The CNTE does not remain silent
The CNTE teachers took over Paseo de la Reforma this Wednesday. They stood at the Torre del Caballito to denounce what they call a “serious affront” against students, parents and teachers.
The target of his fury: Mario Delgado, head of the SEP. The decision to advance the end of classes to June 5—when the official calendar says July 15—is, according to them, “irresponsible, unilateral and authoritarian.”
“The essential motive of the federal government is strictly political and economic to stop the teacher protest,” the organization launched.
Behind the high temperatures and the World Cup
The government argues extreme heat and the Soccer World Cup. But the CNTE calls it “lies and false intentions.” The real reason? Stop the mobilizations for a new ISSSTE Law.
And they don’t just target the government. They also accuse Alfonso Cepeda Salas, leader of the SNTE, of operating as part of a “charro union mafia” at the service of the so-called fourth transformation.
Dialogue? They don’t see disposition
The CNTE demands that Claudia Sheinbaum cancel the early closure and open a national direct dialogue table. But they assure that neither the SEP nor the Government show any desire to sit down and talk.
“They can’t decide,” the headlines tell them, according to the Coordinator.
The mobilizations, they warn, “are not up for negotiation.” They will continue until the ISSSTE Law of 2007 is repealed.
Political theater continues its course. Teachers do not let their guard down.
