Approximately 300 Venezuelan migrants will return to their homes through the Vuelta a la Patria Plan

The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros, announced that through the Great Mission «Vuelta a la Patria” (Return to the Homeland) Plan, Venezuelan migrants from Mexico will arrive in the coming days. They were rescued from persecution by the United States government.

The head of state explained that an estimated 300 migrants will be sheltered through this social program. Of these 300, the majority are women and children.

The goal of the Bolivarian Government is to free all migrants kidnapped in the United States.

President Maduro emphasized that these patriotic Venezuelans managed to cross the border into Mexico, thus «saving themselves from persecution by the US government.»

Along these lines, he noted that last weekend, 175 Venezuelans arrived in the country, receiving a treatment that is unique in the world because «we know what they are suffering, and there is evidence that they have spent a year in prison, without trial, without the right to defense.»

He also denounced the United States government’s efforts to transfer a group of Venezuelans without trial to El Salvador, a country that President Nayib Bukele «has turned into a colony of the United States, a second Guantánamo to kidnap and carry out the forced disappearance of Venezuelan migrants.»

For this reason, the President urged those in charge of the Great Mission «Vuelta a la Patria» Plan to implement this program in a state by state basis, so that all migrants are meticulously cared for and integrated into their families and the community.
