Sheinbaum defends success of voluntary disarmament

President highlights results of the weapons delivery program with ecclesiastical support.

President Claudia Sheinbaum defended this Thursday the “Yes to Disarmament, Yes to Peace” program as a successful initiative to remove firearms from Mexican homes. Each weapon surrendered, he said, represents a possible life saved.

“It has been very successful and also everything we do to disarm peacefully is saving a life. It is removing an instrument that can cause death. It is pacifying,” he said in his morning conference from the National Palace.

The program allows the anonymous delivery of weapons without investigation and provides financial support in exchange. According to the president, collaboration with the Catholic Church has been key. This Thursday he will lead a day in the atrium of the Basilica of Guadalupe, where the program began last year.

Voluntary disarmament and results

Voluntary disarmament is part of the government’s pacification policy, which seeks to reduce violence without direct confrontation. Sheinbaum highlighted that the trust generated by religious spaces facilitates citizen participation.

To commemorate the International Day of the Destruction of Firearms, the Secretariat of National Defense will soon present a balance of the weapons secured and destroyed. The president announced that this report will include data on the number of weapons removed from circulation since the launch of the program.
