Vuelta a la Patria Program: 85 Fellow Venezuelans Return from Ecuador
The Vuelta a la Patria program remains active, providing for the well being of fellow Venezuelans who are outside of Venezuela. This Thursday, March 11, 85 Venezuelans returned to the Bolivarian Republic through this program that provides free air tickets for Venezuelans in need of assistance living outside the country. This time they returned from the city of Guayaquil, Ecuador. Various reasons, including discrimination, xenophobia, and difficult economic situations, motivated Venezuelans to return to their homeland.
