William Hilderbrandt is pleased to welcome Paolo Cravero, Senior Officer for Communications and Media Relations at the IFRC. The devastating earthquake in Venezuela has exposed not only the immense human cost of a natural disaster, but also the complex interplay between humanitarian response, state capacity, and international solidarity. Carvero, ever-so-carefully avoids political judgement while presenting a broader humanitarian framework through which to understand the crisis. Rather than framing the catastrophe primarily as a failure of governance, Carvaero argues that an earthquake of such magnitude would overwhelm virtually any national emergency system. #Venezuela #Earthquake #IFRC 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X: https://f24.my/Xen Bluesky: https://f24
