## Transcript

We need to try to help those who are not getting medical help, help those who are hungry and today hopefully on the back of this concert we can start maybe getting supplies into Venezuela so that people are not suffering so much. We can raise further funds we would like to try to put those [ INAUDIBLE ] towards. Keeping doctors in Venezuela, keeping nurses in Venezuela. Because at the moment most of the doctors and most of the nurses have left Venezuela. And we need them to go back. I then saw an interview with one [ UNKNOWN ] who was asking for the world to help. And I decided to pick up the phone and speak with him.

And see what we could do to help and that was three weeks ago with, with Bruno on the phone as well. And he said he felt a wonderful concert, a wonderful free concert on the border to illustrate through music And the importance of letting relief into the country would be wonderful. So the last three weeks this team here and the few of our people as well have worked to pull this together and It looks like we're gonna have the exact event that we were all hoping for three weeks ago. Every country, every people in the world want freedom. They want fair elections. And Venezuela should be not different.

And any election should be monitored. People should know that they're free and fair, so that they can accept the outcome.
