This Tuesday, April 1st, the President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, applauded the decision of the United States judge who blocked President Donald Trump's decision to eliminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS), to more than 170,000 Venezuelans who migrated for economic reasons and work decently in North America.

He also stressed that the Foreign Enemies Act of 1798, “predates international Public Law, humanitarian law and international law that protects human rights and those of migrants in a special way, and is signed by the United States and all nations of the world.”

In the program Maduro Live De Repente, he argued that “this has neither feet nor heads in the light of the legal system of the United States nor the world order of 1945 until now. It violates everything, ethics, legality, human rights, but they insist on extremism, hate.”

In that sense, he stated that the pattern is set by “the patron and María Machado” and added that “we already know the causes: The brutal economic war called for by the fascist extreme right and that they have done so much damage to the country”.

“While we went out to defend the right of migrants, to explain the causes of migration and to ask that all sanctions be lifted with a strong economic recovery plan, so that one more migrant does not leave the country, María Machado, with her patron, Marco Rubio, prevailed,” he said.

He argued that “I stand up for migrants who live in the United States.”

He also considered it “an embarrassment” that the Judiciary in El Salvador has not yet taken any decision on the violation of the human rights of Venezuelan migrants.”

On the other hand, he reported that next Thursday, April 3rd and Friday, April 4th at the Casa Amarilla, in Caracas, the Seminar on the Criminalization of Migration and the Human Rights of Migrants will be held.
