Machado held a phone call with women from La Lira blocks in La Dolorita, promising to return and embrace them.
She reiterated her intention to return to Venezuela, especially after the June 24 earthquakes.
Her return is hindered by aerial restrictions from Delcy Rodríguez's administration and lack of US government support.
US officials are divided: Chris Landau supports her return, while Marco Rubio opposes it.
