‘De cara al mundo’, the Onda Madrid programme directed and presented by Javier Fernández Arribas, director of Atalayar, provides weekly analysis of world news.

The European Union (EU) agrees on a loan to Ukraine with joint debt after the Russian assets plan fails. The frozen funds will be the final guarantee for a loan backed by the EU budget margin.

Journalist and correspondent María Senovilla will explain the situation of the conflict in Ukraine on ‘De cara al mundo’. 

Meanwhile, the President of the European Commission (EC), Ursula von der Leyen, said on Friday that EU countries need ‘a few more weeks’ and that they have only ‘slightly postponed’ the signing of the association agreement with Mercosur until January.

On the other hand, US President Donald Trump insisted on Thursday that he does not need congressional authorisation to order bombings against drug trafficking interests located in Venezuelan territory, although he admitted that he would not mind sharing prior information with the legislature.

In addition, Democrats in the US House of Representatives shared five new photographs on Thursday related to the case of paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, featuring philosopher Noam Chomsky and magnate Bill Gates, as well as a screenshot of a conversation about the apparent trafficking of women who were victims of the paedophile.

Expert international analyst Lucas Martín will offer the most relevant insights.

As every day, the discussion will feature Atalayar's regular contributors: Claudia Luna, Mexican journalist and writer, and Pedro González, journalist and founder of Euronews, coordinated by Javier Fernández Arribas. The debate will focus on the crisis between the United States and Venezuela, the war in Ukraine and the role of the EU, and the EU-Mercosur negotiations.

‘De cara al mundo’, Friday 19 December, from 10.05 p.m. to 11 p.m.
