"Americans support the aspirations of the Venezuelan people to be free and live healthy, prosperous lives. As the world watches with dismay the collapse of the Venezuelan healthcare system, there is growing concern over public health challenges now being exported to Venezuela’s neighbors through mass migration. The goal of today’s meeting is to understand how we can partner with the Guaidó government to help alleviate the suffering."
