In a recent statement, Senator Marco Rubio has highlighted the grave situation facing Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela, describing these regimes as “enemies of humanity.” According to Rubio, these countries have been primarily responsible for the migration crisis affecting the region, arguing that without them, this crisis would not exist.
Rubio explained that the political systems in these countries do not work, which has led millions of people to flee in search of better living conditions. In the case of Nicaragua, he mentioned that it has become a "family dynasty" with a co-presidency that has tried to eliminate the influence of the Catholic Church and any entity that could represent a threat to its power. This context has forced thousands of Nicaraguans to leave their homes, seeking refuge in other nations.
The senator also echoed the reasons that drive Cubans and Venezuelans to flee their respective countries, emphasizing that the situation is similar in all three cases. “Meanwhile, there are more Americans living here than Costa Ricans living in the United States,” Rubio said, using this data as an example of what happens when a country follows a correct path compared to those facing internal crises.
Rubio's statement resonates with growing international concern about the situation in these countries and the urgent need to address the underlying causes driving migration. The international community has been called upon to pay attention and act against these regimes that affect not only their citizens, but also the stability of the region as a whole.
In conclusion, Marco Rubio's words underline the complexity of the migration crisis in Latin America and the need for a more robust approach to confront the regimes that perpetuate misery and despair among its people.
