Today 23-10. The American actress Angelina Jolie, ambassador of the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), and the foreign minister met in the city of Lima to discuss the situation of the Venezuelan refugees currently living in that country.
The words of the actress for the magazine people in Spanish, "What I want is for people to know that you have not left Venezuela because you wanted to get a better job, the situation is much more serious than people think. How can a good situation be if two and a half million have left the country! "Jolie told the refugees.
I think as a Venezuelan who still lives in the country that people who have left do not leave because they want, but leave to get a better quality of life for themselves and their families, some separated by the great crisis that this country is facing, where we have opened the doors to millions of foreigners and that today more than ever we need not to open them to each and every one of Venezuelans who are looking for a better future. π
