In his intervention, the Minister referred to the deterioration of the political, economic and social situation in Venezuela, which has amounted to the greatest humanitarian crisis Latin American region has ever experienced, leading to a massive migration of Venezuelans to neighbouring countries. He pointed out that Greece is also a country that has faced the complex challenge of vast migration flows. Mr. Dendias concluded by stressing the need for solidarity and coordinated assistance to refugees and migrants from Venezuela, as well as the importance of addressing the root causes of the crisis in order to achieve a lasting political solution.
