requirements for venezuelans wanting to enter the country like many fifty year old gabriele malo volta wants to travel through ecuador and then into peru but the authorities there too are cracking down on venezuelans. i'm here with my wife we're hoping for some kind of humanitarian measure from the ecuadorian government that allows us to enter so we can continue our journey to peru. we really want to contribute. if we don't work our kids will starve. we're going to stick together until we get to our destination in peru so we can work and fight for our kids. that may now be more difficult but with the venezuelan economy in tatters and no guarantee president maduro is reforms will succeed there's little incentive for would be emigrants to

return home. colombia is a transit country for the thousands of venezuelans seeking work on a new life in ecuador and rule and ophelia homes there who teach joins us from the capital bogota affiliates good to see you let's begin with you giving us a sense of the conditions in venezuela that are really forcing these people from their homes what's it like. well the crisis has reached on presidents of levels you said it before hyper inflation is believed to reach one million percent this year i spent some days in venezuela earlier this year to cover the elections and you can literally see people eating from the garbage you have to stand in line for hours because of the shortages everywhere and it takes hours to just get one apple or a couple of eggs now april of this year about eighty percent of the population was believed to to be living in severe poverty and hundreds more are at risk of

which many venezuelans don't have because of the turmel in their country and we've actually seen a scene a tightening of those borders in brazil which says it's now sending troops to the border town where recent clashes occurred how explosive is the situation. well these troops that will be sent out on monday are supposed to drive in as well and out of these improvised cons like the one that was attacked on saturday but we do believe that these riots will become more common as we seize in zero four we are increasing in the region we saw protests in ecuador earlier this this week asking the government to solve the situation because many fear that venezuelans will be taking over they jobs they do i agree to earn lower wages than the locals and we have seen some petty crimes and this has become a reason for many to believe that venezuelans will be turning their towns into
