As you saw in our live report in the last segment - the northern highway was opened 10 minutes ago - almost exactly four hours after it was blocked.
But, the cane farmers have not given up. About 500 farmers showed up today and there was real rage against ASR BSI and the government at SIRDI today - as verbalized by this young lady - the daughter of a cane farming family - who had strong words for the members of the PUP northern Caucasus about their leader. She spoke in Spanish.
Basically she said: you guys have made a lot of promises and haven't fulfilled them, especially John Briceno. And they don't want words anymore they want them to do what it is they say they will do. She also said the PM doesn't have the strength - to use a nice word - to walk or stand with the cane farmers.
