‘De cara al mundo’: international analysis on Onda Madrid
‘De cara al mundo’, the Onda Madrid programme directed and presented by Javier Fernández Arribas, director of Atalayar, analyses current affairs around the world on a weekly basis.
In the United States, Kamala Harris is now officially the Democratic Party's candidate for the presidential elections in November.
A National Convention has closed in Chicago where the Democrats have used all the audiovisual means at their disposal, with the intervention of well-known film and music personalities and with a key demonstration of unity around the candidate.
The spectacle has been effective, exciting and impressive in the morale and attitude of the Democrats, while a disoriented Donald Trump did not succeed in social networks with the most disqualifying insult against Kamala Harris.
Now, the candidates will have to launch their proposals to be able to get the votes they need.
On the Middle East crisis, Kamala Harris wanted to make it clear that she will always support Israel's right and ability to defend itself. But she believes that the time has come for a ceasefire in Gaza.
On the other hand, the Venezuelan Chavista dictatorship's electoral pantomime has culminated in the Supreme Court's long-awaited decision to endorse Nicolás Maduro's electoral fraud. Presided over by chavista militant Caryslia Rodríguez since January, the court's decision represents Chavism's clinging to power despite losing the elections. The US announces sanctions for some 60 Chavista leaders and several Latin American governments reject this decision and demand the publication of the electoral records.
In addition, the war in Ukraine continues. Ukrainian army units make another incursion into Russian territory after two weeks in the Kursk region, controlling more than 1,200 square kilometres. For their part, the Russians have intensified their offensive in the Donbas.
We will tell you the experience of what is happening in Kursk where correspondent María Senovilla has been in the last few hours. We will also have the contribution of the expert international analyst Lucas Martín.
As every day, the discussion will be led by Atalayar's regular contributors, Claudia Luna, Mexican journalist and writer, and Pedro González, journalist and founder of Euronews, coordinated by Javier Fernández Arribas. They will talk about the candidacy of Kamala Harris for the Democratic Party in the US presidential elections, electoral fraud in Venezuela, the war in Ukraine and instability in the Sahel.
‘De cara al mundo’, Friday 23 August from 22:05 to 23:00.
