Aristóbulo Istúriz, Minister for Education and vice president for the social area, said on Thursday that the Vuelta a la Patria (Return to the Homeland) Plan has been affected by the obstruction of flights: “They do not want Venezuelans to return to their own country”, he said.
In his opinion, those who sowed the xenophobia against Venezuelans abroad are the same ones who attack the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. On the other hand, Blanca Eekhout, Minister for Communes, said that “the oligarch who is leaving with the money that he stole from the country, that one lives very well, but the poor one, the one who does not carry any money, meets the reality of that country, and will live the that people really lives”.
The holder of the office for communes, said that it is wanted in other countries not to see the example of Venezuela: “They want to stigmatize our country, they need to maintain quiet the voice of those Venezuelans who have left and who want to return”, she said. .
The minister also recalled that Venezuela opened the door to many foreigners to have a new chance of life when they could not have it in their countries of origin. In her opinion, the countries of the Lima Group are trying to create conditions for an intervention, “but they will not achieve it, here is a people that will not allow it,” she said.
Finally, she said: “How is it possible that Colombia, the country with the highest migration rate, comes to criticize us? Peru, Ecuador and Colombia, but more than anything Colombia, they have no moral to do it”. The information was provided during the broadcast of the “Dando y Dando” (Taking and giving) program, by the signal of RNV Informative channel.
