Venezuela will allow the return and regularization of Colombians repatriated during the recent border crossing dispute between the two countries. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro met with UNASUR Secretary General Ernesto Semper at the UN General Assembly and agreed that the 22,000 Colombians who returned home during the crisis, either deported or in fear of being sent back, could regularize their situation in Venezuela. An estimated 5.6 million Colombians live in Venezuela. teleSUR
