Sheinbaum calls for national unity
President Claudia Sheinbaum asked all political parties, Congress and Mexican society to join in rejecting the violations of the human rights of fellow citizens in the United States. He reported that this Monday the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE) will present formal complaints for the death of 17 Mexicans linked to actions of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service (ICE).
“This is an issue not only for the Government of Mexico… I call on all political parties, everyone, the entire society… to be in solidarity with our fellow citizens in the United States. I don’t think anyone would like this situation,” he declared at the morning conference.
The president also reported contact with the US ambassador Ronald D. Johnson, who was receptive to the Mexican position. Foreign Minister Roberto Velasco Álvarez communicated the legal actions to be taken and Johnson perceived the concern of the Government of Mexico.
Sheinbaum clarified that a bilateral conflict is not sought, but maintained that it is necessary to raise our voice in the face of human rights violations. He called on the Permanent Commission of the Congress of the Union so that all parties, without exception, present requests for information and show their rejection.
