Mr. Manuel Véliz, 30, from Guatemala
What happened this morning?
-We participated in a peaceful demonstration. We went to, I think it’s a railway booth, and the situation got a little bit tense, but nothing serious, no beatings or anything.
And what’s the plan now?
-Well, to keep waiting, with the hope of being able to cross.
What are you waiting for?
-Well, to have the option. It’s difficult but not impossible, to be able to cross.
Are you going to try to cross again?
-If it’s possible, yes. Otherwise, by force, no.
Did you seek asylum?
-Yes, I applied for asylum.
How was it to march towards the border but not crossing it?
-Well, it’s frustrating, but we know it’s difficult and we must be patient.
Do you think that if you try more times, it will be possible?
-I think it will be possible when all people will be like one voice, one same step. And not some of them divided on one side and others on another side.
