High-Risk Boat Extraction Sends Machado Toward Curaçao (Full Transcript)

[00:00:00] Speaker 1: I am Maria Corina Machado, I'm five, I'm six.

[00:00:02] Speaker 2: We're boarding on a boat to go get Maria Corina Machado. We've been here, we've been in and out of the region now for over a month working on Venezuelan ops, but this is the big enchilada. We're on boat two here at the rally point. Boat one we have not heard from in quite some time, but they have no cops. So we're going to sit here for a little bit and it is what it is.

[00:00:32] Speaker 3: Maria, hi, do you have a suitcase or a bag or what do you have?

[00:00:41] Speaker 2: Here it comes, here it comes Brian, here it comes, here it comes. Guys, hi Maria, my name is Brian, nice to meet you.

[00:00:58] Speaker 3: Jackpot, jackpot. Objective golden dynamite in route Curaçao at this time.

[00:01:04] Speaker 1: Machado described a dangerous and scary moment during her escape. The waves were very high, over six feet, and there was a strong wind and we got lost in the ocean. We lost the sign of the GPS and the satellite phone stopped working and Starlink antenna did not work as well, all at the same time.

[00:01:32] Speaker 4: She is a very, very, very resolute and tough, just tough leader and tough woman. When we were on the boat together, we talked about this and I begged her not to go back.
