00:00Let's listen now to the statements of the Minister.

00:04It looks like the Interior Minister is at the moment in the airport receiving in first

00:13hand the migrants that are arriving from the U.S. that also were transferred in Mexico

00:22and arriving at this moment from Mexico's international airport.

00:29Hundreds of Venezuelans have arrived thanks to the Return Homeland Plan.

00:36And this is a new group, a new group far away from violence, far away from evil, far away

00:43from all that persecution, repression applied in the United States, far away from the persecution

00:55applied just for being Venezuelans or just for having a tattoo, far away from considering

01:02Venezuelans as criminals, far away from those that have mistreated our people.

01:09So they are welcome warmly, with solidarity, with brothers who hug from all that they are coming.

01:19That's the way we are working between governments without any violations, abuses, threats.

01:28So the Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has given the instruction to bring all Venezuelans

01:34back and we will achieve it, we will do it.

01:38Those who have been kidnapped by the government of El Salvador, those who have been sent from

01:44the United States and they have been labeled as criminals without being subjected to any trial,

01:51without having any criminal records.

01:54So we expect them to be back in Venezuela.

01:57We hope that the Salvadoran government delivers all Venezuelans kidnapped in El Salvador,

02:05for them to meet with their families, brothers and sisters and sons and daughters and grandparents.

02:13So in this group, there are coming children who are traveling alone.

02:21They are just doing the trip by themselves so they will meet again with their grandparents,

02:28their parents and so we are just serving them warmly, with affection and we are just deploying

02:36the same strategy that we have pursued in all the flights that have been made.

02:45So we have physicians specialized in children and there is a person with health issues

03:01and every citizen is prioritized, taken to the hospital, taken to the medical centers

03:07and then they are delivered to their homes, to their families.

03:11So we are a responsible government with some partners who have been suffering

03:19from what it meant to abandon the country and they have been used by criminal coyotes

03:27who apply the same technique and are just negotiating from El Salvador,

03:32negotiating lives and the future of hundreds of Venezuelans that are just suffering from this predicament.

03:40Today, Venezuela received its sons and daughters and children who come back to their homeland

03:49with the hope of reincorporating to their normal life.

03:53We have the return homeland life plan and so there are all officials and all security institutions

04:03at the service of Venezuelans and the Red Cross is there here, the migration police,

04:09all the institutions attending Venezuelans because they come from a very uncomfortable situation

04:19which increases desperation.

04:27So we receive them warmly after the suffering being kidnapped by the United States government

04:38who doesn't care about human rights.

04:42So we will welcome them warmly and let's see.
