The president presented in his morning press conference at the National Palace the health official and two executives of the Federal Energy Commission (CFE), who refuted the accusations.
In his introduction, the president explained the use of simulation by the opponents of his government, as a central element of the anti-democratic policy and showed how they respected the laws in the form to violate them in the background, and want to continue applying the same model already decharacterized.
He assured “that hypocrisy no longer works, that double discourse is not accepted and asked that each person make their own reflection on the corrupt cynics and hypocrites.”
He gave as an example of the simulation the president of the National Electoral Institute (INE), Lorenzo Córdova, who, being the executive of an independent entity, led a few days ago the convention of a political party, the conservative National Action, when he should be impartial.
In the case of López-Gatell, the president rejected the decision of a federal judge for the Attorney General of the Republic to open an investigation for omission and homicide in the treatment of Covid-19 applied, and gave him full support in the legal field. , political and moral.
He attributed the judge’s decision to the decomposition and immorality of the conservatives. It is not only an injustice, it is an act of bad faith, I would say of hate, he reiterated.
López-Gatell replied to the accusations and explained that Mexico acts against the pandemic in accordance with scientific criteria endorsed by the World Health Organization, including vaccination, and it was correct to start with older adults, people with comorbidities and risk sectors such as teachers and staff. Of the health.
For his part, Miguel Santiago Reyes, general director of CFE Internacional, and Mario Morales, director of contracts, exposed the fallacies of the Iberdrola company and the powerful commercial chain OXXO against the electricity reform promoted by the Government in its rescue of the sector. energetic.
With data and statistical tables, both executives demonstrated the lies woven around the fact that these companies generate clean energy and the CFE is dirty, and they were meticulous in the figures of how and how much alternative electricity each one generates, and the multimillion-dollar profits that it has reported. the privatization of the sector.
They demonstrated with data even from the companies themselves how alternative energies -such as solar and wind- represent a tiny part of the total generation, and both well below hydro, the cleanest of all and the one that produces the most CFE.
Private companies, particularly Spanish, American and, to a lesser degree, Mexican, try to prevent at all costs the electrical reform through which control of generation and distribution would pass to the CFE, which is not convenient for them because they no longer receive compensation, pay what they consume extra and comply with taxes.
