Mexico City Offers Resting Point for Migrant Caravan
墨西哥城為移民大篷車提供休息點
Over 4,000 migrants from Central America have made it to a rest stop at a sports stadium in Mexico City where they are receiving water, food, and shelter. The first wave in the caravan left eastern Honduras on October 13 and many, including small children, have walked most of the way on foot. After travelling over 1,600 kilometers, the migrants consider Mexico City a major milestone. The goal of the migrants is to reach the US in hopes of finding employment opportunities and a safer place to live. President Trump, however, has called the caravan an invasion and has threatened to close the US-Mexico border to prevent the migrants from entering the US. Some of the migrants say they will seek asylum in Mexico instead. Two more groups are following close behind and should arrive in Mexico’s capital in the next few days.
4000多名來自中美洲的移民已經抵達了墨西哥城的一處體育場休息點,那里提供的有水、食物和住所。大篷車里的第一批人于10月13日從洪都拉斯東部出發,包括幼兒在內的很多人一路上大多都靠雙腳行走。在走了1600多千米后,移民們認為墨西哥城是一個重要的里程碑。他們的目標是抵達美國,希望能找到工作機會和更安全的居住地。但是特朗普總統稱這些大篷車是一種入侵,并威脅關閉美墨邊境,阻止這些移民進入美國。有些移民表示他們將轉而在墨西哥尋求庇護。另有兩大批移民緊隨其后,未來幾天應該能抵達墨西哥首都。
