VOA常速英语:Migrant Caravan Shrinks After Trump’s Warning

Mexican authorities last week blocked a caravan of migrants on a border bridge between Mexico and Guatemala but many later swam across the Usumacinta River or crossed on makeshift rafts to continue their way north.We risked a lot to cross the river and risked our lives because in Honduras there isn’t a chance for a good life. Trump praised Mexico for blocking the migrants. I want to thank Mexico.Mexico has been so incredible because now Mexico respects the leadership of the United States.
上周，墨西哥当局在墨西哥和危地马拉之间的一座边境桥上阻止了一群移民，但许多人后来游过乌苏马辛塔河，或乘坐临时木筏向北继续前行。我们冒着很大的风险过河，冒着生命危险，因为在洪都拉斯我们没有机会过上好日子。特朗普赞扬墨西哥阻止移民入境。我要感谢墨西哥。墨西哥是如此令人难以置信，因为现在墨西哥尊重美国的领导了。

Trump’s administration has been criticized for harsh treatment of migrants at the US-Mexico border in in the past. Former Vice President Joe Biden raised the issue against Sunday in Nevada.What the hell is going on. In America ripping infants from their mother’s arms at the border.What are we doing? What have we become?Campaigning for Republicans in another part of Nevada, Trump accused Democrats of inviting criminals into the United States.The Democrat Party and its openly inviting millions of illegal aliens to break our laws, violate our borders and overwhelm our nation.
特朗普政府过去曾因在美墨边境粗暴对待移民而受到批评。美国前副总统拜登星期天在内华达州提出了这个问题。到底是怎么回事。在美国，在边境处，我们从母亲的怀抱中抢走她们的孩子。我们在做什么?我们变成了什么? 特朗普在内华达州的另一个地方为共和党竞选，他指责民主党人邀请罪犯进入美国。民主党及其公开邀请数以百万计的非法移民来破坏我们的法律，侵犯我们的边界，淹没我们的国家。

Trump has made it a political issue in the November 6th midterm election.He threatened to cut off regional aid and close the US-Mexico border if Mexico failed to hold the migrants.I will seal off the border before they come into this country and I’ll bring out our military, not our reserves.I’ll bring out our military. President of Guatemala and Honduras held a joint press conference Saturday inviting migrants to return home.
在11月6日的中期选举中，特朗普已经把它变成了一个政治问题。他威胁说，如果墨西哥未能扣留移民，他将切断地区援助，并关闭美墨边境。在他们进入这个国家之前，我将封锁边境，我将动员我们的军队，而不是我们的预备队。我要出动军队。危地马拉和洪都拉斯总统周六举行联合新闻发布会，邀请移民回国。

I want to assure Hondurans that we have a working team to receive this as well as a package of offers in terms of opportunities depending on what each citizen wants to do with his lifeand reassuring the United States that many have already returned. Approximately 2000, a little more, a little less but their figures that will have to tally with Honduras to be able give you definitively but 2000 people have already been returned in a safe manner to Honduras territory.But many others vow to find a way to get into the United States.
我想向洪都拉斯人民保证，我们有一个工作小组来接收这些信息，以及根据每个公民的生活意愿提供的一系列机会，并向美国保证，许多人已经回国。大约有2000人上下，但是这些人员的数据必须和洪都拉斯的数据相吻合才能给你们确切的数据，但是2000人已经以安全的方式返回洪都拉斯领土。但同时也有很多人发誓一定要想办法进入美国。
