Roughly 8,000 migrants from places such as Honduras and Nicaragua have now arrived at the US-Mexican border in Tijuana, Mexico, to enter the United States.
But they are not very welcome by the locals. But the chance to enter the United States is said to be “close to zero” and the waiting period for seeking asylum is very long.
A 28-year-old man from Honduras, one of the first to reach the border, told the news agency AFP that he will not wait for the months or years that it may take to seek asylum in the United States.
Instead, he is ready to try to get in by force by storming the border. We are ready to die, whatever is required. “When you live in poverty and violence, it’s better to die than to live”, he said.
“We do not want you here. Would you like us to come to your homes and mess them up,” a woman shouted.
US President Donald Trump argues that it is rarely about real refugees, and writes on Twitter:
“Isn’t it ironic that large Caravans of people are marching to our border wanting U.S.A. asylum because they are fearful of being in their country – yet they are proudly waving… …their country’s flag. Can this be possible? Yes, because it is all a BIG CON, and the American taxpayer is paying for it!”
