00:00We came for a better life than the one we had in Venezuela.
00:08We arrived here with a dream,
00:11wanting to work to help our family,
00:14to have a future.
00:22One night we came from work, my husband and I,
00:25when we arrived at the house,
00:28the lady had put a candle to the door
00:33so that we didn't enter.
00:35And so we started all this odyssey to come here.
00:40This camp, I returned to Venezuela,
00:43which I have baptized with that name,
00:45with all my friends venezolanos,
00:46is composed of 450 people until now.
00:51We are doing everything possible
00:53through a non-governmental organization
00:59that is the one that is helping us
01:01to move all these Venezuelans brothers
01:05to the border of Venezuela.
01:07Here in Bogotá, we get the 50 buses
01:10that are the ones that will serve
01:12to take us to that corridor.
01:14We are not going to be in Cúcuta,
01:17we are going directly from the humanitarian corridor
01:20to our destination,
01:22which is San Antonio del Táchira,
01:23in our country.
01:24We are asking the government
01:26to send us free
01:27to take them to 50 buses
01:29that we have here in Bogotá.
01:31We already have logistics,
01:33we already have everything contracted.
01:34We are not asking them
01:36even a dollar,
01:37we only give them the permission
01:39to be able to return to Venezuela.
02:00In this moment,
02:02the estimate we have
02:03is that 15,000 Venezuelans
02:07are looking back to their country.
02:09In the case of Bogotá,
02:10we are managing seven buses diaries,
02:14four to the north of Santander
02:16and three to the Arauca.
02:17However,
02:18given the restrictions established
02:20by Venezuela,
02:22we have taken the decision
02:23for several days
02:24to restrict the possibility
02:27of migrants in buses
02:29to the border border.
02:31Why?
02:32Because of the decision
02:33of Venezuela
02:34to restrict their own
02:36income of their nation
02:38to their country.
02:40Why?
02:41Because we can't
02:42we can't bring
02:43a situation
02:44to the north of Santander,
02:46Arauca
02:47or La Guajira
02:47that already
02:48has a huge charge
02:49against the migrant population.
02:52Many say
02:53that the border
02:54is closed,
02:55that it is open.
02:56No,
02:56the humanitarian corridor
02:57is visualized
02:59by the World Health Organization,
03:02by the Cruz Roja
03:03and the two organizations
03:04that are organizing
03:05to take us from the border.
03:07We just hope
03:09that the immigration
03:10will give us the permission
03:11of the arrival
03:12of those buses,
03:13because the entry
03:14to Venezuela
03:15we already have.
03:15The immigration
03:16is already there,
03:18all the logistics
03:19is there.
03:20That's what we ask.
03:21We have a great
03:30time to see.
03:30Many people
03:30are good,
03:31really.
03:32People who
03:33are proud
03:34and are proud
03:34of our hearts
03:36and are proud
03:37of all
03:37what they have done
03:37for us.
03:38Really,
03:40people who are proud
03:42to be proud.
03:47is a priority
03:48for the children
03:48and women.
03:49The priority
03:50for the girls
03:50but with the children and the women, one is happy.
04:06We complete seven days
04:08with the Venezuelan migrant population
04:10that is on our backs
04:12so that they accept the aid of the district
04:14for the guarantee of their rights.
04:17Unfortunately, they continue to reject
04:20however, 30 migrants have accepted
04:23our albergues
04:25so that while Migration Colombia
04:27gives us the exit to the border
04:30they can be with the guarantee of their rights.
04:33This morning a large group
04:35yesterday a large group
04:38came to a refuge
04:39that they gave them for 10 days
04:42that refuge
04:44the question of mine
04:45that we have also made
04:46the authorities here
04:47after the 10 days
04:49what?
04:50so that was in the air
04:51that was what they were proposing
04:53to take the children
04:54to take the women
04:55to a refuge
04:56for 10 days
04:57and we didn't want to accept
04:58because after the 10 days
04:59what?
05:04What they went today
05:06was because
05:06the terminal came in
05:08that they had
05:09pipes to leave
05:10to the autobuses
05:12and one who had the money
05:13was $180
05:14was in the car
05:16the passage
05:16is too expensive
05:17very expensive
05:18very expensive
05:18when I arrived here
05:20for a year and a half, I came here with 60,000 pesos.
05:49Now, what happens?
05:49Se está pasando un proceso que es buscar para hacer las pruebas del COVID-19 que todavía está en trámite
05:59porque la Cruz Roja todavía no nos ha dado el aval de aceptación para venir hasta acá
06:03y hacer la aprobación de que son válidas, ¿verdad?
06:07Y llevar un proceso que salga todo bien para que nosotros podamos salir.
06:11Si nosotros llevamos las pruebas, si cumplimos con los requisitos que nos está exigiendo el Estado de Colombia,
06:18va a ser un éxito porque vamos a llegar todos a Venezuela.
06:22Solamente esperar que nos vengan a buscar, que nos digan que ya, que vamos a Venezuela.
06:29Ya estar con nuestra familia.
06:34Porque no es justo que nosotros estemos pasando esto.
