a very warm welcome to our viewers on every continent but Antarctica.

Carla Zeus for CNN 10 If you're wondering why we didn't have a show yesterday, the reasons just a few minutes away after we make stops in the Caribbean and South America, let's go.

U S Central Intelligence Agency says Haiti, an island nation between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, has had political struggles for most of its history.

Since February 7th, violent and deadly protests have been held in the Haitian capital of Port au Prince.

S State Department says violent crime, like armed robbery, is common in Haiti and that responses to emergency calls or either limited or they don't happen at all.

They blame him for the soaring costs of goods and corruption within the government.

On Saturday night, the nation's prime minister asked for calm and acknowledged there is corruption in Haiti, but that the government would fight and uncover it.

And President Moist says he will not leave Haiti quote in the hands of armed gangs and drug traffickers.

Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.

More than half the population lives below the national poverty line, and there are questions about some arrests that were made in the past few days.

Haiti's government says seven of the eight people taken into custody or it from Haiti.

The situation on the ground here in the capital is sort of a tenuous comb.

The government has asked all sectors, from the schools to the public agencies to businesses to reopen and get back to some state of normalcy.

Today, the schools have not reopened, but some gas stations have some businesses have on the agencies that the government seems to be coming back.

But there are rumors and talk about Maur protests ahead.

There appear to be some efforts to block roads in certain parts of the capital and possibly other areas of the country.

That is what the police are on high alert for now.

About the eight individuals arrested, they had a ton of guns on them, many automatic weapons that would have to be registered in the country as well as radios.

Government officials are telling us that there are foreign forces influences out there that are are trying to destabilize the country throughout these protests.

In other words, that the protest that we saw over the last 9 10 days or so last week we're not just an expression of popular revolt and upset with the government, but that there was something more at play here, whether or not they make that argument.

Later, as as these individuals are arraigned, we will find out.

Here in the capital between the protesters and the president, there appears to be a stalemate.

Still, he is holding fast in saying he will not resign.

Is that the the measures announced by the prime minister over the weekend?

Ah, 30% cut to his budget, end to government of worker perks and increase in the minimum wage.

All those things will buy them enough breathing room and placate protesters that they will go back to work on and stop trying to shut down the country.

Miguel Marquez, CNN Port AU Prince, Haiti, Moving southeast across the Caribbean from Haiti.

We come to the South American nation of Venezuela with an economy that's falling apart.

It's a country in need of supplies like food and medicine.

It's a country that's been sent supplies from the U.

But the question is, will Venezuela's government actually let those items through the borders?

President Nicolas Maduro says the aid isn't needed and that it's part of an attempt planned by the U.

S Senator Marco Rubio, who visited the border between Venezuela and Colombia yesterday, said it'd be a crime against humanity if President Maduro doesn't allow the supplies in the group that opposes him plans to bring in the shipment's on February 23rd.

So the world will be watching what happens this weekend, when truckloads of supplies approached the Venezuelan border.

It isn't just a mission to deliver basic goods.

Over the weekend, three planes carrying 66 metric tons of humanitarian relief made its way to the Venezuelan border with Colombia supplies part of an effort led by the U.

In both the departments of defense and State.

A State Department official, Julie Chung, helped lead the mission to assist the million's impacted by what she called a manmade crisis created by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.

So anything that's stopping us is a Maduro regime we've seen that blocked.

The bridge is blocked the roads, and it's an abomination to humanity to stop basic necessities and goods from entering your country to help your own people.

Is there any concern that something like this would provoke him from doing something even more drastic?

That this could perhaps be seen as further politicizing a crisis politicizing the prices?

Lester Toledo, a representative of self declared interim Venezuelan president Kwon y, though joined the U.

Aid arrived on the Venezuelan border February 8th.

I asked him if this is the year Venezuela will turn the corner, and he said he thinks it'll happen in a matter of weeks.

This is the second shipment of humanitarian aid sent by the U.

Government to help us in the last two weeks.

They say it's part of their commitment to interim president Want Y, though inside these pallets, they say, enough to feed 3500 Children.

And after 25,000 adults landing in Colombia, the humanitarian convoy was greeted by U.

I D Director Mark Greene, he said The aid is arriving at the most critical time.

In a matter of minutes, the supplies were offloaded and driven to this warehouse in Bogota, Colombia, positioned only a few 100 yards from Venezuela.

The question now, with the border closed and my Ludo's regime showing no sign of backing down, how to get the supplies to the people who need it most.

President, but do you know who's honored by Presidents Day?

You could have asked Calvin Coolidge, but he might have been silent on the matter.

Teddy Roosevelt might have walked softly around the subject despite being a rough rider.

Most Americans believed President's Day is about every president we've had, but that's kind of wrong.

President's Day was originally Washington's birthday, just Washington's.

On February 22nd it became a federal holiday in 18 85.

S government's concerned, it's still Washington's birthday, not president's day.

Congress voted to switch it to the third Monday in February, giving government employees a three day weekend.

But even though Washington's birthday and Lincoln's birthday were only days apart, Congress refused to combine them.

In the President's Day, though that's what many Americans do.

So if you work for the government, you'll get a day off for Washington's birthday.

If you don't, you may get a day off for president's day.
