María Corina Machado urges teachers to unite for a “free” and transformed Venezuela

Anti-Chavista leader María Corina Machado called on teachers this Saturday to organize for a “free” Venezuela, which she assured “is coming soon.” In this future, she emphasized, teachers will be the “protagonists” in building the “best public education system in the world.”

“Venezuela needs you, firm, determined, organized, planting hope and confidence in your classrooms and communities. In this new Venezuela that is emerging, teachers will be the backbone of society, well-trained, well-paid, and with the social security they deserve,” Machado said in an audio message shared on social media.

The former congresswoman, who claims to be “in hiding” within the country due to fears for her “life” and “freedom,” stated that educators “represent the great hope for the profound change Venezuela urgently needs.”

“You, the teachers, have defended our children and youth during these dark years of lies and violence, protecting them from a systematic attack by a regime that sought to rewrite our history, destroy our symbols, and invert our values,” she added.

Despite “starvation wages,” these professionals have “remained at the forefront of this struggle with infinite dedication and commitment,” she said.

“I know that many of you have spent your own money to bring materials to your classrooms, or even shared your food with your students. You have witnessed the collapse of our educational infrastructure, how our children attend school without adequate food or clothing, and without the basic tools necessary for their education,” Machado remarked.

Machado expressed her “deep admiration and affection” for teachers, emphasizing that Venezuela “needs them organized and active” during this “decisive moment.”

Erik Prince Backs Ecuador’s Daniel Noboa in Fight Against Crime and “Narcoterrorism”

Erik Prince, the founder of the private security firm Blackwater (now called Academi), expressed his support for Daniel Noboa, the president and re-election candidate in Ecuador, and stated that he hopes to continue working together in the fight against crime.

“I hope Ecuador chooses law and order. We are here to help, to combat gangs, and to provide the tools for the government to restore law and order, peace, and prosperity,” said the former U.S. military member, who arrived in Guayaquil to participate in an operation alongside the Ministers of the Interior, John Reimberg, and Defense, Gian Carlo Loffredo.

Prince did not hold back in his criticism of left-wing governments, such as Venezuela, which he described as a “narco-state with mass drug processing,” while also linking the party Revolución Ciudadana, of which the Correista Luisa González is a member (and who faces Noboa in the second electoral round), as an “ally of Nicolás Maduro.”

Minister Loffredo had already announced on Tuesday that a team from Prince would arrive in the country in the coming days to provide “advisory and training” to security forces, as part of the “strategic alliance” that President Noboa agreed upon with the Blackwater founder to fight against “narcoterrorism,” details of which have not been disclosed.

Cuban Supreme Court Confirms Successful Completion of Prisoner Release

The People’s Supreme Court of Cuba announced on Monday that it has successfully completed the release of 553 prisoners, a process first announced on January 14. Among those freed were political prisoners, including opposition figures José Daniel Ferrer and Félix Navarro.

The announcement came shortly after Washington, in the final days of the Biden administration, decided to remove Cuba from its list of state sponsors of terrorism.

While Havana has insisted that the releases were a unilateral and sovereign decision, the United States maintains that the measure was part of an agreement mediated by the Vatican. According to U.S. sources, many of those released were participants in the July 11, 2021, anti-government protests, the largest demonstrations Cuba has seen in decades.

Cuban authorities have not provided a list of the released prisoners or a timeline for the implementation of the measure, despite multiple requests for information from EFE.

Russia calls Zelensky’s Washington visit a “complete failure” after altercation with Trump

Russia stated on Saturday that Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to Washington was a “complete failure” following the altercation with Donald Trump, accusing the Ukrainian leader of being “obsessed with continuing the war” with Moscow.

The visit “was a complete political and diplomatic failure of the Kiev regime,” said Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova in a statement. Zakharova accused Zelensky of being “incapable of demonstrating a sense of responsibility,” of “rejecting peace,” and of using “lies and manipulations to justify the continuation of hostilities and the reception of military and financial aid from the West.”

Zelensky’s visit to Washington on Friday turned into a verbal brawl before cameras worldwide, when his counterpart, Donald Trump, and Vice President J.D. Vance accused the Ukrainian leader of being ungrateful for U.S. aid and rejecting peace talks. Zelensky was prematurely escorted out of the White House without signing the agreement he had gone to Washington for, which involved giving up the exploitation of Ukraine’s mineral resources in exchange for security guarantees.

“With his excessively rude behavior during his visit to Washington, Zelensky confirmed that he is the most dangerous threat to the international community as an irresponsible warmonger,” Zakharova stated.

She also accused European leaders of “political weakness” and “baseness” for backing Zelensky after the “moral lesson” he received in Washington.
