One of the consequences of last Sunday's controversial presidential election in Venezuela is that it could spark yet another migratory wave from the country. "The largest exodus in Latin America's recent history", as the U.N. described it, has already forced more than 7.7 million people to leave the country. And depending on how the political situation continues to evolve, that number could rise, and fast.
Such a crisis may inevitably lead to a significant increase in Venezuelans fleeing the country, with many heading for the U.S.-Mexico border. And cities like Denver, which already experienced a massive influx of 42,000 migrants since December 2022, are preparing for a possible new wave.
