Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva stated that his government will continue to receive Venezuelan migrants fleeing the socialist regime of Nicolás Maduro. However, he expressed hope for a return to normalcy in Venezuela so that migrants can eventually go back home.
Brazil ian socialist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva said on Wednesday that his government will continue receiving Venezuela n migrants , but hopes that its neighbor “returns to normal” so the migrants can go back “as soon as possible.”
“The Minister for Foreign Affairs has been instructed and determined by the Presidency of the Republic that we should treat people who are coming to Brazil out of a need to survive with great respect,” Luladuring an interview given to Rádio Norte FM. “You know that human beings are kind of nomadic, when they don’t have a place to eat, when they don’t have a place to work, they look for other places.
Lula stated that he will visit Brazil’s northernmost state of Roraima — which neighbors Venezuela — at an unspecified date and discuss the issue of Venezuelan migrants with the state’s governor Antonio Denarium “so that we can definitely treat these thousands of Venezuelans who are in Brazil with great responsibility and respect.”
Over the past decade — and as a result of the collapse of socialism in Venezuela, led by the authoritarian socialist Maduro regime — Venezuela is undergoing what has been described as the worst migrant crisis in the Western Hemisphere, matched only in size by the Syrian and Ukrainian migrant crises., over 7.7 million Venezuelans — roughly 27.
