Description of Pictures: Venezuela's ambassador to assess his country's political situation at Headliners Newsmaker
Carlos Vecchio, ambassador of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to the United States, will address his country's political situation at a National Press Club Newsmaker.
Vecchio's talk will focus on the role the United States and the international community can play to aid the Venezuelan people as they struggle amid political chaos, food and fuel shortages and economic uncertainty.
Vecchio was appointed ambassador to the United States in January 2019 by Juan Guaidó, who declared himself interim president after a widely boycotted election last year that many foreign governments refused to recognize.
The event was moderated by the NPC's Myron Belkind.

Bigger photos? To save space on the server and because the modern camera images are so large, photos larger than 640x480 have not been loaded on this page. If you need the bigger sizes of selected photos, email me and I can email them back to you or I can re-load this page temporarily with the bigger versions restored.
2019 photos: Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000.
Trips this year:
a four-day jaunt to Massachusetts (Boston, Stockbridge, and Springfield) to experience rain in another state,
Asheville, NC to visit Dad and his wife Dixie,
three trips to New York City (including the United Nations, Flushing, and the New York Comic-Con), and
my 14th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con (including sites in Utah).
That's it so far!
Partially Reviewed: Rough draft. I've gone through these pictures once, removing the worst ones, some duplication, etc. I usually take sequences of 4 or 5 pictures at a time and there are lots of near duplicates. I'll be doing a final review later which will cull the pictures down some. To be honest though, I'm way behind on doing final reviews.
