本站添加: 2026-05-17

[00:00:13]Damn, it's not going to stay, is it?

[00:00:32]Ah, let's see if people will come in, shall we? That time too.

[00:00:40]Respect.

[00:01:01]Good morning. Hey everyone! This live stream is going to be a very quick, extremely short one. About an hour, maybe an hour and a half at most.

[00:01:18]Who is Melina Sag?

[00:01:21]That name sounds familiar to me.

[00:01:32]Oh yes. A total diva, man. She already messaged me, you know?

[00:01:46]I left her hanging, damn it.

[00:02:52]Oh my God.

[00:03:08]Guys, I can't believe it. Juan, you saved my life.

[00:03:50]I want to kill myself, guys. I want to kill myself. I want to kill myself. I want to kill myself. I want to kill myself. I can't believe I did that, guys.

[00:04:22]For God's sake, people. For God's sake, people. Hey girl, everything alright, Giovanete? Only today.

[00:05:27]Damn, if the invitation is still valid, you can contact me at this number. Oh my God, how embarrassing.

[00:06:03]How embarrassing. Someone sent a message saying, "Oh, I think you should be interviewed by the girl, by Melina Saad." And I said, "Man, that name isn't unfamiliar to me. Obviously it's not unfamiliar, right, Melina? Saad.

[00:06:17]I went to see, guys, I had left her on read on Instagram. She had invited me to be interviewed. She asked for my number. I never replied to her again. That was in March.

[00:06:26]I want to kill myself.

[00:06:35]Oh, oh, oh. I'm going to have a fit here, huh.

[00:06:41]I'm going to have a fit here, huh.

[00:06:45]Come on, guys. Is my speech delayed in relation to my mouth or is it just me? I'm going to have a fit here, huh, guys. How embarrassing.

[00:07:09]How embarrassing. It's that someone sent this: "Ah, I think you should be interviewed by the girl, by Melina Saad." And I said, man, that name isn't unfamiliar to me. Obviously it's not unfamiliar, right? Saad isn't delayed, right?

[00:07:24]Okay. So it's just me. Great.

[00:07:26]Guys, let's speed things up because today is going to be a busy day here... I'm the one who teaches, but otherwise we'd run out of content. So, running out of content is n't an option, right? Let's start with a channel.

[00:07:40]Let's go.

[00:07:42]Okay, I'm already talking here without, without, for those who don't know me, hi, I'm Martina Giovanete, a graduate in international relations.

[00:08:02]Guess what I came to do today?

[00:08:05]Guess, guys? Something I rarely do on this channel, rarely, right? First, put on makeup, and second, and second... Wait a minute, I have to fix this, I adjusted the camera.

[00:08:28]Okay.

[00:08:40]What's the thing I do most on this channel, guys?

[00:08:47]Amidst all this conflict, today we're going to [snoring] react to Pedro Darer. That's right, folks. That's right, you heard me.

[00:09:00]So, uh, Pedro, he released this video, what the United States' exit from OPEC means for the United States, right? Uh, the United States, what the exit from the United Arab Emirates means? I'm going crazy, guys. Trump is driving me completely insane, completely. Crazy. Uh, it means for the United States, right? Uh, we're going to react to Pedro's video, we're going to make some considerations, and I'm going to do my makeup, as usual, right? Because I 'm a very multitasking person. I like to do more than one thing at a time.

[00:09:31]So, while we watch, let's go. Uh- huh. Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait. Let's make some considerations.

[00:09:56]Okay, let's go.

[00:09:59]Ready, ready, ready.

[00:10:02]My live stream, my Live Pix is ​​pinned, is n't it? I can't see the chat. If you want to say something during the live stream, Live Pix is available, okay?

[00:10:18]Available. Is that okay now? I think so, right?

[00:10:28]Okay.

[00:10:38]Let's go.

[00:10:45]In the Middle East now against Iran. The Emirates, amidst all this conflict in the Middle East now against Iran, the United Arab Emirates decided to officially leave UPEC. Many people saw this news, and many of you probably don't know what that means in practice. And here we're going to talk about precisely why this is good for the United States in the short term, but in the long term it could cost them their hegemony. Hey everyone, this is Darer speaking, and this video is another one of those additions to the map videos we already make, okay? Remember that this won't replace the map videos we've been making, okay? So there's no need to panic like you did in the last video.

[00:11:29]Shall we get into this subject? So leave a like because it helps immensely. I'm really counting on your help. So, have you already liked it? Have you already liked it here?

[00:11:38]Oh, Martino, but Pedro asked for a like. I'm a copycat. Like it here too. And you guys in the live stream. Whoever is in the live stream, don't like it, you'll lose all your eyelashes, all your eyelashes will fall off. So, be careful.

[00:11:55]Let's go to the video.

[00:11:57]Wow, I forgot there's no map after this part. Even I'm out of practice.

[00:12:01][laughs] Anyway, let's go. Well, on the 28th of... In April, the United Arab Emirates officially announced they would leave OPEC, and this ended up happening on May 1st. Damn, they used a long weekend to do something like that.

[00:12:16]So, at the same time, this year, look, it's Trump invading Venezuela on New Year's Day, it's us leaving OPEC on a holiday. It's Corpus Christi. Trump is going to invade Greenland. You can get ready, okay? Because every Sunday night, a holiday, I'm choosing to do these shenanigans, this nonsense, okay?

[00:12:38]You see this video, they're already out of OPEC. Let's understand now what this means in terms of consequences, especially for the United States. We've already talked in other videos about how this whole conflict can change the power structures in that region. And there's an extra F to saying "leave." Look, guys, look, I put the Live Pix wrong for you.

[00:13:03]Oh, wait a minute. So, now it's going to work, now it's going to work.

[00:13:30]The video volume is low. Let me increase it a little.

[00:13:39]Okay.

[00:13:43]I increased it here, guys. Let's see if it's good now. And let me know.

[00:13:48]Live Pix corrected. Okay. The United Arab Emirates leaving OPEC can be considered a symptom, a result of all this, that is, the change can't, it can't. Oh, guys, these international organizations are very important while they are useful. From the moment the state no longer sees a point in continuing in that organization, it will leave that organization without thinking twice, okay? Ah, it's not like the family group where you're like, "Oh, but Aunt Neusa will be upset?" No. OPEC isn't like that, right? People are there because they're defending their interests, but from the moment that no longer makes sense for the country, well, it's leaving. It's already happening.

[00:14:31]Is it? I don't know. It's too much to say.

[00:14:33]Let's find out.

[00:14:34]First, let's explain to you three characters, three agents that we'll have to mention in this video so you understand better. First of all, what is OPEC? OPEC is the The organization of oil exporting countries, and it works. I always thought PEP was such a funny name. PEP, oh PEP. PEP PEP PEP PEP PEP PEP PEP.

[00:15:01]Literally like a cartel. It's not like a Mexican cartel with drug trafficking, with those things, nothing like that. But it 's still a cartel. This cartel is formed by cartel members, people, it's the same thing as lobbying. It's a place where businessmen are often linked to states, right? Most of the time linked. Yes, lobbying has to be linked to the state, right?

[00:15:24]But anyway, they make deals to benefit the families of, for example, oil plants or refineries, anyway. So, oil plants, right, extraction companies or refineries.

[00:15:40]So, OPEC serves exactly to keep this dialogue between countries and private companies happening, both from country to country and from private company to country, right? Half private to half public, and to keep the price of oil competitive, to balance the interests of the State with the interests of private enterprise, all this countries. that control the amount of oil that enters the market. If OPEC decides to reduce its production, the price of oil increases. OPEC. That's what happened in the 70s, when we had, you know, the oil crisis. The oil crisis was because the OPEC countries decided to punish the United States for helping Israel, you know, in the invasion of Syria, Egypt, and so on. Uh, and then the weight of the price of oil quadrupled, and this ended up generating the crisis that started, you know, years later, the petrodollar, which I think is one of the topics that Pedro will bring up here. If they decide to increase their production, the price of oil falls. In other words, the demand for oil naturally exists. What OPEC does is control the amount of supply and consequently the prices of barrels of oil. Welcome to capitalism. Another acronym that we will mention here, Martin, so you are telling me that oil could be cheaper if they wanted to. Yes, that's what I'm saying. But I'm also saying that oil is a finite energy source, right? These countries are very aware of that. So, whatever they can do, first, make money, right? And second, uh, prevent the refineries, the... uh, I'm not very good with words today, man, damn. Uh, prevent the oil reserves from drying up, from becoming scarce, right? Anyway, uh, they're going to do that too, okay? So it's all a big mess.

[00:17:44]It's the GCC, which is the Gulf Cooperation Council. It's a political, economic, and military alliance between the Gulf monarchies, right, and the United Arab Emirates included. They also have their monarchs there. And the GCC was created in 1981, in response to the Iraqi invasion of Iran. And the GCC's objective was very simple. Let's all unite here, all the Gulf monarchies, to defend ourselves together, you know? Defend each other whenever necessary. It's basically the power....of friendship. Yes. And lastly, the cherry on top, the star of the show, the petrodollar. Perhaps many of you still don't know, but a long time ago, currencies, especially the dollar, were all backed by gold.

[00:18:37]Which means that paper money didn't have value in itself. It was backed, it was connected to the gold reserves that each country had in its coffers.

[00:18:49]And why did that make sense, folks?

[00:18:51]First, because gold is a limited resource, so it's something you can use as currency, right, as a form of exchange, in short. It can concentrate wealth here within capitalism, which is important. Anyway, all that. Uh, but more than that, gold is n't linked to the actions of any country. Having or not having gold depends much more on that country's ability to acquire that reserve than on whether one country does or doesn't. Starting with Bretton Woods, right? Uh, currencies began to be backed by the dollar. Uh, this system entered a crisis in the 70s. Today in Well, we have much more of a speculative capital base, anyway. But in Britton Woods, which is in '49 or '42, '41, I think it's '41, '42, '42, '44. Damn, trying to get all the dates right. Uh, at the end of World War II, that's when the economies that emerged victorious, or would emerge victorious, from World War II, that were winning, defined how the new system would work, at least in the capitalist bloc, right? After all, we know that after the end of World War II, we had the establishment of the doctrines that established the Cold War. But at that moment, it's only from '44 onwards that the dollar becomes the initial point of backing for currencies, okay? Until then it was gold. Uh, and that's why when we have crises, for example, the crisis in Iran, war, turmoil, Trump as Mr. President, uh, all this, what do we see increasing, folks? The price of gold. Why? Because the demand for gold always remains the same. The thing is, pardon me, the supply of gold always remains the same, but the demand increases.

[00:20:52]When does it increase? When you can't trust what should be the most reliable of all, which is the dollar, right? The dollar has the strength it has, it continues to be important to the international system, even though it's no longer the basis for currency fluctuations, because there's confidence in the dollar, right? Uh, when we have an unstable president, unstable politics, and a conflict that nobody knows where it's going, that confidence weakens, right? So, people start wanting to respond, right? To buy, uh, currencies, well, not currencies, but more reliable assets to invest their money in, and gold is one of them.

[00:21:34]However, in the 70s, I gave the class now, okay? You noticed, right, that I went, oh, from the United States. They changed that. Then- President of the United States, Richard Nixon, in 1971, removed the gold standard and soon after, in 1974, he made a deal with Saudi Arabia.

[00:21:55]The agreement was basically this: the Saudis and their Gulf friends, their cronies over there, would start selling oil exclusively in dollars. In exchange, the United States would guarantee their security and provide them with military defense. That was the Petrodollar. And since the entire planet constantly needed dollars, now they had to have them, so you saw, right, Israel wanting to grow, because that's why this happened, okay? In '72 we have a conflict between Israel and, if I'm not mistaken, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Egypt, okay? In this conflict, the United States intervened after Israel for one of the first times in the international system, at least openly, right? They had already made investments since the end of World War II, but openly against these countries. It's the first time. And then these countries saw, they put a In the United States, people are terrified, they say, "Oh, I'm going to raise the price of oil." That's what happens. The price of oil quadruples. And the United States makes this agreement that, like, even though I know I'm in charge in Israel, even if Israel goes crazy and comes after you, right? Remember that we were also in the middle of the Cold War, the invasion of Afghanistan was knocking on the door, right? Things were tense, Soviet Union, United States. So, the United States proposes to be the one that will protect the countries in that region, especially Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, from any military threat they might face. And in exchange, they would only buy and sell oil in dollars, right? Not only to the countries in that region, but to the whole world. And this means that, folks, if there's one thing that everyone in the international system in globalization depends on, it's the oil that comes from... Middle East, right? It's no coincidence that we saw the whole crisis that happened when the Iran war broke out and nobody knew exactly what was going to happen.

[00:24:04]When everyone needs to buy at least a large part of their oil in dollars, the dollar ends up becoming, firstly, a very stable currency because it's used for many international transactions simultaneously. Secondly, it's a necessary currency in these countries' reserves. If these countries want to buy oil, they need to express their reserves in dollars, which makes the currency even more stable and these countries even more dependent on the dollar. They built up dollar reserves to be able to buy oil. In other words, it ended up creating an infinite and artificial demand on top of their currency. The world now needed gigantic dollar reserves if they wanted to move economically anywhere.

[00:24:48]What was previously backed by gold is now backed purely by confidence, you understand? But now the question I ask is, what happens when that confidence no longer exists? What happens when a war breaks out in the middle of all this, a conflict that, I think, is more than that, right?

[00:25:06]Because, like, The United States, come on, what an example of confidence they're giving, because they spent, wait a minute.

[00:25:44]Okay. Just more or less the same. No.

[00:25:49]Okay, now yes.

[00:25:52]Because, folks, the United States, what an example of confidence they're giving, because they spent, uh, two whole years at war.

[00:26:04]Wait a minute, I know I have to stop doing this, stopping to do makeup, folks, but it's necessary, otherwise I can't do either.

[00:26:35]Okay. Uh, I'll start my speech again. What example of confidence is this that the United States is giving?

[00:26:43]If they spent two whole years supporting Ukraine in a war against Russia. A war that Ukraine wouldn't even have entered if it hadn't had the support of the United States to begin with. And now we have a president who receives Putin in [ __ ] Alaska.

[00:26:58]We have a president who threatens to leave NATO, yes, no, and who even threatens to invade territories belonging to NATO members.

[00:27:09]We have a president who has a very difficult time dialoguing, in doing Diplomacy, in negotiation.

[00:27:17]So, can you trust the currency of that country with a former president?

[00:27:22]I don't trust it, right?

[00:27:24]Israel, the United States went after Iran, which ended up creating a retaliation where the Iranians started attacking everything related to the United States in that region, from military bases to infrastructure that is vital to the economic interests of the United States. One of the countries that was most targeted was the United Arab Emirates, with about 83% of the Iranian attacks directed at them.

[00:27:52]The Emirates saw all its infrastructure, its image as a safe haven for investment, completely shattered. That entire perception of security was heavily affected.

[00:28:05]Well, what is this? Where is the mutual protection that we agreed to defend ourselves against? Where is this mutual protection with this state? Because, you know, the United States is there, it's present in the conflict, it may even be, right? But how many of the attacks were on US territory?

[00:28:24]Can you cite how many of the attacks were on US territory? So, uh, in this type of Conflict, uh, what is expected and demanded of countries that are at the center of the problem is very different from what the United States faces in this type of situation, right?

[00:28:50]If I stop to think about it, folks, the country that has been most involved in international conflicts, perhaps in the history of planet Earth, is the one that has had its territory attacked the least.

[00:29:03]If you take away that, with the exception of, I don't know, embassies, and, right? So, it's complicated, you understand? This comparison guaranteeing insurance.

[00:29:18]If you were that country, would you think that's enough? If I were the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, I wouldn't think so. Where's the charm? Before all this happened, the United Arab Emirates had a plan to produce 5 million barrels per day by 2027.

[00:29:37]But given the circumstances now, they want to sell that now. They want to start production at this moment, or rather, when the Strait of Hormuz reopens, okay?

[00:29:48]It's still closed. But then the problem of UPEC comes in, because Look, Saudi Arabia is in charge of OPEC. They have the most influence in that organization. They determine how much oil each OPEC country will produce to enter the market, forcing production cuts in several countries, such as the United Arab Emirates. And obviously, with all this happening, they were going to revolt. "Damn, this isn't working.

[00:30:15]You didn't fulfill your part of the agreement. The United States didn't defend me. Nobody defended me. It was raining cats and dogs, the drone was going.

[00:30:21]Because, you know, in the end, it 's every man for himself.

[00:30:27]Every dog ​​licks its own dick, you understand? Ah, there's an agreement, there is in the end, man. One day yes, one day no. Now I have to fulfill my part of the agreement on oil production. Ah, I'm out of this [ __ ], you know."

[00:30:47]In short, the Emirates were getting beaten in this war. The Allies were ignoring them, and their oil production was being limited. Yeah, they were going to jump ship. Man, you're crazy, Rabibe, it's not worth it. [laughs] Okay, but what does this mean for the United States?

[00:31:02]The empire is over, so everything's gone to hell. The dollar is finished.

[00:31:06]No, actually now this was seen as a victory in Trump's eyes. I don't know if you know, but the orange guy has criticized Pep several times in the past and now he celebrated the Emirates leaving this cartel. The guy celebrated the fragmentation of his own allies, okay?

[00:31:24]Just so you know. to further improve relations. That's what happens. Trump, he 's a guy, you know, honestly, I read a lot of analysis, I study a lot about this, but for me it's very difficult to understand exactly what Trump wants with all this. That's perhaps my biggest question, my biggest doubt in the current situation, is like this: I understand where it's coming from, right? Where does this attitude of his come from? I don't understand motivation.

[00:31:53][snoring] I don't understand the motivation.

[00:31:54]I understand that he has a more isolationist policy. I understand that he has a more segregationist policy, mainly for the benefit of the United States in the international system and the segregation of its alliances. I understand all of that. I, for example, saw an analysis saying that maybe it would be better for Trump if he lost, but China also lost. If he loses, but Russia loses too.

[00:32:17]If he loses, but the rest of the international system loses too. For him, it's an advantage.

[00:32:23]I can't see why. It makes sense.

[00:32:26]I think that's perhaps one of the things that's been puzzling me the most lately while studying international relations; it's one of the things that bothers me because I really don't know the answer. I don't know, I don't know why, I can't say how, what the reason for this is. Well, maybe he believes that in the long run, a reconstruction of these alliances, you know, instead of, well, continuing with these existing alliances, creating new ones, and perhaps the way to do that is to destroy the old ones, but it really gets to me, you know, and the way he does it, he destroys many bridges, important bridges, you know?

[00:33:03]Finally, it gets to me a little. Dreams. Oh my god, I'm smart. It can certainly be seen as a short-term victory, but there are a few things to take into consideration. First, with the Emirates outside of OPEC, they will be able to produce as much oil as they want without any kind of limit.

[00:33:22]Consequently, if they manage to sell this oil when the Strait of Hormous reopens, it means that the price of oil will consequently fall. It's going to fall. PEP is going to have a problem with that, and more than that, right? Oh, this is going to generate a whole lot of sanctions. Finally, I'll get into that point. Well, they won't need to sell in dollars anymore, right?

[00:33:43]Not only will they no longer need to sell in dollars, but they will also not necessarily have to comply with some of the sanctions that OPEC applied. So, like, there are some countries that OPEC simply doesn't sell oil to, it sells a limited quantity. By leaving OPEC, they no longer have this limitation, which also lowers the price of oil for these countries and increases the possibility for some countries to have access to oil, something that is difficult, countries under sanctions, countries at war, and so on.

[00:34:03]You remember, right? Higher production, lower price, something the United States urgently needs, since the price of gasoline is incredibly high. And those guys are going to have midterm elections later this year. And this issue of high gasoline prices is very important when people go to vote. And remember, if the Democrats win this election, which is what seems likely, they could take Trump straight to impeachment, okay? That 's not impossible. But Dar, you just said that, oh, my take on this. Do you think the Democrats will win? I think. Do you think Trump will be impeached? No. I think it's much more likely he'll be removed from office due to health issues than impeached. At the same time, because of all the internal processes, both regarding the Supreme Court issue, I know it 's not impossible, but I think it's very difficult.

[00:34:52]Well, at least the process gets to the end, right? I think they might even file a lawsuit. I think it's very difficult for this process to go all the way to the end. Well, at the same time, I'm very skeptical about this whole thing of him being sidelined due to illness, because the importance of Trump's image as an almost immaculate figure is essential for the Republicans today and for the political strength of his allies. So, I don't know if that would happen either, you know? But I don't think he's going to be impeached.

[00:35:26]Tre do Jormus is closed. How is this going to be a good thing for Trump?

[00:35:30]That's exactly the point we need to take into consideration, because the drop in oil prices can only happen when this whole war is over and the Emirates are able to pass through the Strait of Hormus. And even then, maybe not even with the end of the war, okay?

[00:35:44]Iran has already stated that one of the points needed to end the conflict is the recognition of its authority in the Strait of Hormouse. And that also includes toll collection. And we don't even know how long this war will last. I think so, okay? My take on this, I think this is still a war that's been going on for months, okay?

[00:36:01]It will last a few months. I don't think it's going to be a war that lasts for years.

[00:36:06]I don't think so either. I already told you guys, right? I think it's over before the election.

[00:36:10]Well, she might live to be a year old, I do n't know. I think it's difficult, not impossible, but that's how it is. I don't think it'll be more than a year, you know? Wow, just imagine us talking like that, right? It's only been a year; fast forward 10 years and we'll still be talking about this.

[00:36:26]Let us pray that it is not so.

[00:36:27]But that's the thing, even if the war ends, Iran will continue, won't it? I don't think the war lasts that long. Well, folks, yes, the war ending means that the conflicts between the United States and Iran will end. It doesn't mean [snoring], right?

[00:36:41]We're always going to have conflicts in that region.

[00:36:43]We'll probably have new attacks eventually in a few years.

[00:36:46]This does not mean that this specific conflict cannot be resolved.

[00:36:50]Well, I think both sides will be heard and all demands will be met from both sides. No, because that's impossible, right? Well, what the United States wants directly affects what Iran wants, and vice versa. Well, anyway, it's complicated. Morgana, you're so cute. I'll leave you as the moderator. What do you think? Is it possible for me to do this here? I'll make you the chat moderator, in case someone sends inappropriate things. You're in almost the entire live stream.

[00:37:33]So, she was promoted to moderator, congratulations. They're charging a toll in that area of ​​the Strait of Hormus. And we don't know how long they're going to keep doing this.

[00:37:43]And the way things are going, with them closing and opening all the time, there's no telling when this will end, okay? Just a reminder that this idea of ​​them charging tolls doesn't exist.

[00:37:52]That doesn't mean that just because the strait is closed or open, like this issue of the Strait of Hormuz, it doesn't mean the conflict is over, and vice versa. Just because they resolved the hormone issue doesn't mean the conflict is over, and just because the conflict is over doesn't necessarily mean the hormone issue is 100% resolved, right? Most likely, we 'll see an resurgence of this conflict again before war breaks out. OK. And according to British analyses, in about 5 years, Iran could earn 500 billion in tolls alone. So, folks, we're talking about dollars, the word dollars, because it's an easy currency to understand.

[00:38:31]We understand its weight, its values, the conversion, you know, we know the importance of the dollar. But here we begin to enter the Trump nightmare. These tolls that countries are paying to be able to pass through the Strait of Hormous are being paid both in cryptocurrency and also in that little coin that's been pulling Trump's leg at night.

[00:38:51]Youan, why is this a problem for the United States?

[00:38:55]Oh, notice something. When a country makes a transfer in dollars to another country, it does so through the Swift system, which belongs to the United States and has nothing to do with Taylor Swift. Let's stop talking about this here, okay? I think we talked about this in a previous video.

[00:39:11]Make that joke. But if he makes an eman transfer, it's much more common for him to use the SIPS system, which belongs to China. And this is where we get to the biggest threat to the United States, which is precisely its hegemony in the region. Let 's make a hypothetical situation here: if the Emirates start producing oil like crazy and a whole bunch of ships start passing through the Strait of Hormous, it's very likely they'll have to pay these tolls. Guys, the hegemony of the United States has been threatened since around 2022 or 2023, okay?

[00:39:43]Long before that war. Well, in 2023, we had the Beijing agreement, which was an agreement to re-establish diplomatic and commercial relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia, believe it or not, I know, long before this war, right? So, and who mediated this agreement, judging by the name, the P15 agreement, you can probably guess, it was China itself.

[00:40:08]In the past, such an agreement would have been unimaginable in a terve.

[00:40:14]This time it was China that did it. So China has been assuming this hegemonic role in that region for quite some time now, or at least that of a very significant partner, competing with the United States, you understand?

[00:40:27]Eman. However, do you agree with me that this is not advantageous for the Emirates in the long term? So, in my view, I invite you to disagree with that and present your point of view as well. He can talk.

[00:40:38]In my view, knowing a bit about China and having already spoken with Chinese people in the field and heard their opinions on this, what I think might happen is the following agreement coming from the Chinese.

[00:40:50]Look, Emirates, I can talk to Iran about this toll thing, because it 's really annoying, isn't it? And I'll say more, instead of you starting to sell your oil in dollars, you can start selling it in One. That's it.

[00:41:06]I think that's possible, what Pedro said, especially this issue of perhaps mediating the relationship between Iran and other countries in that region after this conflict ends. I think that's very possible, as, you know, as I said here, China has done before, I don't know if it necessarily creates an obligation, but perhaps it creates an advantage, well, a competitive advantage in that environment, right? Well, I don't know if it's mandatory, especially since it's not very expensive from China, okay? But maybe there's an advantage, man, if you sell in one year, I can buy so much more oil from you and not from the other.

[00:42:02]It was a possibility. It 's not impossible, okay? In the midst of the war, China has already signed 24 cooperation agreements with the Emirates, and that also includes oil, okay? Because we need to understand one thing about China once and for all. They don't need to coerce or threaten you to achieve their goals.

[00:42:22]The moment an opportunity arises for them, they'll jump right in. My brother, you only need to look at the African continent. The United States and Europe maintained a neocolonialist approach for decades that subjugated African countries. China stepped in and offered a better alternative than what they had before. And today, the main partner of all of Africa is China. But going back to the Middle East, why might what the Emirates are doing mean the end of US hegemony in that region? Because precisely what the Emirates are doing could trigger a domino effect. If an agreement with China to sell its foreign oil becomes advantageous, other countries may want to follow suit.

[00:43:10]Other countries may leave OPEC and begin conducting their own negotiations. And that's what we're talking about: the end of the petrodollar. A currency that is backed by trust can literally lose its only basis again, I have a problem with this whole end thing, this I don't know what, this I don't know what. Because even when we're talking about something extremely natural and concrete within capitalism, which is the end of hegemonies, the hegemonic countries are still around, right? Well, maybe with the exception of the Kingdom of Genoa, we still have Holland, we still have England, right?

[00:43:47]So, I think the end of the petrodollar is very difficult. Now, I think the loss of influence is inevitable, right? It's something that, over time, will be widely disseminated in the international system, also because that's the trend, right? Along with the hegemony of the United States, its hegemonic elements will also fall, which doesn't mean they will cease to exist. That's the end, I think, but it's definitely losing its hegemony. sustenance and collapse in the region. The dollar is losing even more strength.

[00:44:21]And we've already talked about this. If an empire like the United States loses its strength in its currency, loses its economic power, it also loses its coercive power. He loses his ability to sanction other countries. That's why you often see a lot of geopolitical analysis saying that this war has the potential to permanently change the power dynamics of the region.

[00:44:46]We are literally watching history unfold before our very eyes. And that's pretty cool. Finally, I really hope you guys understood. It's very difficult for us to believe that things will go back to the way they were before, especially in the É region. No, I don't think so, because that's a region that tends to have very rapid, very abrupt, and very significant changes, you know? Well, as I told you, since the end of the Second World War and especially since the end of the Ottoman Empire in that region, which happened near the end of the First World War, we've had a number of very significant structural changes, you know? We see things reconfiguring themselves many times, but nothing is impossible, right? Nothing is impossible. Well, again, it wouldn't be like, " Oh, this has never happened before, it doesn't happen." It happens very often. In fact, the last significant change we've had is mainly regarding the issue of oil, right? That was perhaps the beginning of the 2000s, right? With the rise of China and everything else, and the whole question of how significant it has become to the international system, it 's something that happens relatively frequently.

[00:46:21]So it's not rocket science either. In short, but with Pedro, this time I think I agreed much more with Pedro's analysis. Yes, you know that from one day to the next I've been having, we've been having some disagreements, but I think that this time Pedro and I agree on many points. I want to know what you guys think down here, okay? Whether you agree with me and Pedro, or disagree, that's fine too.

Please subscribe and like this video. Oh, and there are several links below for more things. I offer private lessons, and there's a lot of other things. Come be my private tutor, man. That's cool, that's awesome.

[00:47:13]See you in the next video. A kiss and goodbye. Bye, bye.

[00:47:19]Ui. Let 's move on to the next one. Hey guys, today I'm going to react to a channel that you've been asking me to react to all the time, okay? A lot.

[00:47:31]You guys always ask me to react to this channel. I'll be completely honest, I didn't know about him, okay? But thanks to your request, uh, I went ahead with it, right? I went looking for it, I went to find out. Eh, and today we're going to react to the channel, tanã parabólica, parabólica, okay? Yeah, it was a channel that you guys recommended to me a lot. Well, and I think it's interesting for us to mention that he makes videos about current events, and I really liked his format, actually.

[00:48:20]So, I took a look, liked it, and today we're going to react to the satellite channel, okay? Well, today, since we already talked about Iran this week with Pedro Darer, I wanted to react to this one here: " And this week something will happen" and about Xin Xin Ping, I was almost going to get his name wrong. Xijin Ping. It could be for you, it could be for me, it could be for me, it could be for you. Okay, folks, so without further ado, for those who don't know me, hi, I'm Martina Giovanete, I have a degree in international relations, and today we're going to react to the Parabólica channel, the video Shei and Trump, the meeting of the decade: Iran, Taiwan, and Italifas. Come on, let's go, let's go.

[00:49:05]And this week the meeting of the decade will take place. Donald Trump is going to Beijing on Wednesday, he will meet with Xi Jinping and they will have a meeting on Thursday and Friday. And why am I calling this the meeting of the decade?

[00:49:17]They have met before, but that's because the current situation, the current international context, involves Taiwan, involves Iran, involves Russia.

[00:49:26]So, in other words, there are two major wars happening right now, and perhaps these are the three most important pressure points for international relations today, right? Russia, which I need to mention without saying anything, uh, Iran, right, with everything that's going on. And Taiwan, after all, whether we like it or not, folks, even though it's perhaps quieter than other conflicts, the issue of, uh, microchips, semiconductors, remains one of the main points for the evolution and development of countries in the international system and in the technological race.

[00:50:01]So, it's not something we can let slip through our fingers, right?

[00:50:08]Let's go.

[00:50:08]It involves artificial intelligence, a lot of things, it's technology, a lot of things. And they need to reach some agreements. I'm going to explain to you today what these agreements are that they intend to reach. Donald Trump is putting a lot of pressure on Xi Jinping, including regarding Iran. And Xi Jinping is putting pressure on Donald Trump regarding Taiwan, and there's Russia as well. Let's talk about this. So I'm asking for a like from you guys. If you could give this a like, I would be very grateful.

[00:50:38]Let's go, then. So it's going to happen soon, as I told you, it was planned a long time ago. They've already had some, the secretaries of state and representatives from the United States, both from the United States and the ministers from China, have already had pre-meetings. We brought all this here, they're going to meet. Donald Trump is leaving on Wednesday, and we'll have meetings on Thursday and Friday. So let's take this one step at a time.

[00:51:04]What are the main points?

[00:51:06]First, a trade war. This concept of trade war is a concept widely used by the Western press, by the press in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the hegemonic Brazilian press, which is why we hear about trade wars. And the ones who are taking the blame for this, who are putting on this label of trade war, are the United States. China does not claim to be in a trade war. We're going to understand that this trade war exists because of the people going to China, right? The United States and a speck of dust on Xi Jinping's shoe are the same thing, understand? I'm just kidding.

[00:51:39]No, but China understands that the United States has its issues with it, right? That's because, well, today China's position and the relationship they have is crucial for the survival of the United States in the international system, right, for the survival of its hegemony, for the establishment of its hegemony. Well, however, that's not true for China. China today has a presence in the international system that is independent of the United States, which has its own very well-established base. You could even argue that about the United States before Donald Trump's administration as well.

[00:52:19]In the end, he managed to eliminate all his major threats, as we discussed in Pedro's video, which we also reacted to this week. Well, the whole issue of, uh, uh, now, right, going after the PEP, anyway, uh, it's an issue that, man, greatly weakens, right, the main and most strategic partnerships of the United States and ends up compromising its, uh, its function, right, and its positioning in the international system, something that, for example, China is not willing to play, you understand? It doesn't play that role; on the contrary, it's increasingly establishing strategic relationships and becoming more and more central to the international system.

[00:53:03]Read this to me.

[00:53:04]Oops.

[00:53:04]Donald Trump is starting this trade war because of Chinese growth.

[00:53:12]Donald Trump hopes to get China to agree to some fundamental agreements.

[00:53:19]So, for example, the purchase, right, and related to the purchase of Boeing aircraft, which China was already doing, but that this continues and that they buy even more, that they buy, for example, agricultural products from the United States and energy from the United States as well. When talking about energy, they're talking about oil in the United States and agriculture.

[00:53:43]So Donald Trump, accompanied by advisors, is always very committed to getting China to accept offers from the United States to buy products, to balance the trade balance. On the other hand, China also expects the United States to buy its products. The United States is even waiting for China—and they're in a truce process, right—regarding Donald Trump's tariff hikes, right? You all remember how tough last year was, right? That was the topic we talked about most, right?

[00:54:20]One of them, right? After Donald Trump's tariff announcement, especially the attacks on China, 50%, you remember that the tariffs on China reached over 100% on the United States side and China doubled down. Oh, you guys are doing 100%. I don't remember the exact numbers, but they were over 100%.

[00:54:38]I think it reached 150, maybe 140, something like that. Yeah, it was crazy. And I remember, guys, that this was treated like the end of the world, right? Oh no, so what are we going to do now?

[00:54:53]You guys didn't remember there were fees, did you? You shameless people. You guys are being dramatic, that's what you are.

[00:54:59]110 United States, 120, 150, do you remember that? It was something crazy, something so unbelievable. And then you had a crisis in both countries because of that. In China, you even saw companies laying off workers because of tariffs and the difficulty of exporting to the United States. It affected everyone, and China continued to argue that multilateral relations were more important, that this would harm China, but it would also harm the United States and any other country.

[00:55:24]Yeah.

[00:55:25]Finally, this "faço" tariff still exists.

[00:55:27]They are in a truce. So, that's why this meeting is so important. Well, the United States is waiting, they expect that China, for example, in this concept of tariffs, will extend the agreements related to rare earths and critical minerals from China, since China is the country that has the most rare earths and critical minerals. And it's different from Brazil, for example, where we've been talking about this quite a bit. Brazil is the second country with the most, but China, well, it exploits them, right? She properly explores these crystal minerals and rare earth elements.

[00:56:03]But the United States needs it, right?

[00:56:06]That's why this harassment is happening around the world, we know, Greenland, Canada, Brazil, China, so the United States needs it. So they wait, hoping that China will extend it. China has not commented on this in that regard. China, folks, China is a major issue for the United States.

[00:56:22]Of course, this issue of tariffs, as he pointed out, is important internally, right? China, it had its difficulties with that in the beginning, right? Well, as I told you, China has a great capacity, through its internal partnerships, to recover in the long term. But more than that, folks, China has a problem: peace. There is a lack of peace. Ah, Martina, but China isn't at war, no, but it has a thorn in its side, which is the United States 24 hours a day, especially when it comes to Taiwan, right? Well, China hasn't gotten involved in this Iran issue, despite being a major trading partner, because it was like, "Look, I'm not going to interfere in Venezuela, I'm not going to interfere in Iran, so the United States will leave me alone so I can deal with my Taiwan issue quietly here in my corner, right?"

[00:57:10]So, uh, I think there's a lot to this issue of China asking for peace in exchange for, you know, these negotiations that it conducts with the United States.

[00:57:22]But it will certainly happen. I do n't think China is going to stop and say, "No, we don't want this anymore."

[00:57:27]Donald Trump isn't going there for nothing, you know? And that's a crucial point.

[00:57:31]You know when we say, "What's up?" China has nuclear weapons, okay? But when we talk about Iran, what is Iran's main nuclear weapon? It is the Strait of Ormoço. It caused a global collapse. This strait of Ormoço.

[00:57:43]Which one is from China? One of the things that China possesses is not just nuclear weapons, but important non- nuclear weapons, but rare earth elements are among them. Other topics we could discuss include China's Belt and Road Initiative and its relationship with other countries. China's influence is defined by the amount of energy it exports and imports to other countries, and by the diplomatic and economic relationships it has established with the international system—a relationship of near-dependency, but not an imperialist one, a dependence based on agreements. Folks, if Brazil stops doing business with China, we're screwed, just like much of the Global South. And that's an advantage that China has, for example, in a time of crisis, like the one we're experiencing in the Middle East, right? Well, to be the great mediator of this whole thing, to be the country that everyone can turn to and trust, right?

[00:58:39]Because he has a good relationship with most of them. Ten has been a major trading partner of several countries over the past 20 years, including, for example, Brazil. The United States needs rare earth elements for the production of anything related to technology in the United States, both from a civilian and a military standpoint.

[00:58:57]It's OK? So, the United States hopes that there will be an extension of this truce with regard to the air lands. So, they need it. It's not just Donald Trump who goes there to exert pressure. But there are also issues where there is pressure.

[00:59:11]Donald Trump has been putting pressure on China, mainly from the point of view of the two major wars that are happening, which, of course, are more than enough, right? But the two major wars happening in the world are between Russia and Iran, okay? Donald Trump has been pressuring China to reduce its trade and military partnerships with Russia, which is going to be very difficult, right?

[00:59:34]He's not going to arrive at a two-day meeting, and then China will suddenly say, "No, then we no longer have relations with Russia; we prefer to maintain relations with the United States." Just to clarify, China represents a lot of countries at this meeting, okay?

[00:59:47]China isn't there just for itself. It's certainly because of her, but if you stop to think about it, she's Brazil's biggest trading partner. She's not going to jeopardize everything for all the other countries.

[00:59:56]Exactly. Exactly.

[00:59:57]But mainly the IR, because she has, I, I think that when he says that China is representing several countries there, I agree a lot, because China, whether it likes it or not, is a country of the global south, right, folks? We can't forget that. It's a country that emerged from this non-alignment with the major powers during the Cold War. It's a country that emerged from a situation that was almost peasant-like, you know, at the beginning of the 20th century. And it is a country that has this very well- established relationship with the rest of the Global South.

[01:00:31]So, China, unlike, for example, perhaps Russia or Europe, is not willing to make agreements that harm the rest of the Global South, just to benefit itself or the United States. She has absolutely no interest in that, because she would lose more than she would gain, because her business partnerships, as I said and as, you know, uh, was demonstrated here to us, uh, they are very important, right? In that regard, I think it's very important to highlight this, because China is the largest importer of Iranian oil, and we're experiencing this oil crisis right now.

[01:01:08]Yes, Donald Trump is indeed accusing China of financially financing Iran, and it's thanks to China that it has survived until now. We've said many times that what's happening in Iran today... Yes, folks. That's right, that's true. Iran needs money to be able to continue the war. Part of the money he earns comes from China. And Europe is financing Russia in the war in Ukraine because Europe is still buying gas from Russia to this day, you understand? Ah, Martina, but it decreased, decreased, and still, I don't know, like, 15% of the gas that Europe buys comes from Russia. So, Russia, so Europe is funding Russia in this war in Ukraine, you understand? It's the same thing.

[01:01:51]One of its main focuses, from the United States' point of view, is to try to destabilize China.

[01:01:58]So, uh, they're going to keep pushing. Well, this must be on the agenda somehow, trying to undermine the relationship between Xi Jinping and Tehran, Beijing and Tehran, uh, Beijing and Moscow. They will try.

[01:02:16]But China also has an ace up its sleeve.

[01:02:18]What other card do you have up your sleeve? It's Taiwan. Wait a minute, are you guys pressing us? Did you mention Taiwan again? No, but I was going to talk about Brick, you know why?

[01:02:25]Because you've noticed that all these elements are directly linked to BRICS, the trade relationship, and the presence of Iran and Russia in the discussion, right? Well, China, in addition to a bilateral diplomatic commitment with these countries, also has a multilateral commitment. Well, it's a matter of trying to find a middle ground, because even though, of course, she has this meeting, the objective is to dialogue with the United States, she can't let her economic partnerships fall apart because of an agreement with the United States, because that wouldn't make sense, right? right? But I think that especially when we're talking about Russia and Iran, the commitment is greater because it's not just bilateral, it's also multilateral.

[01:03:18]In order to reduce relations with Iran, which is at war with you, and which the United States is losing from a political standpoint, and not being able to, today I would even say militarily, because they are not succeeding, they haven't achieved what they wanted. So, you want us to reduce relations or pressure Iran to open the Strait of Hormus? China has been doing this since the beginning of this war.

[01:03:39]Since Iran closed Street Ormuso, Streit has not reopened. One of the ways Iran found a way to get ships to China through, you know?

[01:03:47]Yeah, but Donald Trump is impressed, you know. And China is pressuring Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormouse.

[01:03:54]Yes.

[01:03:54]Now there's Taiwan.

[01:03:56]Because, again, it's that thing, okay?

[01:03:58]China, the ships may be passing through, but what about their allies and the people who produce the raw materials for the products they manufacture? Because, whether we like it or not, when gasoline is more expensive in Brazil, the raw materials we send to the rest of the world also become more expensive. And that presents a problem for those countries, you understand?

[01:04:24]So it's a question, okay? Taiwan.

[01:04:26]Wow, it just started out of nowhere, a mountain range began. Here I go, let's go. What has China been saying?

[01:04:36]I recently brought up a video showing that one of the major issues China wants to bring to this meeting—and I think the United States doesn't want to bring it up because they don't want to be pressured—is related to Taiwan. The United States is the largest supplier of weapons to Taiwan and does this as a way to try to destabilize China.

[01:04:54]Last week I also brought to your attention that we had the Philippines, the United States, Canada, and Japan, which shouldn't have done anything. The United States shouldn't do it either. They conducted military exercises near the South China Sea, right, which is the South China Sea, they did that. So there's a lot of tension related to this, recently, right?

[01:05:14]How does it work? China will, if Donald Trump wants to exert pressure from one side, China will exert pressure from the other. What kind of relationship do you have with Taiwan?

[01:05:22]Yeah. And to wrap things up one last time, because remember, folks, China's very recognition of Taiwan as a sovereign state is already a huge offense to China, right? But uh, uh, you don't even need to acknowledge it, you don't even need to acknowledge that you have relationships, like how can you have relationships with a state that doesn't exist, right? With a state whose very existence puts my sovereignty and territorial integrity at risk, right? So, it's complicated. A major concern for US big tech companies is the technology produced in China, especially regarding artificial intelligence.

[01:06:02]Last year was the year before last, right, when everyone was held hostage, for example, by artificial technology, by artificial intelligence coming from the United States. When I say hostage, I mean that everyone was only using what came from the United States. And yes.

[01:06:16]And China played its trump card, out of nowhere it appears for everyone to see, I made a video about it here, the Deep Seek.

[01:06:22]Yes, Chinese artificial intelligence that was coming from there, which was produced much more cheaply, right? Do you remember that there was even the issue of whether they could use chips—I don't remember if that's exactly what they said— but Nvidia chips, much weaker Nvidia chips, so they could do it. This caused a stir in the world, and China, from then on, saw an absurd growth in technology and artificial intelligence. And the United States views this with great concern, because it's yet another market they have to compete with China for. So, the advisors connected to Big Tech who are there with Donald Trump are trying to devise a communication channel, right, between the two countries in order to produce technology, artificial intelligence. What kind of channel would that be? It wasn't very specific to us, but it would be some question about transparency, about technology transfer, perhaps, which is something we discuss quite a bit here, right? Well, for these countries, especially when you're in the thick of the struggle to develop technology, technology transfer is very important. So, uh, I'll teach you a little bit, you teach me a little bit. This helps a lot, you know, in the evolution of technologies and it can be born, you know, from diplomatic agreements like this, data processing, in short, you have several areas that the two countries need to discuss. No, we don't know if all of this is just two days of negotiations, which is no small thing. It's the whole day, so on Thursday and Friday, the whole day Donald Trump was talking with Xi Jinping. But that's not all. So, who did Donald Trump bring with him? Will he bring businesspeople?

[01:08:03]Will he bring them too? Advisor, how do these negotiations work?

[01:08:08]Everyone's in the same space, right? Well, there's the first one, which the diplomatic team usually arrives at first. So, the diplomatic team arrives beforehand, they talk on the phone, they call each other, to define the agenda, to define what can and cannot be said, to define what the role of the press will be, and so on. Beauty? So they 're in the same room, the two heads of state, I don't know, 8 or 9 hours a day for two days. So that makes 16 to 18 hours of discussion, if not more, right? But that's usually how it is. The thing is, folks, deals are made at lunch, deals are made over coffee, deals are made in the hotel elevator, not just between heads of state, but between all the diplomatic teams and representatives from the private sector who are allowed to participate in the meeting, right? So, uh, it's something that I, I also believe, uh, a lot will be debated, a lot will be raised, if not by the two of them, as I said, then by these teams, by these other people who will be accompanying them.

[01:09:15]Well, but only in the official agreement, well, in the official debate, I think we'll have quite a few of these points raised, yes, okay? They will all be gathered in summits, in forums, discussing this. So it's not just the meeting between Donald Trump and Xin Pink, okay? But leave your comments below.

[01:09:31]I'd love to hear your opinions on this subject. Do you think China is growing as much as the United States? The question I ask you is, who needs the other more? I think it's a mutual issue, okay? I think it's a bilateral issue, really. But the question I'm asking you is, you can even bring data, things that we think, I agree, is bilateral in the sense that one is dependent on the other. I don't agree that they are equal in the sense that they are equally independent. It makes sense? China, independently, China alone, it can go much further than the United States alone, you understand? Although they are not necessarily dependent on each other, China is more independent in the international system than the United States. At least, that's what I believe, folks. I loved his analysis. I really enjoyed reacting to this video.

[01:10:20]I want to know if you guys enjoyed it, if you liked it. If you liked it, let me know in the comments below, okay? Tell me in the comments. I'm really interested to know. I liked it a lot. Today we can bring you a weekly analysis of it so we can discuss it together here. As I saw here, he posts like three, three, four videos a day, always updating, right? So, it 's something we can bring up fairly often. Hey, let me know if you liked it. And if you enjoy content about international relations, current events, and want to know what's happening in the world, follow me here on all social media platforms. A kiss for you and see you in the next video. Bye bye.

[01:10:54]Guys, this video is really fun to analyze, you know? I really liked it. I liked it, guys. I enjoyed it a lot. Let's go to the last one.

[01:11:11]Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

[01:11:19]Do you want Leonils or are you just tired of Leonils?

[01:11:27]What do you want?

[01:12:15]Ah, Leonils. Okay, then.

[01:12:31]Let's go. Let's go. What do you want to talk about?

[01:12:37]Ah.

[01:12:53]Here, look. I'm going to talk about Pokémon Go because I remember seeing that news and being shocked. Shocked.

[01:13:01]I know it's old news, but we're going to talk about it and you're going to like it. If you want to see this, it's a topic in the "Let's go, this here" section.

[01:13:26]For those who don't know me, hi, I'm Martina Giovanete, and I have a degree in international relations. And did you guys play Pokémon Go? Oh, I forgot to start recording.

[01:13:35]Sorry, everyone. I'll have to rewrite the introduction. Sorry. I know you don't like it, but I'll have to do it again, okay? For those who don't know me, hi, I'm Martina Giovanete, I have a degree in international relations, and did you guys play Pokémon Go? Yeah, I 'll admit that I didn't play, I never played. I don't think I ever had Pokémon Go installed on my phone, even when it was like, a huge craze. And there's a reason for that.

[01:14:01]You're going to be upset with me, you're going to be sad, you're going to be devastated, but I don't like Pokémon, okay? I know I'm a character flaw, I know I'm a problem, okay? My boyfriend makes this very clear to me, but I don't like Pokémon, I've never been interested in it. Every time I watched it, I didn't like it. So I watched it as a child, I watched it as a teenager, I watched it as an adult, and I said, "Oh my god, this really isn't for me," okay? And I know there are a lot of people who don't like Pokémon, aren't Pokémon fans, but who enjoyed the game. However, I thought it was kind of tacky. One more point.

[01:14:33]Uh, me, uh, bye, Diva. Kisses, Morgana. Until later.

[01:14:39]Well, I used to live in Belo Horizonte in a very isolated place, so I didn't have many places to hunt Pokémon, I lived in the middle of nowhere, you know? And in a place I knew, even my brothers who played, they had a really serious problem with Pokémon.

[01:14:58][snoring] Uh, were they going somewhere that had some good Pokémon? I think it was Mangabeiras Park, not a train station. Was it Mangabeiras Park or was it Liberty Park? By the time they're 50, they'll be in school, right? But let me call them.

[01:15:17]Call Henrico. Who here misses watching live streams playing Minecraft with Henrico? Do you remember those live streams? Do you want more?

[01:15:27]Hey man, where did you guys go to hunt Pokémon?

[01:15:34]Like this?

[01:15:36]No question. When you played Pokémon Go, was there any particular place you went to hunt Pokémon? Where was it?

[01:15:43]Now in freedom. Have n't you been to Mangabeiras Park once? No no? Okay. I just couldn't remember if it was in Praça da Liberdade or Parque das Mangabeiras.

[01:15:56]Why are you asking that?

[01:15:57]I'm making a video about Pokémon Go.

[01:16:01]Why? [snoring] Because ultimately, Pokémon Go was using players to map locations and sell that information.

[01:16:13]I understood.

[01:16:14]I'll talk about that here. When are we going to do a live stream playing Minecraft?

[01:16:20]No, I don't know. My time is short. Hey, let me know when you can. On vacation.

[01:16:27]No, sometimes before. It's just that this particular weekend is simply not possible. I can't even manage this weekend.

[01:16:34]Yeah, then I'll see next time, maybe. It 's OK. Beauty. What kind of game is played during the holidays? Are you going to be here? No, it isn't. I'll be in Porto Seguro, right?

[01:16:43]Oh, he's going to Porto. And truth. It's OK. When are you coming back, or before you leave? It is good then. Okay, bro. Kiss.

[01:16:54]Okay, we cleared up the Pokémon Go question, right guys? Let's go.

[01:16:59]Oh, what a silly thing to say. Let's go. Let's understand this whole Pokémon Go thing, which I already touched on a little bit in my call with my brother, but we'll look at it here. Here 's the thing, this is a topic where I'm going to have to make a partial apology. Maybe I made you work for free for a large corporation.

[01:17:15]Our.

[01:17:16]To train artificial intelligence.

[01:17:18]But we didn't know. We did n't know. Actually, no.

[01:17:20]And we left early. I don't think you can say that. Yeah, I think it 's very complicated to talk about something like that, because that kind of thing didn't even exist before. I did n't even have that, I didn't even have that business.

[01:17:29]It turns out, sorry, Google translation, it's from English, that your Pokémon Go data will be used to train robots. Data scanned from Pokémon Go will now help robots deliver pizza on time. It 's not good that Poligon is being marketed as if it's a miracle product, is it? No, no, he, they, he'll tell us the truth in a little while. When Pokémon Go debuted in 2016, it became an overnight sensation. Oh, cool.

[01:17:53]From London to New York, it seemed like everyone had installed Nantic's augmented reality mobile app.

[01:17:59]No, from London to New York there's the Atlantic Ocean, right? What else is it? It 's an American website, right? From London to New York, there's the Atlantic Ocean.

[01:18:07]Just the fact that they know London and New York are far away is already an advantage, right? Coming from the United States, the only possibility we have is a geography that's more or less from there downwards.

[01:18:19]Like, but it's okay, it was there.

[01:18:21]No, no, no. If you go to the other side of the planet, [laughs] okay? Unless you're going from London to New York, there's nobody [laughs].

[01:18:30]The people of Greenland in the middle.

[01:18:33]Greenland, Iceland. It's right there. What about us? Everyone had installed Niantic's augmented reality mobile app and was out on the streets in a frantic attempt to catch all the Pokémon. Although Niantic Special no longer manages Pokémon Go, Niantic Ink still exists within Scopey, which acquired the game in March 2025. The data collected by Niantic Space during those years, however, is being used to train robots. This news comes from Nantic Space's announcement of a new partnership with Cootics, which has developed an urban robot designed to deliver food in complex urban landscapes. With this collaboration, Coco Robotics will benefit from Nantic's expertise in spatial AI and its VPS visual positioning system for Primo.

[01:19:22]I think there are so many layers to it, because, like, it's an app aimed at a younger audience, a children's audience. right? Yeah, it's a job for free.

[01:19:32][laughs][sighing] It's something that, man, if the media maybe hadn't picked up to show this, it might never be hidden in some 500-page community guideline of the app when you install it. And finally, madness. Even more so the coconut delivery robot, or poop delivery robot.

[01:20:02]A fleet of about 1,000 robots the size of a flight case—I don't know what size that is—built to carry up to eight extra- large pizzas or four shopping bags, deployed in Los Angeles, Chicago, oh, Jersey City, Miami, and Helsinki. One of the biggest challenges faced by Coco is that the GPS signal can be weak in cities where radio waves reflect off tall buildings.

[01:20:27]So, who hasn't lost their GPS at some point?

[01:20:29]That's the important point. This is where you'll enter your Pokémon Go data to help the robots deliver pizzas. It will make a happy family.

[01:20:36]For example, Rob's promise is that's what it's for, right? Yeah, it sells for that, and then it turns to something else, and then something else, and then something else. Guys, when you train an IAR (Intelligent Audiovisual Analysis), that information will never stay confined to just one situation, one place, one scope, or one function, you understand? It's a dangerous thing, especially when aimed at a children's audience. "The optics for the last mile are immense, but the reality of navigating chaotic city streets is one of the biggest engineering challenges," said John Hunk, CEO of Niantic Space, a subsidiary founded by Niantic in May 2025, via the company's blog. "We are very happy to be working with Coco Robotics and as our first robotics partner, implementing spatial intelligence to help solve these challenges head-on." Hunk further added that they discovered that making Pikachu run realistically and making Coco's robot move safely and accurately through the world is actually the same problem. He puts it as a good thing. He explains how you worked for Niantic.

[01:21:42]The data collected from players of Pokémon Go and its predecessor Ingress, which was the game before, is being used to build an accurate model of the cities that Coco needs to navigate with the VPS system, which doesn't use GPS or ADA, which you understand is now for this, then for military equipment. It's something that should generate outrage.

[01:22:05]First, you work for free, second... Again, it's something aimed at children, images of children, it's children's work, right? They won't earn anything from it, they weren't even aware that this information would eventually be sold.

[01:22:21]Oh, man, it's messed up, isn't it?

[01:22:23]It's Naiant that allows Pokémon Go to determine a player's location in the world from their surrounding environment instead of relying on GPS. It's important to emphasize that Pokémon Go scanning is completely optional and clearly indicated. Players need to opt in and scan specific public locations. Naiant Spal and Naiant Ink have been transparent about this since 2019. Agree to the terms of use? I agreed.

[01:22:49]Yeah, I can't play Pokémon.

[01:22:53]But look, in 2019 we're back again, a game aimed at children. Children aren't going to read pages and pages and pages of a... a terms of use agreement for an app. I don't read them, guys, I don't read app terms of use agreements, right? Uh, I only find out when there's a very drastic change, I don't know, in the guidelines. From Instagram, I do n't know what. And what am I going to do?

[01:23:16]Delete my Instagram. I need to work.

[01:23:19][laughs] But that's it, you know? I didn't make Pokémon videos, so we didn't do that.

[01:23:24]If players choose to participate, their local scans and real-world landmarks help collect data to ensure greater accuracy in various conditions, such as altitude, angle, and weather. Here's the catch. In 2020, I had nothing to do with this, Pokémon Go added a feature called Field Research. I think it already had Field Research, yes, I think it was one of the last things I did. Seriously, does n't that name sound strange? Which rewarded players for taking photos and scanning their surroundings in exchange for items and rare Pokémon.

[01:23:55]Players needed to opt in, as was clearly indicated. However, regardless of whether they understood the implications or not, Naant, which has always been transparent about creating databases based on player training, helped feed Naant with data that was later used to train delivery robots. Fast food. Here's the thing, if you take pictures of places we mark here, you get an item in the game. You can complete the field research, which is a quest, but you're working for us for free to map the city.

[01:24:29]Yeah, you did that? You must have done some field research, it must have been towards the end.

[01:24:34]Hatching an egg faster, right?

[01:24:36]No, you got some Poké Balls.

[01:24:38]Here's a berry. Here's a shine to level up your Pokémon.

[01:24:44]How many field research tasks did you do today? Did you spend the whole day doing this?

[01:24:48]Thank you. You worked for us for free.

[01:24:50]Here's an egg. [laughs] Here you go. Here's an incubator so you can walk another 5 km, hatch more stuff.

[01:24:58]And guys, sorry, this happens in so many areas of our lives and we don't stop to analyze it.

[01:25:06]This happens with our personal data, does n't it? Just put your CPF here quickly.

[01:25:13]Or even worse, put your email here, because that way we can pull it from a database that's already been... Previously leaked, what CPF (Brazilian tax ID) is linked to this email, and so on, you understand? Take a quick picture of your house, do this, do that. Like, this happens with so many things in our lives, people, that we have no idea. Quickly put here your information about what you eat, what you consume, what things you like to do, what you don't like to do, if you're married, if you're single, if you're... well, we had a scandal about a year ago, I think, with that app, Flow, which is for women to track their menstrual cycle, to indicate what the symptoms of their menstrual cycle are, and so on.

[01:26:03]We had Flow selling women's menstrual cycle information to, for example, Instagram, so they would know exactly when to send an ad to that woman asking her to buy a sanitary pad because she's menstruating, because it knows exactly when she's menstruating. Do you have any idea?

[01:26:23]Weird. It's weird.

[01:26:24]Working more for us for free.

[01:26:25]It's not free, that's for sure. I got a Poké Ball. [laughs] I love my chat, I love my... You had these quests, I think you had to scan the environment and you were actually collecting information.

[01:26:37]You were basically the Google Car of Nantic for free.

[01:26:42]Oh my God.

[01:26:43]For free. And nowadays, to train AI, what's the most important thing?

[01:26:47]It's RAM, it's SSD, it's GPU, no. It's data. If you have data, you'll make a lot of money.

[01:26:55]But I still play Pokémon Go. Is that wrong?

[01:26:57]No, duh. You're helping some family get their pizza more successfully and more and more, and everything's fine.

[01:27:04]And in the future you can help a weapons company bomb your country.

[01:27:13]I'm exaggerating a lot, but guys, that's where my head goes.

[01:27:16]International relations, that's what I think about, you know? That's where it automatically goes, it thinks. It's bombs.

[01:27:25]Wow, there are still people playing Pokémon, guys. Wow.

[01:27:27]Yeah, Pokémon was great for me. People ask about it from time to time. Maybe one day I'll do a revival just to remember what it was like. But for me, it really had its moment. I had fun. I'm not going to take it away. I really enjoyed it.

[01:27:41]No, it was fun, it was important for us and all that.

[01:27:44]No, to be clear, they even corrected it here in the article, okay guys?

[01:27:47]Not everything you do in the game is being collected. There's a specific thing that was for these field research projects that you had to scan with your cell phone. They were basically capturing this image, getting the geographic information from it and building a visual map of the city for the robot to move around when there's no GPS data.

[01:28:05]Basically that, okay? And I'm not going to take it away from the game. I had a lot of fun.

[01:28:10]No, we have, I think that, like, this type of mapping can be done, they could hire someone to do this mapping, but they didn't hire anyone, they put people to work for free, including children. Good to remember, experience, It gave me hours of free fun, okay?

[01:28:26]Free. It gave me several cool videos for my channel.

[01:28:29]It was, it was very good.

[01:28:30]Yeah, no, they invited me to do the campaign in Japan. I, I, I had fun.

[01:28:34]For me it was worth it.

[01:28:35]No, it was very good. It was very good.

[01:28:36]It was worth it. However, you have to understand this. If you participated in field research, you're working for them for free. They found a way to monetize each player beyond simply selling items in the app.

[01:28:48]That's a way to monetize. Be aware of that, okay? If you didn't read the terms of use, now you know. And thank you.

[01:28:56]If you're playing for free, it's because you are the product. Yay!

[01:29:04]Uh! Uh, if you do anything for free, people, within the logic of a big tech company, it's because you are the product. Oh, Martina, but I consume social media. You are the product. You consume social media for free? You spend all day being the target of a bunch of ads and you are a product.

[01:29:29]I am a product. We are all products. Eva, long live objectification.

[01:29:34]If a robot comes to deliver my pizza here, it won't bump into anything. Thanks to you. There wo n't be any GPS problems here, Neus, because there aren't any tall buildings, only very tall trees. Let me tell you. We live in the middle of nowhere.

[01:29:47]But that's it, folks. I think Pokémon had its moment, it had its place in your heart. Oh, it was a cool game until we exhausted the content and realized there wasn't much to it. It wasn't just that.

[01:30:00]That's what happened with Pokémon, which was that the app they're making now for Pokémon battles had to be the combat mode of Pokémon Go, because you caught the Pokémon and there was nothing to do with them. They tried to give alternatives, then they added more.

[01:30:15]Excuse my ignorance again. I never played that game. You just caught Pokémon, you didn't fight against each other, you didn't play with other people, like fighting, you just caught them, there was nothing to do with the Pokémon.

[01:30:29]There was nothing to do. This was the game you guys liked. You're trying to judge, but holy [ __ ], right? What the hell is this? Was there nothing else to do with Pokémon, people? No, no. Looking for work, looking for a job. No, what is this, people?

[01:30:49]Stop, you're crazy, content, but it took too long. At the game's peak, what it lacked in content wasn't in JBI. And who's talking about looking for work, why? The audience isn't children, you didn't spend the whole thing saying the audience is children, they put children to work there. That's not an argument.

[01:31:05]There was nothing else to do in the game, people.

[01:31:09]What madness.

[01:31:10]No, and we had some experiences that left us kind of tired, frustrated.

[01:31:14]Yes, yes. Also, everyone had festivals that weren't... There were some that didn't work.

[01:31:19]We invested, we invested time, money, traveled, and there were some disorganizations like that.

[01:31:25]Yeah, it was a problem.

[01:31:27]Donald Trump announced that, well, uh, the, the, the conclusion of this, this video, so, uh, Well, anyone who played Pokémon Go is unemployed. I hate them all. I don't like Pokémon. And what was the other conclusion?

[01:31:50]Well, you worked for free and had nothing to do in the game, right? Nothing, nothing.

[01:31:56]That's nothing, nothing, right? I'm kidding, okay? (Contains irony. In parentheses, contains irony.) Well, folks, we're wrapping up the video for today. Well, it was mainly to address this issue of data sales, which I think is something we need to be aware of in all areas, not just in Pokémon Go. It's something very present in international relations in various spheres, okay?

[01:32:22]There are countries that could start wars over your information, so it's very valuable.

[01:32:29]Well, if you like content about international relations, current events, and want to know what's happening, follow me on all social media, okay? A kiss for you and until the next video. Bye, bye.

[01:32:42]Oh well, folks, we're finished. Exactly when I wanted to, okay? I have to teach now. Uh, we have to wrap up for today, but thank you so much to everyone who was present in this quick live stream, an hour and a half of live streaming. Uh, and I'll probably do another live stream tomorrow, okay? So, a slightly longer live stream so we can exchange more ideas, talk more, alright? A kiss for you all.

[01:33:06]Thank you so much for your company and goodbye.

[01:33:09][music] [music]
