Fighting the misinformation campaign
During the conversation, Murray details his first impressions of Venezuela and
announces the launch of a new media project. Working with a local Venezuelan
crew, the initiative aims to provide international audiences with an authentic
perspective on the country while directly challenging the prevailing
misinformation campaigns.

The interview concludes with a deep dive into the international efforts to
discredit Chavismo following the Jan. 3 US military attacks on Venezuela. These
attacks resulted in the assassination of approximately 120 people - including 32
Cuban fighters - and the kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro and Deputy Cilia
Flores.
