Venezuela Vice-President: Migration levels are normal

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-45407617
---------------------

Vice-President Delcy Rodríguez said the figures had been inflated by "enemy countries" trying to justify a military intervention.

She spoke as officials from 13 Latin American countries were meeting to find a way to deal with the mass influx.
---------------------

While she did not name the "enemy countries", she went on to accuse neighbouring Colombia of asking for international funds ostensibly to deal with Venezuelan migrants on its border, when its real plan was to "live off" the donations.

Venezuela's government routinely blames neighbouring Colombia for many of its problems, including a failed drone attack on Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro
