Still others come from Honduras. Some travel alone. Others, parents or mothers, travel with their children. Still others are complete families.
 
"I have come from La Paz because the thing is very difficult; My wife and I have no work and we have received threats of extortion. We do not have to pay the $ 280 they ask for, "said a 45-year-old man who travels with his wife and four-year-old son. While his father was talking, the boy tried to sneak out of his mother's arms to play, but the rain raged on them and on the few things they carried with them.

TUXTLA GUTIÉRREZ, Chis., (Proceso.com.mx) .- The Honduran activist, journalist and exlegislator, Bartolo Fuentes, whom the government of Juan Orlando Hernández accuses of gestating the exodus of thousands of migrants from that country, denounced that he fears for their safety, because they want to put him prisoner to please the government of Donald Trump.
 
In his social networks, Fuentes said he has never invited anyone to the mass exodus and that "it is totally false that he offered to take someone to the United States and give them asylum. It's the extreme poverty and the desperation that makes people leave. "
 
He pointed out that what he did suggest is "not to sneak away and choose better to appear before the Mexican authorities to seek refuge. This is an international right that people who feel their life in danger, for whatever reason, may use in the country where they reside and request protection in another where they believe they will be safe. "
 
"I'm in Honduras; but I'm not calm The threats from the government against me continue. Juan Orlando Hernández announced that they will go on to accuse those who are supposedly responsible for the mass exodus of Hondurans fleeing the misery and violence generated by the government, "Fuentes said.
 
He indicated that the government talks about a "criminal structure", but only he has been mentioned as an alleged member.
 
He said that people should not sneak away like hundreds of people have done every day in recent years.
 
"Leaving in large groups or caravans allows them to avoid police extortion, assaults, rapes, kidnappings, murders and other types of aggression. During the mandate of JOH the chancellery has repatriated one thousand six hundred corpses of migrants and in all the morgues of the migratory route there are bodies of Hondurans and Hondurans waiting to be brought to their relatives, "said the activist.
 
He points out that thousands of his compatriots died and were stuffed in the desert, devoured by birds of prey in some path or buried in a clandestine grave. Likewise, he stated that it is certain that among those that the authorities have buried in Mexico as strangers, there are migrants from Honduras.
 
He pointed out that he has never incited to commit crimes, but that he has oriented the workers and the migrants so that they know and defend their rights.
 
He stressed that since the Hernandez administration they are criminalizing migrants and want to imprison those who are in solidarity.
 
Explains that giving food, medicine, shelter or facilitate them to move is not a crime, but a humanitarian act.
 
He stated that the only way they can take him to jail is by inventing evidence or simply abusing his authority. "Both things I know they are capable of doing."
 
He thanked the solidarity offered and asked that they continue accompanying him, inside and outside of Honduras."

Well I think Bartolo Fuentes is lucky to still be alive.

" MEXICO CITY (proceso.com.mx) .- The government of Mexico City and elected officials of the next administration sent brigadistas to meet the needs of the migrant caravan as it passed through Oaxaca.
 
In a joint work table, both administrations agreed on actions to support Central Americans seeking to reach the United States.
 
The elected head of government Claudia Sheinbaum said that the first action derived from the work carried out in this table is the implementation of the "Humanitarian Bridge of Mexico City, support migrant exodus", which will reach the caravan in Oaxaca , to provide accompaniment, in coordination with the CDHCDMX, from before entering the city.
 
"Based on the conviction of the officials who are here today, we have decided to establish this permanent work desk to receive the caravan and establish all the necessary conditions to leave Mexico City as a hospital city and attend to the migrants, "said Sheinbaum Pardo.
 
The head of government José Ramón Amieva reported that thanks to the participation of 306 brigadistas belonging to 11 government agencies and 47 mobile units, access will be given to food, social integration, health, disposition and sanitation of the water, as well as preventive medicine, mainly to the population in vulnerable situations that are in transit.
 
The president of the CDHCDMX, Nashieli Ramírez, assured that a phenomenon of human displacement of this nature had never been registered in our country, for which the humanitarian bridge will give attention to this migratory crisis.
 
Also, it was announced that in the 16 city halls of the city there will be at least one collection center so that people who wish to show solidarity with the migrants can donate supplies that the CDHCDMX will define."
