In Oaxaca, highway blockade removed but airport blockade remains
Teaching students' airport blockade has forced the cancellation of 70
flights
Published on Wednesday, April 28, 2021

A blockade at Oaxaca city’s airport has caused major flight disruptions and
threatened to jeopardize Covid-19 vaccine supplies, while a separate
blockade on the Oaxaca coastal highway in Puerto Escondido has been lifted.
At the airport, where teachers in training are protesting, 70 flights had
been canceled by Wednesday morning. Earlier in the day, National Guardsmen
were prevented from accessing Covid-19 vaccines destined for 117,000 state
education workers but an agreement was negotiated with the protesters to
allow access to the medication.
The teaching students are demanding that all graduates be given automatic
job placements.
They appropriated public transit vehicles yesterday, and were expected to
protest at vaccination centers today, where educational workers are
receiving their shots.
During the last two weeks they have set fire to the offices of the state
education authority, hijacked transit buses and blockaded roads and
highways.
The airport blockade began Sunday but there were signs Wednesday morning
that a settlement was imminent. State education representatives and
students met for nine hours, wrapping up at 7:00 a.m. Wednesday with high
expectations that the impasse would soon be over.
On the coast, meanwhile, a four-day blockade in a territorial dispute that
paralyzed access to Puerto Escondido ended Tuesday night after Governor
Alejandro Murat addressed protesting municipal authorities and residents.
The mayor of Santa María Colotepec installed a protest camp

on Highway 200 on Friday over a decades old dispute with neighboring San
Pedro Mixtepec over land within the city of Puerto Escondido.
Officials in Colotepec accused their counterparts in Mixtepec of
influencing an agrarian court in underhanded fashion, which began when they
presented a constitutional argument before the court in 2018.
Murat called on protesters to trust in authorities adjudicating the
agrarian dispute, and also proposed a new peace agreement between the two
communities.
