The Venezuelan state, in a total, integral, and absolute manner, joins the defense of our migrants, Interior Minister Cabello said.
On Monday, Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello called for a massive march in Caracas this Tuesday to demand respect for the rights of Venezuelan migrants who were sent to Salvadoran prisons.

“Notice the difference: over there, they are being thrown out, and their cars, motorcycles, cell phones, and belongings are stolen. What a difference, right? You are children of Venezuela. Come back to your country. Your family is here, we are here. We do not persecute you,” Cabello declared, emphasizing the contrast between the treatment Venezuelans receive abroad and the welcome Venezuela offers to foreigners.
Cabello also harshly criticized far-right politicians who have promoted campaigns against Venezuelan migrants and are now benefiting from the situation.
“The country and the world must remember that the Popular Will party boasted until recently about being the main advisors to the fascist Nayib Bukele,” the Interior Minister said, referring to the relationship between the Venezuelan opposition party and the Salvadoran president.
In response to the situation, Cabello called for a massive march in Caracas that will depart from Plaza Morelos and head to the San Francisco corner, where National Assembly authorities will receive the citizens.
“We invite everyone to participate with their families. Go, demand justice for your children, and insist that they be returned to Venezuela. No one should mistreat your children or accuse them without trial,” he said.
The Interior Minister also announced the creation of an Instagram page, @migrantesveñe, and a website, comitedefensamigrantes.gov.ve, where Venezuelans can register testimonies of persecution and mistreatment in other countries.
“The Venezuelan state, in a total, integral, and absolute manner, joins the defense of our migrants,” Cabello said, demanding an end to the persecution and mistreatment of migrants in the United States.
“Maximum unity among our people. Maximum unity,” the Bolivarian official stated, calling for solidarity among Venezuelans in the face of discriminatory practices against migrants triggered by the implementation of the 1798 Enemy Foreigners Act.
“The so-called American dream is not worth it; it has turned into the Salvadoran nightmare. It is an atrocious action only comparable to Adolf Hitler’s racial segregation laws,” Cabello recalled.
