United States President Joe Biden invoked a coverage to disclaim residents of crisis-ridden Venezuela entry into America
By India Today Web Desk: US President Joe Biden has invoked a coverage that turns down Venezuelan residents’ probability to hunt asylum on the United States border.
Under the coverage, the Biden administration will expel any Venezuelan who illegally enters Mexico or Panama to get into America.
The US president’s determination comes at a time when the nation is ready to vote for the mid-term election scheduled on November 8.
On the opposite hand, Mexico has insisted that the US admit one Venezuelan on humanitarian parole for every Venezuelan it expels to Mexico, based on a Mexican official who was not authorised to debate the matter publicly and spoke on situation of anonymity.
So if the Biden administration paroles 24,000 Venezuelans to the US, Mexico would take not more than 24,000 Venezuelans expelled from the US, reported the AP.

However, no less than 24,000 Venezuelans could be allowed on the US airports in step with the Ukrainians, who had been admitted to the nation after Russia’s invasion.
