Mollie Hamman- Venezuela closes border with Colombia

Venezuelans at the bridge from Cucuta in Colombia returning to San Antonio de Tachira in Venezuela, on July 10, 2016.

After dealing with the "mafia" (a general term for organized crime) the socialist government in Venezuela closed their borders so their economy would heal from the economic damage that the "mafia" had done. The "mafia" would take items such as diesel and petrol and sell it for a high price over in Colombia. This was hurting the economy, so the socialist government decided to close their border without warning Colombia first.
