THIS IS FINE: Venezuela Vice-President: Migration levels are normal.
UN figures suggest that 2.3 million people have fled Venezuela’s economic and political crisis since 2014.
Vice-President Delcy Rodríguez said the figures had been inflated by “enemy countries” trying to justify a military intervention.
She spoke as officials from 13 Latin American countries were meeting to find a way to deal with the mass influx.
Venezuela has lost 7% of its population to this “normal” migration of happy workers satisfied with life in the socialist republic.
