Secretary Antony J. Blinken At a Migrant Integration Center

Here in this place, what we saw today is what really could be a model for many other places, where all in one place people coming to their temporary protected status cards, get services, get connected to schools, get connected to jobs, get connected to support, social services, all here in this beautiful place, but it’s part of the municipality of Bogotá.  And it’s a place that works for Colombians and works for Venezuelans, and it – in fact, it works for the citizens now of Bogotá.  So it’s a remarkable model.
SECRETARY BLINKEN:  Thank you. Well, thank you so much, Madam Mayor.  This is the third time that we’ve met.  I have such admiration for the mayor’s extraordinary leadership on so many issues.  We first met talking about climate and the incredible work that Bogotá has done on climate change.  We’re here today to talk about migration and the challenges that we face together.  And in so many of these areas, COVID as well, the mayor and the city have done extraordinary work.
