The stricter immigration policies by the United States, particularly under Donald Trump, have led to the mass deportation of Venezuelan migrants, increasing unemployment and poverty in Venezuela. This situation highlights the economic fragility of Venezuela and the social challenges faced by returning migrants, which could impact regional stability and humanitarian aid efforts.

The event centers on the impact of Donald Trump's return to the White House and his administration's crackdown on immigration, which has led to the deportation of thousands of Venezuelan migrants, including Mariela Gómez. Mariela Gómez, after living in Colombia and Peru, sought a new life in the United States but was deported to Mexico and then returned to Venezuela, where she now faces unemployment and poverty. This situation is part of a larger trend where over 14,000 migrants, mostly from Venezuela, have returned to South America. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, under pressure from the White House, reversed his policy of not accepting deportees, leading to regular flights bringing immigrants back to Venezuela. The economic crisis in Venezuela, caused by a drop in oil prices, corruption, and mismanagement, exacerbates the challenges for these returning migrants.
