While Morena’s corcholatas continue to be unleashed in the campaign throughout the country, promoting themselves with tours, reports, presentations, and are exhibited in spectacular advertisements, billboards, magazine covers and interviews in the media, the Va Por México alliance continues to be stunned without giving color to who will be his pre-candidates for the presidency. The lukewarm opposition to the ruling party lacks figures and it is hard to see when it will be able to start raising the citizen’s spirits. Although De la Madrid, Gurría, Téllez, Creel, Osorio Chong, Paredes, Mauricio Vila or Ruíz Massieu are mentioned among many others, the truth is that the horse is weak as Don Fidel said, because still none have the necessary drag for La Big. It will be necessary to put a rooster on them so that they wake up because the process of choosing a candidate, the campaign and the election, are just around the corner. Heloooooouuuu!
On January 23, 2019, a few days after assuming the presidency, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador sent the then Secretary of the Interior Olga Sánchez Cordero to Ciudad Hidalgo, Chiapas, to welcome thousands of migrants to extend them a card. of visitors for humanitarian reasons. Accompanied by Undersecretary Alejandro Encinas, the retired minister pointed out at the border bridge with Guatemala that AMLO extended his generous hand to Central American migrants and accepted their orderly, safe and regular entry. In front of the media, Sánchez Cordero assured that with this card the benefited migrants would have the opportunity to work in Mexico and obtain a salary, in order to improve the border cities. Accompanied by Governor Rutilio Escandón and the then head of migration, Tonatiuh Guillén, Sánchez Cordero allowed herself to be photographed welcoming a migrant child, to specify that our country’s migration policy also provided for, in addition to visitor cards, Worker and Border Visitor. More than 4 years later, on May 11, Title 42 concluded, which allowed US immigration officials to immediately expel undocumented immigrants from their territory to their country of last transit, which is Mexico, but Title 8 returns, which establishes that it will only be accepted in the border to people who have scheduled an appointment with immigration authorities through the CBP One app, who are a slim minority. As a result, our country’s northern and southern borders are receiving thousands of men, women, and children who have overwhelmed shelters and aid stations, putting host cities and states in dire economic predicament. AMLO’s policy of a generous hand did not work because migrants do not want to live in Mexico as visitors or as workers, but to arrive in the United States where many already have relatives and want to achieve the “American dream.” For now, the Biden administration and the governments of states like Arizona and Texas are militarizing the border line and presuming to their voters that unwanted migration will not pass into their territory
Speaking of the generosity of the 4t, this weekend the Mexican Agency for International Development Cooperation (AMEXCID), in collaboration with the National Institute of Geography and Statistics (INEGI), gave away 8,000 tablets to the National Office of Statistics and Information of Cuba, for the realization of the next census on the island. Surely, this new gesture of solidarity with the Cuban dictatorship is due to the fact that low-income Mexican children have already been equipped with tablets and the Internet, so necessary in remote and marginalized areas of the country. Right Secretary Leticia Ramírez?
With 518 votes, the national councilors of the PRI ratified Alejandro Moreno Cárdenas to extend his term as head of the CEN of the tricolor party. However, this almost total support will not be enough for each of the councilors to occupy a place as a multi-member or relative majority legislator, if they win the next elections, and thus collect the favor of having given Alito the benefit of continuing driving the National PRI at will. It will be necessary to consider that in the last elections of 2018 and 2021, all the seats in the Senate and the seats in the Chamber of Deputies were occupied on a multi-member basis, but in the next elections they will go in coalition and the possibilities of being in the elections will be reduced. final lists. For now, Rubén Moreira, Carolina Viggiano, Paloma Sánchez, Norma Aceves and Alito himself are at the top of the lists to occupy a multi-seater seat in the Senate for the LXVI legislature. For hundreds of other hopefuls, thanks for your vote, there for the other!
The lawyers of the Canadian fund Lion Mexico Consolidated (LMC), to which the Mexican government could pay 47 million dollars for allegedly violating NAFTA, were accused of conflicts of interest before the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), due to the alleged ties they maintained with Eduardo Siqueiros, the arbitrator imposed by themselves in the legal process against the Tommasi Olavarría family. The Tommasi brought before the CCI the case for which they were stripped of their assets, after the bad practices of LMC in the development of a tourism project in Quintana Roo. In the arbitration it was discovered that Siqueiros was a close friend of Emilio González de Castilla, legal representative of the fund in Mexico, and business partner of Mayer Brown, LMC’s US law firm. As if that were not enough, Horacio Grigera, president of the arbitral tribunal, maintained direct communication with Gonzàlez de Castilla. Despite the inconsistencies, they assure me, the CCI did not want to investigate in depth, leaving the Mexican family at a disadvantage.
Without support from CONADE and the federal government, which left them to their own devices, they had to seek financing even from the sale of swimsuits, but with courage and dignity, the Mexican Artistic Swimming Team won the gold medal at the World Cup. which was held in Egypt, leaving behind the representatives of Italy and France. Of course, on Saturday night the government of the 4t took the opportunity to congratulate them via twitter for their “historic participation”.
