Aruba: Border with Venezuela remains closed

Retrieved

The Aruban government has decided that the borders with Venezuela will not be opened for the time being. A period of another three months has been agreed for this. Venezuela closed its borders with Aruba in February 2019. In May of that year, the regime in Caracas wanted to reopen the borders, but Aruba did not agree. Initially, closure was announced for a month, but then followed by a three-month extension. According to Prime Minister of Aruba Evelyn Wever-Croes, Aruba is still insufficiently prepared for a possible influx of Venezuelan citizens and therefore the border remains closed.
