Yasmin Silva weighs Colombian-grown tobacco leaves to roll into cigars in San Antonio, Venezuela, near the Colombian border which has been partially closed for years since Venezuela cut off diplomatic relations, Wednesday, August 3, 2022. Colombia’s incoming Foreign Minister Alvaro Leyva and Venezuelan Foreign Minister Carlos Faria announced in late July that the two nations will restore diplomatic ties once Colombia’s new president is sworn-in on Aug. 7, and that the border will gradually reopen, which has Silva hoping that imports from Colombia will increase, and boost her current earnings of about $7 dollars a day.
