all those problems old and new came to the surface. The ball was still poor and the rich who was still rich decided to take revenge. I travelled far trying to. There was something. George w. Bush the president of the United States government of iraq and the future of your country. Along to you. In the battle of iraq the United States and our allies have prevailed. What we can do and will do is support the aspirations of the libyan people. The soft side. I might perhaps the Vice President of the United States. And on behalf of President Donald Trump and all the american people. Let me express the unwavering support of the United States is you the people of venezuela raise your voices in a call for freedom. The recent attack on Energy Installations was red faced many in washington and the kingdom we will tell you also. In ukraine a story beginning to be revealed for a very long time. Seemed wrong. To me. To shape out. And engage. The trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart. Just to look for common ground. What holds an inch to you so you can. Put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president and she. Want. You to go right to the press thats what before 3 in the morning cant be good. Im interested always in the waters of my. Question. This is a story about what happens austria stray bullets kills a young girl in the streets. What happens to her family and daughters in florida you know the mother daughter is very serious and terry it really messes with your head what happens to the community the public was screaming for a scapegoat the Police Needed a scapegoat so why not choose a 19 year old black kid with a criminal record who better to pin this on than him and what happens of course the. Shock shock is far society we feel. We dont know still sure this is true. And of this trial unfortunately you. Will still not know what childress. Says being investigated over claims it gave manipulated data to the world antidoping watchdog casting doubt over the countrys participation in next years olympics. Its only complied with all regulations. Say highly likely were not sure the u. K. Follows washington to lead saying theres a high degree of probability that iran has attacked Saudi Oil Facilities but the british. Stressing he is ready to join a u. S. Military effort in the gulf region if needed. And u. S.
