Everyone else in the caravan, which has traveled through Mexico for days from Chiapas, will have to petition the Mexican government for permission to stay in the country or will have to leave.

JO Rodríguez, a federal delegate with INM, told me this was not in response to Trump speaking out against the caravan. “Mexico is acting without pressure to find a solution to this problem.”

Gina Garibo, an organizer with Pueblos Sin Fronteras, said the caravan was not over. They will continue to travel towards the US with asylum seekers. “We will continue,” Garibo said. “We have to follow through with our promise.”

“At the end of the day these people have the right to ask for asylum,” Garibo said.

Just want to say that often marches stop in Oaxaca and go no further. They have a lot of needy and unattended there also, and often a repressive government as well.

That's a big policy shift for the Mexican government. Good for them, but I suspect it's because this isn't the confrontation they want right now
