Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 20:10:34 GMT

Hace cinco años Alexis Llanos y su familia huyeron de Venezuela hacia Colombia, escapando de amenazas de muerte y persecusión política. Tampoco allí consiguieron estabilidad y resolvieron atravesar la peligrosa selva panameña del Darién para cruzar ilegalmente la frontera de Estados Unidos con México. Sus planes ya tenían fecha para agosto de 2023 cuando un amigo les contó de un nuevo programa del gobierno de Estados Unidos que les permitiría llegar de manera legal. Entonces decidieron esperar, y funcionó. Después de un proceso de cuatro meses que incluyó exámenes médicos y numerosas entrevistas con organismos de la Naciones Unidas y funcionarios estadounidenses, Llanos, su pareja Diomaris Barboza, y sus hijos de 7 y 3 años llegaron a la Florida.
