特朗普威胁要关闭整个边境,数百名移民试图冲向加州的入境口岸



Images and videos posted on social media Sunday afternoon showed hundreds of migrants from the leading Central American caravan pushing past Mexican riot police and rushing the border at the port of entry in San Ysidro, Calif., in a major test for both U.S. border authorities and Mexican officials.

周日下午发布在社交媒体上的图片和视频显示,数百名来自中美洲主要车队的移民在加州圣思多罗(San Ysidro)的入境口岸挤过墨西哥防暴警察,冲击美墨边境边境,这对美国边境当局和墨西哥官员都是一个重大考验。

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said it suspended northbound and southbound crossings for both pedestrians and vehicles at the San Ysidro port of entry at approximately 11:30 a.m. local time. It later tweeted that the pedestrian crossings had re-opened, a little more than four hours after the initial closure. The vehicle lanes re-opened at approximately 5 p.m. local time, five-and-a-half hours after they were closed.

美国海关和边境保护局(CBP)表示,当地时间上午11点30分左右,在圣思多罗入境口岸,暂停行人和车辆的南北过境。该公司后来在推特上发帖称,人行横道在最初关闭四个多小时后重新开放。车道在当地时间下午5点左右重新开放,也就是关闭5个半小时之后。



Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said in a statement that some migrants "attempted to breach legacy fence infrastructure along the border and sought to harm CBP personnel by throwing projectiles at them.

美国国土安全部部长尼尔森(Kirstjen Nielsen)在一份声明中说,一些移民“试图破坏边境传统的围栏基础设施,并试图向边境管理人员投掷东西,以伤害他们。”

"As I have continually stated, DHS will not tolerate this type of lawlessness and will not hesitate to shut down ports of entry for security and public safety reasons," Nielsen said. "We will also seek to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law anyone who destroys federal property, endangers our frontline operators, or violates our nation’s sovereignty."

尼尔森说:“正如我一直说的那样,国土安全部不会容忍这种无法无天的行为,并会毫不犹豫地出于安全和公共安全的原因关闭入境口岸。”
“我们还将根据法律最大限度地起诉任何破坏联邦财产、危害我们的前线工作人员或侵犯我们国家主权的人。”



The situation Sunday was not unprecedented. In 2013, during the Obama administration, Border Patrol agents used pepper spray to fend off a crowd of approximately 100 migrants who attempted to rush the San Ysidro port of entry. The migrants in that episode also reportedly threw rocks and bottles at U.S. authorities.

周日的情况并不是没有先例。
2013年,在奥巴马政府执政期间,边境巡逻人员使用胡椒喷雾驱赶约100名试图冲进圣伊西德罗入境口岸的移民。
据报道,这一事件中的移民还向美国当局投掷石块和瓶子。

Within an hour on Sunday, the group from the caravan that rushed toward the border largely dispersed. Most of the migrants in the group were men.

冲击事件发生前后时间不到一个小时,从移民安置地冲向边境的这群人基本上已经散去了。
这个群体中的大多数人都是男性。

Fox News had confirmed early Sunday through an organizer for Pueblo Sin Fronteras, the group helping organize the leading Central American migrant caravan, that members of the caravan were planning to attempt to cross the port of entry at San Ysidro later in the day.

福克斯新闻(Fox News)周日早间通过帮助组织中美洲移民车队的一名组织者证实,这些冲击边境的移民曾计划当天晚些时候悄悄越过圣思多罗的入境口岸。

Footage posted by ITV correspondent Emma Murphy also showed several U.S. Border Patrol helicopters reportedly flying low overhead on the Mexican side of the border.

ITV记者艾玛·墨菲(Emma Murphy)发布的视频还显示,据报道,几架美国边境巡逻直升机在墨西哥边境上空低空飞行。

In anticipation of the planned migrant effort, U.S. authorities said they had deployed additional personnel to the San Ysidro port of entry on Sunday, including Air and Marine agents.

美国当局预计移民工作将按计划进行,因此说,他们星期天已经向圣思多罗入境港增派了人员,包括空军和海军陆战队人员。

Other video showed migrants pushing toward a border fence chanting, "Yes we can.”

其他视频显示,移民一边不停冲击边境围栏,一边高喊“是的,我们可以”。



The dramatic escalation at the border came as Mexico's incoming government denied reports Saturday that it had struck a deal with the White House to keep asylum-seekers in the country while their claims move through U.S. immigration courts. President Trump, for his part, again threatened to close the entire southern border if no deal could be reached between the two counties.

在边境局势急剧升级之际,墨西哥新政府否认了周六的报道,即墨西哥政府与白宫达成了一项协议,在寻求庇护者的申请通过美国移民法院审理的同时,将他们留在墨西哥。
特朗普总统则再次威胁说,如果两个国家之间不能达成协议,他将关闭整个南部边境。

On Saturday, the first episode of caravan-related violence directed at U.S. authorities was reported by U.S. Border Patrol in Arizona, as a 31-year-old Honduran man who apparently split off from the caravan threw rocks at agents and a helicopter after setting a tree on fire.

周六,美国边境巡逻队在亚利桑那州报告了一起移民针对美国当局的暴力事件,一名31岁的洪都拉斯男子从移民车队离开,他在放火点燃一棵树后,向巡逻的直升机和队员投掷石块。
