Mexico is asking the United Nations for help about the Honduran
Caravan, which is knocking on its door for access, in order to continue its
journey to the US Border.

US President Donald Trump has issued a warning he`ll use the
Military to seal the US Border should the Honduran Caravan of would be migrants
cross over into Mexico. He`s threatening to cut all aid to Honduras, Guatemala
and El Salvador. Fully aware that the recently renegotiated North American Free
Trade Agreement is at imminent risk, Mexican Authorities have insisted that
those wanting to arrive in Mexico must have the relevant documentation
including passports. They`re also requesting the help of the United Nations
High Commission on Refugees to access asylum cases, to insure that human rights
are fully respected according to international law.
President Trump has tweeted a message of thanks to the
Mexican Government and US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who`s due in Mexico
today (Friday) for discussions about the crisis has also welcomed this move.
It now seems unlikely the Caravan who`s numbers have
increased to more that four thousand, will be allowed to enter Mexico.
